Our Carbon Report
MEASURING, REDUCING AND REMOVING MORE THAN WE EMIT
Paradisefold is the first carbon positive silk care and nightwear brand. This page sets out how we measure our emissions, how we remove them, and what we've achieved year on year.
We measure and reduce our emissions across our full supply chain, from raw silk through to last-mile delivery. We then work with Climacrux Carbon Removed to invest in removing at least twice as much carbon as we produce, across a range of capture technologies.

HOW WE REMOVE CARBON
We invest in several carbon removal technologies. Each works on a different timescale and captures carbon in a different way, so together, they form a more resilient approach than relying on any single method.
Forestation — Planting native trees that absorb CO₂ as they grow. We work only with partners planting native species (no monocultures) and avoid any deforestation-linked projects. Carbon is sequestered for decades, with double-planting and a five-year safety buffer built in.
Ocean kelp forests — Growing kelp that captures carbon through photosynthesis, then permanently sequestering it at the ocean floor.
Biochar — Heating waste plant matter without oxygen to create a stable form of carbon that enriches soil and sequesters CO₂ for millennia.
Olivine distribution — A naturally occurring mineral that reacts with atmospheric CO₂ and water to form stable silicates, locking carbon away for millennia.
Seawater electrolysis — Removing CO₂ from the ocean (which naturally absorbs it from the atmosphere) and using it to produce green hydrogen, contributing to both carbon removal and clean energy.

YEAR ON YEAR
2024–2025 Emissions: 131,352 kg CO₂e Removed (to date): 179,253 kg CO₂ Primary investments: forestation (99%), olivine (1%), biochar, seawater electrolysis.
2023–2024 Emissions: 45,785 kg CO₂e Removed: 83,452 kg CO₂ Primary investments: forestation (98%), olivine (1.7%), seawater (0.15%), biochar (0.15%)
2022–2023 Emissions: 4,094 kg CO₂ Removed: 8,188 kg CO₂ Investments: forestation (96%), kelp sinking (0.7%), olivine (3%), direct air capture (0.2%), bio-oil (0.1%)
2021–2022 Emitted: 2,622 kg CO₂ Removed: 6,000 kg CO₂ Investments: forestation (95%), kelp sinking (5%)
Nb. We aim to remove 2x our emissions, we will be removing an additional 91,569 kg CO₂ to be removed in 2026 to meet that target.
