Durable Carbon Removal,
Enhanced Soil Resilience
We transform local waste wood into permanent carbon storage, delivering measurable climate impact alongside real agricultural benefits.
Nature's Carbon Cycle,
Redirected
Wood decomposes, releases CO₂, and the cycle repeats endlessly. Restord intervenes.
By subjecting sustainably sourced waste biomass to intense heat in an oxygen-limited environment—a process called pyrolysis—we lock that carbon into a remarkably stable structure: Biochar.
The result is permanent carbon removal that simultaneously regenerates agricultural soils across Cornwall and beyond.
From Waste to Value
Source
We collect waste wood from Cornish forestry and arboricultural operations that would otherwise decompose or be burned.
Transform
Biomass is heated above 500°C without oxygen. This prevents combustion and crystallizes the carbon into a stable form.
Apply
The resulting biochar is applied to agricultural soils, improving structure, water retention, and nutrient availability.
Verify
Every tonne is measured, certified, and registered—providing high-integrity carbon removal credits you can trust.
Biochar Beyond Storage
Permanent carbon removal with tangible, real-world utility.
Agriculture
Acting as a "coral reef" for soil microbes, our biochar improves water retention and nutrient uptake across Cornish farmland.
- Enhanced drought resilience
- Reduced fertiliser dependency
- SFI scheme alignment
