Biography

Tristan Olivier was once described by his school French teacher as “a Crusader looking for a cause” and, like the No.137 bus, having waited for what feels like an eternity, three come along at once. Two have just come along and the third, quite literally, has now come into view.

A self-professed polymath, he has started to commercialise his talent for evolving concepts to leverage opportunities that address major issues of our times. He is the originator and creative force behind KOCO2, the world’s first climate change brand.

Tristan is also building a reputation as the foremost UK specialist addressing the related issues of childhood lead poisoning prevention (from old, lead based paint) and construction industry compliance in refurbishment and re-decorating work. He is a founder member of LiPSA, the Lead in Paint Safety Association, working with them to launch the “Act on Lead” campaign.

As an innovator and inventor Tristan has lent his unique perspective and insights to projects ranging from wooden toys and payment systems, to materials re-use /re-cycling and hydroxy-boosted fuel systems.

As for that third bus? He’ll just have time to compose some more educational children’s verse before that arrives…
