Our Story
C Free was sparked by a pivotal conversation between childhood friends, (now) Dr. Adam deep into a PhD, and Eddie, freshly stepping away from a career in consultancy. The idea for carbon footprint calculations emerged from a blend of academic insight and entrepreneurial spirit, with the ambition to give all companies the tools they need to decarbonise.
Founded in 2019, C Free's journey began amidst global changes. The onset of COVID-19, while presenting challenges, serendipitously provided the perfect opportunity for full-time dedication to working on the project.
Since our inception we have doubled in size and are growing rapidly. We have calculated the carbon footprint of hundreds of companies. We have played a pivotal role in the decarbonisation of NHS supply chains and have applied our methods to some of the worlds biggest pharmaceutical providers in dozens of territories including Europe, the US, and Australasia. We have also been featured on the BBC and have been invited to myriad conferences to speak on the importance of carbon accounting.
