Circular economy at the heart of the UK Pavilion

Circular economy at the heart of the UK Pavilion

The circular economy is at the heart of the UK Pavilion for Expo 2025 Osaka.

The UK Pavilion at Expo 2025 is constructed using the innovative Global Modular System (GMS) and lightweight foundation system, which prioritises adaptability and sustainability. Designed with future use in mind, the pavilion structure will be repurposed after the event, reducing waste and supporting a circular economy. We are actively exploring opportunities for these materials to be reused at upcoming events across Japan or worldwide, ensuring they continue to serve a purpose while minimising their environmental footprint. This approach highlights the pavilion’s commitment to sustainable practices and long-term environmental responsibility.

A big thank you to our collaborators for their expertise and dedication to the project
