Australia Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka

Australia Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka

ES GLOBAL was appointed as the principal contractor and design, build and dismantling of the Australia Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka. The Australian Government required a pavilion to showcase the best of their nation at Expo 2025 Osaka. The Australia Pavilion at Expo 2025 sets a new benchmark for sustainability, repurposing key build assets from events such as the London 2012 Shooting and Water Polo venues, the Birmingham Commonwealth Games, and the Tokyo 2020 Shooting venue to minimise waste. By hiring mechanical services, kitchen fittings, and landscape elements, as well as commissioning prefabricated structures, the pavilion reduces reliance on single-use machinery and champions a circular economy. Guided by sustainable design principles, it optimises energy efficiency through climate-tailored systems, high-performance equipment, and the use of local materials to lower embodied energy.
