Regeneration Doesn't Follow;
It Leads.
Our Commitment to Regeneration:
From cradle-to-grave, we are actively engaged in
every facet of our carbon's lifecycle.
Verification & Credibility
Sitos Group's commitment to transparency and accountability in our sustainability efforts is further reinforced through our partnership with Biosystems Engineering PLLC, a certified B-Corp specializing in Biochar Life Cycle Assessments (LCA). Biosystems Engineering PLLC conducted a comprehensive LCA for Sitos Group, meticulously evaluating every aspect of our production processes. This assessment examined the entire lifecycle of our biochar, from raw material extraction to manufacturing, distribution, and sequestration practices.
The accreditation from Biosystems Engineering PLLC serves as a testament to the rigorous and eco-conscious approach taken by Sitos Group. It provides third-party validation of our company's regenerative practices and carbon reduction efforts.
Fostering Regeneration
in every aspect of our operation.
-
Landfill Diversion
Repurposing municipal wood as biochar feedstock, diverting it from landfills and contributing to both waste management and carbon sequestration.
-
GHG Emission Reduction
Sitos Group's biochar is incorporated into compost immediately after creation. This application helps reduce GHG emissions that occur during natural composting.
-
Regenerative Agriculture Practices
Sitos Group's biochar is directly integrated into vineyards practicing regenerative agricultural methods, aligning with the Sustainability in Progress (SIP) regime.
-
Green Energy
Machine operational technology is powered by renewable energy from ReGen Monterey, which is generated through the conversion of landfill gases like methane into electricity.
Regenerative Agriculture (RA)
Regenerative agriculture fosters regeneration by enhancing soil health and reducing the environmental impact of farming. Through practices like crop rotation, cover cropping, and minimal tillage, it improves soil fertility, sequesters carbon, and reduces the need for synthetic chemicals. Additionally, it promotes biodiversity, restores natural habitats, and conserves water, contributing to a more regenerative and eco-friendly farming approach.
Biochar’s Carbon Sequestration Capabilities
With widespread adoption in agriculture, California has the potential to annually sequester 11.3 metric tons of CO2 per acre through the extensive use of biochar.
Biochar’s Water Saving Capabilities
If biochar was widely deployed in agriculture, California could potentially save an annual volume of 11.3 million acre-feet of water used for irrigation.
