Charcoal reductants also called ‘recarburisers’ are specialised high quality carbon content materials, used to adjust the carbon content of steel and other ferroalloys before casting whilst it is still in liquid form.

Low or no mineral content in the carbon source is critical to prevent impure steel production.

Reductants from some of the Invasive Native Scrub timbers makes the lowest ash content sustainable source of carbon for the steel industry.

Biochar is the base product created by processing biomass using pyrolysis. Carbon in the soil can last 1-2,000 years acting to retain water and provide high surface area substrates for bacterial activity and soil enzymatic reactions important for soil health

Depending on the desired product mix we are able to supply a range products.

• Activated Carbon for use in filtration of liquids and gasses to reduce impurities and toxins.
• Biochar enhanced fertilisers tailored specifically to landholders soil characteristics and nutrient profiles
• Refined wood aromatics (wood vinegar) to supplement conventional fertiliser products, fungicides and pesticides.

Salvaging timbers from the removal of Invasive Native Scrub gives reliable supply of valuable, unique and rare timbers on to the world market for high end products such as musical instruments, craftworks, art, high end parquetry.

We bring a new level of reliability of supply to this market.

Our manufacturing process delivers surplus energy which can be returned to the market in the form of renewable base-load electricity or stored as gas.

In regional areas the ability to access dispatchable energy for industrial and mining purposes is of increasing importance as the grid becomes more reliant on solar and wind power generation.
