Our Vision
We are enabling the heavy industry's immediate conversion to fossil free by replacing fossil inputs with bio-based products.
Our Mission
We will build, own and operate facilities, under our own or via joint-ownership, for the large-scale production and processing of high-quality, fossil free coal and gas products for the metallurgical industry in Europe.
With the help of our products, customers will be given the opportunity to significantly reduce their CO2 emissions.
Sweden’s leading large scale producer of HQ BioCarbon
The problem with global warming is not the emission of CO2 into the atmosphere, per se. If the source of the CO2 is biological it will be reabsorbed and balance the ecosystem. If products based on fossil carbon can be replaced by biomass-based alternatives, anthropogenic climate change can be mitigated.
Since 2013, we have taken the initiative and become Sweden’s leading large scale producer of HQ BioCarbon, enabling the steel industry to replace its use of fossil coal. We are doing that by building, owning and operating advanced pyrolysis plants to convert forest residues into HQ BioCarbon and energy. HQ BioCarbon that can be used in metallurgic applications, as raw material for modern batteries or to clean water and air, or as a carbon sink and soil improvement.

Our partners
In order to be able to deliver HQ BioCarbon adapted to various applications and to meet set specifications from the steel industry, it is commonly mixed with other substances or components, and for different types of products, such as briquettes. This is to meet the high demands of, for example, mechanical strength, reactivity and temperature tolerance. Envigas works closely with both research institutes and commercial partners specializing in various niches in the steel industry. This is to be able to deliver an optimal product to the customer.
