Industrial Forests for the Net-Zero Economy

BELEAF S.A. is building a European Nature-Based Infrastructure platform combining industrial Paulownia plantations, verified CO₂ removals, sustainable timber and biomass into one scalable asset-light model.

What we do

An integrated Nature-Based Infrastructure platform

We act as an integrator across the whole value chain — from land, through CO₂ measurement and certification, to timber and biomass commercialization.

Farmers

Landowners provide land and plant the crop.

BELEAF platform

We manage, measure and monetize CO₂ and timber.

CO₂ buyers & timber industry

ESG companies and industry take credits and raw material.

A dual revenue model

Carbon credits — recurring revenue

~60 t CO₂ per hectare per year, long-term contracts, ESG-driven premium demand. Base case ~€3,000 revenue per hectare per year from CO₂ alone.

Timber & biomass — cash events

Multiple harvest cycles from one root system (no replanting), strong industrial demand — furniture, construction, biomass.

BELEAF dual revenue model — CO₂ credits and timber value streams.
Pillars

Three pillars of sustainable growth

Carbon

CO₂ sequestration and certified carbon credits — recurring, long-term contracts with ESG-driven demand.

Timber

Sustainable production of light, valuable Paulownia timber for furniture, construction and biomass.

Agritech

Drones, satellite, AI and MRV — technology and data driving efficiency and credible impact measurement.

Paulownia

An exceptional tree

Paulownia changes the economics of CO₂ capture and timber production.

Grows ~10× faster

Valuable timber in ~8 years instead of decades, unlike a traditional stand.

Absorbs ~10× more CO₂

Sequestration beyond a classic forest — up to ~60 t CO₂ per hectare per year.

Regrows from the root

Further harvest cycles from the same root system — no replanting.

Light, valuable wood

~300 kg/m³, widely sought after in the furniture and light industries.

Resilient and hardy

Tolerates poorer soils — can be planted where other species won't grow.

Supports biodiversity

Flowers yield premium honey; plantations relieve pressure on natural forests.

Timber & biomass

Sustainable timber and biomass for industrial offtake

BELEAF develops long-term raw material supply models for timber and woody biomass buyers, including furniture, construction, panels, packaging, energy transition and industrial biomass applications.

Carbon & ESG

European CO₂ you can see, measure and verify

Local, plantation-level European CO₂ projects with audit-ready documentation — built for credible ESG reporting.

  • Local European projects
  • Plantation-level data
  • Satellite and drone monitoring
  • ESG reporting support
  • Audit-ready documentation
  • Long-term sourcing potential
How it works

From land to CO₂ credit and timber

1

Land scouting

Selecting and verifying land for an industrial plantation.

2

Seedlings

Top-quality material from Paulownia clones (InVitro technology).

3

Grower

The landowner plants and handles early care.

4

Plantation

The crop grows under agronomic supervision and monitoring.

5

CO₂

Captured carbon dioxide becomes a certified credit.

6

Timber

Harvest of valuable raw material — multiple cycles.

Six-step BELEAF process cycle from land to CO₂ credit and timber.
Asset-light

Scaling without heavy capital

1

Farmer provides the land

No land acquisition cost — the owner contributes the land.

2

Farmer plants

The grower handles planting and early care of the crop.

3

BELEAF manages & monetizes

We run, grow and monetize the plantation — CO₂ credits and timber.

Low CAPEX, lower risk, higher scalability

BELEAF asset-light model — growers provide land, BELEAF manages and monetizes.
Market

Two high-growth markets

We operate at the intersection of the carbon-credit and timber markets, where market demand is expected to exceed available high-quality supply.

Carbon-credit market

Projected at USD 50–100B+ by 2030 — an expected shortage of high-quality, European credits.

Timber market

>USD 1T globally. Europe is projected to face a 25–40% timber supply deficit by 2050.

Regulatory pressure

ESG, CSRD, Fit for 55, Net-Zero and EU ETS (prices toward ~€110/t) drive demand.

Demand expected to exceed supply

ORLEN alone targets ~21M t of CO₂ reduction per year; Poland ~380M t by 2050 (McKinsey).

Technology & MRV

Carbon you can trust — measured, reported, verified

Drones, satellite, AI analysis and MRV verification deliver accurate measurement of biomass, growth and captured CO₂ — the basis for premium carbon-credit certification.
