Webinar: Advancing green manufacturing through biochar-based pots

Biochar-based pots are reshaping how we think about planting containers and the role of forestry by-products in sustainable manufacturing. In this webinar, Anneke Santilli and India Saunders from RDA Atlantic walk through the development of carbon-negative, compostable pots made from forest waste. They share insights from lab and growth chamber testing, what the research is revealing about plant growth performance and how biochar compares to traditional plastic and peat options.

The session also highlights the potential for commercial scale-up through the Hungry Earth™ brand and what this innovation could mean for local green manufacturing. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of how forestry “waste” can become a high-value consumer product, and how small shifts in materials can support climate goals, reduce emissions and create new opportunities across forestry and agriculture.
