Husk Sustainabilty 

This work is a progression of the outcomes from the government match funding Design Challenges for a Circular Economy as led by Jon Baker in partnership with the Alliance of Sustainable Building. It is also a continuation of research into sustainability within re-useable construction and the built environment.

​

Foundationless and reusable construction is still one of the most effective techniques to employ to reduce carbon emissions. This aligns with the principles of the circular economy, “Keeping resources in use for as long as practical then, re-purposing and regenerating at the end of their life”.

​

To achieve our goal of a net zero building system, Where possible, FLBs will use renewable and recycled materials and strive for a 90% material re-use during the life cycle of the modules and components, with the remaining 10% re-purposed or recycled.

​

HUSK actively utilises and promotes sustainable building products, materials and construction techniques partnering likeminded companies and organisations who share our ethos at all stages of the FLBs’ development and usage.
