Bamboo Credits from Bamboologic are the first carbon removal certificates issued under the Dutch certification body ONCRA to be independently verified. With this, Bamboologic continues to pioneer in carbon farming. Bamboo Credits are high-quality carbon removal certificates that deliver triple impact: on the climate, on sustainable and nature-inclusive agriculture, and on the green economy.
External verification: an extra layer of trust and transparency
Companies, organizations, and individuals actively contributing to climate solutions by purchasing carbon removal credits or Bamboo Credits from European bamboo farmers can now rely on an added layer of trust. Bamboologic, a leader in sustainable bamboo cultivation and processing in Europe, has received a positive verification within the ISO 14063-3 framework by the reputable Bureau Veritas. A sample of bamboo farms in the Netherlands, France, and Portugal was assessed. The implementation of the Land Stored Carbon Protocol, developed by the Dutch certification body ONCRA, was reviewed. The Bureau Veritas team also visited Bamboologic’s bamboo farm in Alcoutim, Portugal, to verify the real-world impact.
Project information and marketplace
www.bamboocarbonremoval.eu provides an overview of participating European bamboo farms. Bamboo Credits can be purchased directly through the platform or negotiated with
. Transparency and reliability are central: project data is openly available, and all transactions can be viewed in the public ledger.
For buyers, Bamboo Credits represent local, nature-based carbon removal projects where actual carbon sequestration and storage is already taking place. No greenwashing – just real, local climate action.
“This independent verification is an important milestone for Bamboologic and for the recognition of bamboo as a valuable crop for climate and the economy”, says João Ludovico, Carbon Engineer at Bamboologic. “Sustainably managed bamboo farms not only deliver a renewable alternative to fossil-based materials such as hardwood, steel, and PVC, but also set a new standard for trustworthy carbon removal, soil restoration, and biodiversity. It’s a regenerative agricultural model that brings both ecological and economic value.”
