As the world cycles through crises – pandemic, war, famine, and climate change – the need to address global food shortages and our impact on the environment has become ever more apparent. Aquafin acts as a buffer stock system, supplying wheat to reduce food shortages around the world. The buffer stock system dehydrates (stores) and rehydrates (supplies) wheat grain during cycles of shortage and surplus. Grain storage and dehydration in itself reduces air pollution by minimising transport necessity through the reduction of volume. This is not the only sustainable aspect of this project. Former plastic manufacturer Igus’s headquarter building has been chosen to be the ‘corpse’ which will be taken apart and given a new life at Flimwell by reusing components of the existing building. Not only does this allow cost saving in the long run, but it also helps tackle greenhouse gas emissions making the project sustainable and efficient.
