Verde Resources announced a new supply agreement with Biochar Solutions that will provide up to 38,500 tons of engineered biochar per year, beginning in 2026. The deal is designed to secure a steady feedstock for Verde’s BioAsphalt™ technology and to create a revenue‑sharing model for carbon removal credits, aligning financial incentives with environmental outcomes.
The agreement follows a successful proof‑of‑concept project completed in December 2024 with Oregon Biochar Solutions, a subsidiary of Biochar Solutions, and the National Center for Asphalt Technology. That pilot produced eight verified carbon‑removal credits issued by Puro.earth, demonstrating the technical feasibility of combining biochar with asphalt and the potential for monetizing carbon sequestration.
Verde’s COO Karl Strahl, who also sits on the company’s board, highlighted the partnership’s strategic fit. “We have been producing engineered biochar since 2008, and this collaboration expands our ability to deploy biochar in high‑volume infrastructure applications with measurable durability and verified carbon outcomes,” he said. The agreement is a foundational step for scaling BioAsphalt™ and for advancing Verde’s vertically integrated carbon‑sequestering model, which the company has positioned as a key differentiator in the growing market for carbon‑negative construction materials.
While the deal does not immediately change Verde’s revenue figures, it establishes a critical supply chain component that will support future commercialization, particularly with its commercial partner Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions. The revenue‑sharing arrangement for carbon credits also provides a new income stream that could offset the high upfront costs of scaling production and help improve margins as the company moves beyond the proof‑of‑concept stage.
The partnership underscores Verde’s strategy of leveraging asset‑light licensing and strategic alliances rather than building its own manufacturing facilities. By securing a reliable biochar source, Verde can focus on technology development and market expansion while mitigating supply‑chain risk, positioning the company for accelerated growth as demand for sustainable infrastructure materials rises.
