About Us

About Us

Carbonology® are the leading specialists in carbon standards.  We are passionate about what we do.

We’re not afraid to be different. We do not follow, which is why we’re leaders in our field and stand out from the crowd.

How do we do this? Our passion for continual improvement drives innovation which has led us to become unrivalled experts in carbon standards.

Where did it all begin? Founder, Mel Blackmore, established consultancy firm Blackmores in 2006 and pioneered ‘Best Practice’ in raising standards. 

As a result of growth in demand for sustainability standards, and in particular carbon standards, together with endorsement and investment from Innovate UK, Carbonology® Ltd was formed as a subsidiary company of Blackmores.
