About
EcoChar is a France-based company that develops projects in agroforestry and regenerative agriculture, producing biochar as an agricultural bio-stimulant and green charcoal briquettes from biomass via pyrolysis units it operates. The company targets soil restoration without chemical fertilizers and offers an alternative to wood charcoal to reduce deforestation, using pyrogasification at around 1000°C in a low-oxygen environment to co-produce biochar. It is a very small operation (~3 employees) with no registry listings and limited public signals.
