Green Carbon is NDD's own greentech initiative — a working reforestation program in Brazil that plants trees with high CO₂ sequestration capacity and helps partner companies offset their carbon footprint. Workspace Dynamics represents it alongside NDD Orbix, so every customer we work with can see exactly what stands behind the "sustainable by design" story.

Green Carbon was founded in 2006 in the Serra Catarinense, inside NDD, on a simple premise: taking care of the planet is a responsibility companies can act on, not just talk about. It plants trees with high carbon-sequestration capacity, runs climate-awareness education through the Green Carbon University, and helps businesses connect their operations to real ESG outcomes rather than a logo on a slide.
Native and fast-growing species planted and maintained across ten forest units in Santa Catarina, each independently audited for growth and CO₂ capture.
Short-form training on climate change and sustainable practice, so a company's environmental commitment reaches employees, not just its annual report.
Companies can offset a chosen tonnage of CO₂ and receive a branded Green Carbon certificate, backed by technical reports and field visits — not a self-issued badge.
Owned or leased land, managed to the good-practice standards set by Brazilian and international forestry bodies, and checked by independent forestry engineers rather than taken on faith. Nine plantation units plus one native forest reserve.

Green Carbon backs its numbers with third-party certification and a verification tool, so a partner or end customer can confirm what they're being told rather than take a marketing claim at face value.
Certificate AO00521 — the Forest Stewardship Council seal, recognized in over 75 countries.
Independent technical reporting on carbon capture volume per forest management unit.
A branded, company-specific offset certificate carrying its own validation key, checkable at any time.
A digital mark a company can display on its own website once its offset is verified.
On-site visits are available across all forest management units — this isn't a program you only see in a PDF.
Any certificate issued carries a code that can be checked directly on Green Carbon's own site.
A majority of buyers now lean toward companies that can show real environmental action, not just a claim.
A credible sustainability story is increasingly a factor in attracting and keeping talent.
A verifiable offset program gives ESG reporting something concrete to point to, beyond a policy statement.
