While conventional agricultural practices are a major cause of climate impacts, restoring soil health and strengthening its natural ability to capture carbon from the atmosphere will have immediate and effective net-positive impacts on the climate.
We use wood from burned forests. Without this intervention, the wood would rot for 60–70 years, emitting CO2 and methane, which is 100 times more harmful.
North America is facing a growing environmental crisis that threatens both its forests and agriculture. The convergence of climate change, wildfire intensity, and waste management challenges demands innovative solutions. SuSoTM is a unique substrate made by PowerWood, from shredded, burned timber.
SuSo turns burned timber into a nutrient-rich substrate which can provide mechanical benefit to soil, increase moisture retention, lock in carbon and slowly add back nutrients.
SuSo transforms fire-damaged timber into a premium soil amendment through advanced thermal processing technology. Our Converter system eliminates burned timber and wildfire fuel, while creating a carbon-negative product that regenerates agricultural land.
The fertiliser industry plays a vital role in the Canadian economy, generating $23 billion annually and supporting over 76,000 jobs.
