Carbon Capture Partnership
Our climate initiatives support projects beyond our value chain, fostering sustainability in the communities and environments we impact.
Taking strategic climate action
Working with our partner Atmoz, we’ve invested in the Brandon Project operated by O.C.O Technology, which uses an accelerated carbonation process to stop harmful carbon emissions being released into the atmosphere.
We’re proud to partner with a technology provider that plays a key role in global efforts to mitigate climate change, by reducing carbon emissions and promoting environmental sustainability. This project exemplifies how we are taking action to improve sustainability, in line with the Sharp 2050 Eco Vision goal of ‘taking action today for a more sustainable tomorrow’.
Carbon capture in action
O.C.O Technology is a world leader in the application of Accelerated Carbonation Technology (ACT) for carbon capture. This process removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and permanently mineralises the greenhouse gas as a carbonate rock known as Manufactured Limestone (M-LS). This helps with waste reduction by diverting waste from landfill and saves precious resources by replacing virgin aggregate.
Operating four sites in the UK, with a combined production of M-LS of over 500,000 tonnes per year, O.C.O Technology has been audited and fully on-boarded onto the Puro.earth carbon trading platform, where it generates high-quality fully verified carbon credits.
Additionally, O.C.O Technology aligns with several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, further cementing our commitment to the Sharp Eco Vision.
Our investment with Atmoz contributes to our long-term vision to support scalable, science- and tech-driven solutions that combat emissions. Through this, we address our own footprint, while reinforcing our responsibility to future-proof industries and safeguard natural resources.
