§ Private Profile · Zürich, Zurich, Switzerland
Decentralized platform for biochar production, enabling carbon removal and soil restoration to decarbonize agricultural supply chains.
Based in Zürich, Switzerland, Cotierra operates a decentralized platform for biochar production designed to facilitate carbon removal and improve agricultural soil health. The organization utilizes specialized reactors to convert agricultural biomass, specifically focusing on coffee farm waste, into biochar that can be reintegrated into agricultural land. By deploying this technology directly at the source of agricultural waste, the system enables corporate clients to decarbonize their supply chains and meet broader sustainability targets. Furthermore, the application of the resulting biochar serves to restore degraded soils, thereby supporting rural communities and enhancing the yields of smallholder farmers. Currently operating with a workforce of 18 employees, the enterprise provides its carbon reduction and soil restoration services primarily to participants within the global coffee production sector. Cotierra was established in 2023 by co-founders Thomas Käslin, Lorenz Buser, and Marcel Rohner.
