Why Piroliswiss

More than charcoal: an integrated industrial model.

  1. Industrial carbonisation technology

    Metal retorts designed to control the process, recover condensables and use the gases produced as an energy source.

  2. Real-time thermal control

    Every kiln is supervised by four probes integrated with Piroliswiss Control, so the progress of each cycle can be followed precisely.

  3. End-to-end traceability

    Every lot is tracked continuously from the selection and preparation of the raw material through processing, storage and export, keeping a clear record of the whole process.

  4. High-density raw material

    Curupaú and Quebracho Colorado, selected for their quality, hardness, high density and excellent energy performance.

Who we are

Industrial producers and exporters of premium charcoal and pyrolysis by-products.

Piroliswiss is a company specialised in producing and exporting charcoal and high-value by-products, developed with industrial technology and efficient processes to reach high standards of quality and performance. We operate under a responsible and sustainable model, using forest biomass of legal origin and turning it entirely into high-value products.

Industrial production

We combine carbonisation technology in industrial metal retorts with controlled processes, joining precision, efficiency and operational control to deliver products of uniform quality, high yield and consistent specifications for demanding markets.

Responsible sourcing

We work exclusively with forest biomass of legal origin and authorised provenance, recovering resources that would otherwise be burned or wasted. Through efficient industrial processes we turn them into high-value products, reducing waste, pollution and the loss of raw material with high productive potential.

Based in

Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia. Developed with Grupo Zwald S.R.L., which provides operating know-how, technology and commercial channels.

The problems

Our solution

An untapped resource facing ever-growing demand.

From an untapped resource to high-value solutions.

The problems

From forest residue to productive opportunity

Millions of tonnes of forest residue are burned, abandoned or underused, causing pollution and economic loss.

Our solution

We turn untapped biomass into industrial value.

Through controlled pyrolysis, we transform forest biomass into premium charcoal, pyroligneous acid and briquettes, creating new applications and value from a single resource.

The problems

Growing industrial demand

The steel industry faces growing challenges in sourcing charcoal, with demand that requires greater volume, continuity and stability of supply.

Our solution

Reliable supply for industry.

We are building a solid, scalable source of supply to meet the operational needs of the steel industry.

The problems

The rising cost of farm inputs

High fertiliser and agrochemical prices cut farm margins and raise the need for local, sustainable alternatives.

Our solution

Bio-inputs for more efficient agriculture

A natural solution that reduces dependence on agrochemicals, protects soil health and supports more balanced, sustainable crops.

Products

One process, three products.

One raw material, three products and a fully integrated value chain.
