carbon-negative.
cost-effective.
circular.
charly creates materials, products & projects with biochar for a net zero economy.
We offer support for leaders to decarbonise their business.
black. but green.
We build our solutions on biochar from waste biomass – each kilogram locks up to 3 kg of CO2.
Combined with plastics, the natural black filler helps decarbonise supply chains while enhancing product quality.
Reach your sustainability & financial targets, ensure legal compliance, and lead innovation with charly.
our services
charly designs your carbon-negative materials, circular products and cost-effective business models
charly material
We explore strategies and possible reuse options for your own or external raw materials, develop carbon-negative materials that fit your use case, do standardised material testing, and help build scalable supply chains.
charly product
We develop creative concepts for high-quality durable or reusable circular products, help you launch a pilot series, check the economics, and support you in scaling production for a regular product series.
charly footprint
We calculate the final material footprint, help design circular business models, support with certified additional carbon removal, and help you communicate your sustainability success story to shareholders and the public.
why biochar
biochar is the natural solution to replace plastics, remove CO2 emissions, and enhance material features
natural
- based on waste biomass from forestry, agriculture or industry
- through pyrolysis, the CO2 inside the biomass is locked in the biochar as permanent carbon
local
- a growing supply base with a wide variety of suitable input biomass
- high scaling potential, independent from global supply chains
circular
- best used in long-life, durable and reusable products for industry & commerce
- remains stable during recycling and is recarbonisable
CO2 eq/kg per kg of final composite
carbon-negative
- each kg of biochar stores up to 3 kg of CO2 permanently
- combined with recycled plastics, the carbon footprint can be as low as -1.25 CO2 eq per kg material
replaces fossil polymers
- avoids the use of fossil fuel-based plastics by up to 40%
- up to 3 kg CO2 eq/kg lower than virgin PP
cost compared to carbon-negative bio plastics
cost-effective
- lowest cost to lock CO2 inside a material (carbon removal)
- works like a mineral filler for many polymers and other materials
better materials
- black, non-toxic, odourless colourant for elegant products
- as an engineered filler it creates highly stable, heat and UV resistant materials
boosts recycled plastics
- upgrades features and look of recycled plastics (PCR / PIR)
- supports a 100% "waste"-based economy
