LESS CARBON.
MORE ARBON.
For service companies, climate action often hits a wall.
What comes next when you’ve already done “everything right”?
The Answer is Arbon.
Instead of traditional carbon compensation, Arbon delivers real, verified negative emissions - using fast-growing algae and bamboo powered by nature. Read more.
Our solution is built on a 3-billion-year-old invention: photosynthesis. We offer companies a low-emission, ocean-based Carbon Capture and Storage subscription.
How big is the impact?
This carbon sequestration is a natural method and can be massively scaled up. The world's oceans have already handled biomass falls to the seabed for millions of years.
How big impact we make simply depends on how many companies are willing to contribute. With our verification system, and third party verifiers, high demanding customers can be confident.

How the OceanPod works
-
Removing carbon from the atmosphere
Photosynthesis is the most effective carbon capture process on Earth. That’s why Arbon Earth uses a nature-based solution.
OceanPods are built from bamboo and macroalgae - two of the fastest-growing natural materials available. As the algae grow, they absorb CO₂ from the atmosphere. Once fully grown, the biomass sinks to the deep seabed, where the captured carbon stays in the ocean cycle for up to 1,500 years.
-
Binding carbon dioxide
Removing CO₂ is only part of the solution - where it is stored matters.
To achieve high permanence, carbon must be bound in stable environments. The deep ocean seabed offers one of the most secure long-term storage locations on the planet. This approach is grounded in advances in marine biology, carbon dioxide removal (CDR), monitoring technologies, and decades of research into natural biomass cycles.
-
Built for scale - Through Collaboration
We establish sites around the world in partnership with coastal and island communities.
Our in-house monitoring and verification, combined with third-party verification through ONCRA, provides the transparency and trust required by high-integrity buyers of carbon removal.
Together, we can create climate impact that lasts for generations.

“We believe in the innovative – yet simple – idea of Arbon Earth to remove carbon from the atmosphere and binding it to the seabed.”

CDR: Carbon Dioxide Removal. Also called Carbon Capture. In Swedish: ”koldioxid-infångning”.
CO2: Carbon Dioxide
Net Zero: The term is used to signify that a person or organization removes more C02 than its activities emits. In Swedish: ”Nettonoll”. To be able to claim to be Net Zero, only climate compensation projects may be used where the purchase of carbon dioxide credits means that greenhouse gases are removed from the atmosphere and stored for at least 100 years.
Carbon Neutral: This term is similar to Net Zero, but is weaker in the sense that is also allows one to credit projects that only prevents greenhouse gas emissions.
Carbon Negative: When carbon removals exceed emissions for a person or organization.
Additionality: Refers to how much of the carbon removal of a particular climate project that would have occurred anyway, had the project not taken place.
Permanence: Refers to how long carbon, that has been removed from the atmosphere by some climate project, will remain removed from the atmosphere.

Awesome that you are starting! Try to automate as much as possible of your data collection so as much of the sustainability budget as possible can go to CDR.
You will report the emissions and the captures separately.

The activities of a generic person in the western world generates emissions around 8 tonnes yearly.
It is common for companies to only compensate for emissions related to their employees work activities.
WWF footprint calculator, Golow and Climate Hero have tools to see status of consumers and companies. And Wellfish and Goclimate have tools to automatically get your emissions based on your book keeping.
The average emissions for companies without production was 0,2 tons per employee per month according to a study by Removement in Stockholm, Sweden.

”Blue carbon” is the carbon dioxide that is captured by the world's oceans and coastal ecosystems, and thus does not stay in the atmosphere and contributes to the greenhouse effect.
This carbon is stored in the bottom sediment, of in the water column as DIC (dissolved inorganic carbon).
It is the aim of Arbon Earth to increase the amount of carbon stored in these habitats.
-
The Permanence is very high, 100 to millions of years. The biomasse and it’s carbon sink to a depth of 1000+ meters. Some of the biomass becomes buried in the sediment. Some is dissolved as DIC (Dissolved Inorganic Carbon) in the water column, but since the water circulation time in the big oceans is 700-2000 year long, even the CO2 which is dissolved in the water takes very long time to reach the surface. At these depths CO2 is in liquid form which are heavier than water.
-
The additionality is very high. We actively increase the number of places where fast growing macroalgae can grow. This storage of carbon wouldn’t have happened otherwise.
-
We provide new income possibilities for coastal communities.
We source material as locally as we can.
-
Our Oceanpods provide nursing chambers for a variety of fish species, increasing the Biodiversity. Also on the seafloor our biomasse increase the biodiversity.
Our method mimics a natural process that has been around for millions of years.
-
Tree planting has fallen out of favor as a CDR method in recent years due to the complexity of such operations. To this end, we have chosen not to be involved in tree planting activities.
-
While it is good to take a holistic perspective, when EU lobby push that companies need to report on 1100 data points, it creates massive administration.
So we hear many sustainability managers saying most of their climate budgets are consumed by administration and climate consultants, so they have little remaining resources for emission reductions or CDR.
But of course the consulting business are riding nice on the wave of incoming business.
Best for the climate would be to focus on two values:
Company emissions including scope 3, and
CDR purchased (tons of CO2)
Then there would be a great effective push forward for many companies.
But we all hope that administration can be automated, so companies have resources left to get some real climate improvements going.
-
We work with fast growing species that uses photosynthesis to bind a lot of carbon dioxide, fast. Such as macroalgae and bamboo.
We always work with local species. -
Dried bamboo consist of around 50% carbon.
Dried macroalgae consist of around 28% carbon.
-
Yes. We release Oceanpods far away from shipping routes, normal fishing areas and islands.
We have designed our methods to not have any negative effect on sea vessels.
