Free Running Buildings was formed in 2014 as a University of Leeds spin-out company in partnership with the IP Group PLC. Using patented technology developed by the founders Dr Hughes and Dr Calautit the company transfers the UK’s leading expertise in the field of building physics into the marketplace.
From the outset the mantra has been that traditional techniques which are simple and easy to understand should be updated by integrating new innovative technologies. By doing this we can bring them into line with the demands of the modern built environment. Creating a building which is warm, cool or well ventilated is easy but creating one which does this naturally takes skill and expertise and that’s why Free Running Buildings was created.
