Company History
Pure Life Carbon was founded in 2017, with a commitment aimed at addressing the challenges of Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) through the introduction of innovative technologies. By 2018, our focus had shifted specifically toward Advanced Carbons as a standalone growing substrate, a decision inspired by our research into carbon-based growing media, aquaponics, and vertical growing.

Fundamentals & Measuring Success
The approach to our science, management, and auditing allows for streamlined integration of our clean technologies into the agricultural industry. Building and maintaining trust with industry partners, governments, and our clients enables us to affect transformation in the environments and communities we serve. We measure our overall effectiveness and performance using three success metrics: People, Planet, and Profit
People
The people performance metric will consider the direct and indirect social and cultural impacts that Pure Life Carbon will have on the people and their communities.
Planet
The planet metric will view positive change and transformation affected on the environment, biodiversity, and the climate.
Profit
The economic performance of Pure Life Carbon will be measured against times, industry, and baselines. Better economics fuels bigger community and global impact.
