About Us

Why Construction Carbon?

Managing embodied carbon can be complex and expensive. We provide an accurate and consistent view across your portfolio.

Construction Carbon connects the fragmented embodied carbon ecosystem to ensure the sustainability and environmental responsibility of construction projects. 

We provide a centralised embodied carbon management platform for real estate developers and other professionals, clarifying the web of assessment tools, methodologies and guidance. This allows consistent project benchmarking, informed decision making, and reliable carbon reporting. 

We also deliver a leading independent lifecycle carbon assessment training course, in collaboration with the Supply Chain Sustainability School and CIBSE.
