About Us
We are an innovation driven digital infrastructure organisation of industry leading experts in intelligent design, engineering, security, science, research, and sustainability. Headquartered in London (UK), with over 200MW of IT capacity live or under development, we develop and operate sustainable data centres for some of the world’s largest technology companies, across the UK, Europe, Middle East, and Asia.
We believe in data centres for good - creating employment opportunities, using our resources to support local communities, and investing in environmental restoration.
Irrespective of which area you work in there’s a common thread that binds everyone at Pure DC together. We’re passionate about always improving the way we are working, operating and developing.
Our goal is to use intelligent design of data centre infrastructure to improve the planet, society and the communities we operate in. Being sustainable makes a lot of sense, our customers want to develop sustainably, and we do too. We recognise and take responsibility for the environmental impact of our data centres and that’s why our in-house design, construction and sustainability teams are working together to reduce emissions associated with our activities and supply chain.
