The story behind the bouquet design Our partner suppliers in this project Our partner colleges in this project |
Creativity & Sustainability No Cold Store: In keeping with the stated intent that the London 2012 games will be the most sustainable games ever, there are no cold storage facilities at any of the Olympic venues for the Victory bouquets. Neither are there chilled compartments on the vehicles that will transport the bouquets to each venue, the energy cost / benefit equation not being conducive for a sustainable London 2012. Solution we grow flowers in the UK, and select varieties that are proven to be resilient to variations in temperature. We deliver them from the field to the athlete within three days so natural longevity will assist us....Oh, we also pray that we don't have a heat wave! < Back |
