COB group has officially announced the launch of COB carbon, a new company focused on reducing CO₂ emissions across value chains through the use of biochar. COB carbon converts organic residual materials into high-quality biochar and strategically connects these products with suitable end markets. Its work centers on quality, scalability, and economic viability.
The company is managed by Christiaan Olde Bolhaar and Nils Rikhof. Ralf Bußmann, Manager Carbon Solutions, has also joined as a biochar specialist, further strengthening the company's technical and professional expertise.
COB carbon sees biochar not as a standardized product, but as an individualized solution. This approach covers the full process, from selecting input materials and process technology to defining application areas and commercialization strategies. "Our core activity at COB carbon is to work closely with our partners to decarbonize their existing value chains and develop tailored solutions that meet the specific requirements of different customers and applications," explains Christiaan Olde Bolhaar. In addition to strategic and technical consulting, the company markets both biochar and CO₂ certificates.

As part of the COB group, COB carbon builds on strong roots in the substrate and agricultural industries. Biochar, as a high-quality raw material, is expected to play an important role in sustainable substrates. At the same time, COB carbon's biochar solutions offer applications across a broad range of industries.
The company follows an input-first strategy, recognizing that the selected raw material is key to determining quality, process costs, and overall economic efficiency. To validate its approach in practice, COB carbon is developing a pilot facility in Bad Bentheim, Germany.
COB carbon operates within the COB group, a corporate group specializing in the production and further processing of organic raw materials. With the launch of COB carbon, the COB group takes a further step toward building a sustainable circular economy.
