Our biochar products have received the European Biochar Certificate (EBC) in the AgroOrganic certification class and the EBC C-Sink Certificate for the third consecutive year. As India’s only EBC-certified biochar and C-Sink producer, we are a leader in delivering high-quality sustainable biochar to the market.
The EBC is among the most comprehensive standards for biochar production globally. Adhering to these standards guarantees that we meet the highest environmental and quality benchmarks, from sustainable biomass sourcing to advanced production methods.The certification audit, conducted by a third-party in June, involved a rigorous review of our processes, site practices and product quality. Biochars certified as EBC-AgroOrganic meet EU standards for organic agriculture and can be use for Indian organic farmers exporting to Europe.
Setting a new standard for biochar
Rather than burn biomass, we produce biochar through a cleaner and more efficient thermochemical process that maximises carbon sequestration and minimises environmental impact.
Our biochar production process involves:
— High-temperature reactors: Reactors reach optimal temperatures to maximise carbonisation.
— Automated feedstock handling: Smooth, uninterrupted feedstock processing reduces manual intervention and downtime.
— Precision temperature control: Controlled temperatures ensure uniform biochar composition and higher yields.
— Advanced emissions control: Filtration and emissions management systems ensure our process is environmentally friendly.
— Frequent emission testing: Regular testing ensures that our machines do not pollute.
For use in large-scale agriculture – and beyond
Our research shows that our EBC-certified biochar can help plants – and the planet. It has been proven to enhance water holding capacity, reduce bulk density, and improve yields, all while contributing to global carbon dioxide removal (CDR) efforts. We are also researching biochar’s use in the construction industry.
In addition to helping farmers, this certification is important for the value of MASH Makes Carbon Dioxide Removal certificates, also known as carbon credits. As an EBC C-Sink -certified biochar producer, our carbon removal credits are proven to meet the highest standards of credibility and transparency for buyers looking to enhance their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) profiles.
We have ambitious plans to scale our biochar production throughout India and beyond. Whether you’re a farmer seeking a sustainable soil enhancer or a company purchasing high-quality verified carbon removal certificates, MASH Makes is on a journey to produce the highest quality, certified biochar to help you grow more sustainably.
