Carbon-Negative Technology

The soil amendment that actually removes carbon from the atmosphere

The Process Difference

Mining Icon Conventional Vermiculite Mining

  • Source: Open-pit mining of finite mineral deposits
  • Extraction: Heavy machinery, blasting, excavation
  • Processing: High-temperature thermal expansion (1000°C+)
  • Transport: Long-haul shipping from remote mining sites
  • Carbon Impact: +1.03 tCO₂e per short ton
  • Environmental Cost: Habitat destruction, water contamination, finite resource depletion

Forestry Icon BioVermiculite™ Forestry Process

  • Source: Sustainably managed forest biomass (sawdust, bark waste)
  • Extraction: Efficient, low-impact collection from timber operations
  • Processing: Optimized thermal conversion (lower energy requirement)
  • Transport: Regional supply chain with minimal shipping distance
  • Carbon Impact: –3.53 tCO₂e per short ton (net negative)
  • Environmental Benefit: Upcycles waste, sequesters atmospheric carbon, renewable

–3.53 tCO₂e/ST

BioVermiculite™ Sequesters 3.5 Metric Tons of CO₂ Equivalent Per Ton

Carbon Intensity Comparison

Carbon intensity comparison chart

Conventional Vermiculite

+1.03 tCO₂e/ST

Open-pit mining, long-haul transport, high-temperature expansion. A net carbon source.

BioVermiculite™

–3.53 tCO₂e/ST

Upcycled feedstock, efficient processing, regional supply chain. A net carbon sink.

BioVermiculite™ delivers the same function with a net-negative carbon footprint. Every ton applied to soil permanently sequesters 3.5 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent, actively fighting climate change while improving plant performance.
