Carbon You Can Touch
Carbon markets ask for a lot of trust. We'd rather show you the receipts. Every tonne is tracked from source to soil. British feedstock, British farms, independent verification. The carbon stays locked away for centuries. And if you want to see it yourself, you can.
Most Carbon Credits Are Hard to Believe In
Many credits represent avoided emissions, future promises, or distant projects that are difficult to verify. Numbers on a registry, disconnected from anything you can see or touch.
Biochar is different. It's a physical product. You fund its creation, and it locks carbon away for over 100 years while improving the land it's applied to.
This is removal, not emissions avoidance. Measured, verified, and durable.
From Surplus Biomass to Verified Credit
Every tonne we issue follows a documented chain of custody, from biomass sourcing to soil application.
Source
We collect surplus biomass from local forestry operations, green waste producers, and land managers. Material that would otherwise decompose or be burnt, releasing its carbon back into the atmosphere.
Convert
The biomass is heated to between 500°C–900°C without oxygen. This process, known as pyrolysis, transforms unstable organic carbon into biochar, a stable form that resists breakdown for centuries.
Verify
Every batch is tracked. Feedstock origin, operating parameters, carbon content, and chain of custody are recorded and independently audited.
Apply
The biochar goes into various land applications on partner farms, creating a carbon sink while improving soil health and crop resilience.
Biochar in the Carbon Removal Market
Among durable carbon removal methods, biochar has moved from research to real-world delivery faster than any other approach.
Total biochar carbon removal credits purchased, with volumes tripling year-over-year through 2024.
Actual removal credits delivered and verified. Biochar leads because it can deliver at scale today.
The largest buyer base of any carbon removal method, with nearly five times more purchasers than the next most popular approach.
How Long Does Carbon Stay Put?
Built for Credibility
High-integrity carbon removal is about being able to stand behind every claim you make.
Based in the UK
Our operations are UK-based. You can visit our sites, meet the team, and see exactly where your money goes.
100+ Year Durability
Biochar's carbon structure resists decomposition for centuries to millennia. Unlike forestry or soil carbon, it doesn't depend on ongoing maintenance or favourable conditions.
Independent Verification
Every credit is issued under recognised standards with third-party audits. The data is public. We don't mark our own homework.
Soil That Gets Better
Biochar has been shown to improve water retention, nutrient availability, and microbial activity. The farms we work with see real benefits.
Our First Partnership
Bennetts Associates
"As the first architects in the world to have approved science-based targets, we wanted carbon removal we could stand behind. With Restord, we can visit the site, see the biochar, and know exactly what we've paid for. That level of transparency matters to us."

Common Questions
Traditional offsets often represent avoided emissions—paying to prevent CO₂ that might have been released. Biochar is actual removal. We take carbon that's already in the biosphere and lock it into a stable form for 100+ years.
One tonne of CO₂ equivalent, durably removed and stored. The price reflects the real cost of sourcing sustainable biomass, running pyrolysis equipment, independent verification, and applying biochar to farmland.
Biochar's stability comes from its aromatic carbon structure, formed during pyrolysis. Unlike organic matter that decomposes in years, biochar resists microbial breakdown for centuries. Studies of ancient Terra Preta soils in the Amazon show biochar remaining stable for thousands of years.
Yes. We're based on a family farm in Liskeard, Cornwall. Partners and potential buyers are welcome to see the operation firsthand.
We work with organisations of different sizes. Whether you're looking to remove 10 tonnes or 500, get in touch and we'll discuss what works for you.
