About
Carbon Kapture is a UK startup (founded 2020, based in Poole) that partners with shellfish farmers to grow sugar kelp on ropes, then pyrolyzes the harvested seaweed into biochar which is distributed to farmers as a soil amendment. The company sells carbon credits based on this sequestration and, as of 2025, operates a network of 12 farms across Ireland, the UK, France, Spain and Portugal, with expansion plans further afield.
