Our models
Two ways to remove a tonne
Buy the removal from us, or make it inside your own operation and keep it. Same chain of proof, same certification, entirely different place on your balance sheet — and most buyers are never told the difference.
Model 01 · Offsetting
You buy the tonne
Our own facilities. We produce the biochar, certify the removal and sell the credit — the tonnes are additional to any buyer's value chain.
We source the fire-risk residue, run it through our own facilities, verify the removal and issue you a serialised credit. It is additional to your value chain — a contribution against the emissions you cannot eliminate. This is what most people mean when they say “carbon credit”.

You keep the tonne
Units sited inside a partner's operation, converting their own residue. The removal lands in their value chain — their scope 3, not an open-market credit.
We site a unit at your operation and convert the residue you already produce. The removal lands inside your own footprint rather than being sold to anyone else — and the biochar and the process heat stay with you. If you have a biomass residue you currently pay to dispose of, this is the model that turns it into an asset.
Discuss a unitSide by side
Which one is yours?
| Offsetting | Insetting | |
|---|---|---|
| Where does the removal happen? | At a Recarbono facility, on feedstock we source. | Inside your operation, on residue you already produce. |
| Who owns the tonne? | You buy it. A serialised credit is issued to you and retired on your claim. | You keep it. The removal is generated within your value chain and never enters the open market. |
| Where does it count? | Against residual emissions you cannot eliminate — a contribution outside your value chain. | Inside your own footprint, where value-chain emissions are accounted. |
| What do you supply? | Nothing. You contract for volume and a delivery window. | Your residue stream, a site, and an offtake for the biochar or the heat. |
| What do we supply? | The facility, the feedstock, the certification and the credit. | The unit, the measurement chain, the certification and the operating know-how. |
| Who is it for? | Buyers with a residual footprint and a durable-removal mandate. | Operators with a biomass residue problem — agri-industry, forestry, food processing. |
Both models run on the same chain of proof: the same H/C gate, the same accredited laboratories, the same conservative accounting. Only the commercial shape differs.
