Biochar-based material
Brand: Made of Air
Applications: Exterior and interior cladding and furniture
Made of Air is a radical new biochar-based material made of 90% atmospheric carbon that is designed to combat climate change. Made of Air materials remove more CO2 from the atmosphere than it has emitted in making it. This is a global first: removing the most CO2 of any building product available. The materials are composed of no fossil-based components. Instead, they are formed of waste biomass that has been baked into a solid char- where the CO2 is converted into carbon. By repurposing and eventually landfilling, the material completes a larger circle: the carbon loop, returning the carbon we originally burned into the atmosphere, back to the ground.
