The brief

The Dairy Nexus will provide a net zero carbon flagship facility that re-positions the Borderlands at the forefront of industry-focused, rural co-innovation and knowledge exchange.

It will drive transformational research and innovation to decarbonise the dairy sector and move it towards a circular bioeconomy.

In doing so, Dairy Nexus will deliver significant and inclusive regional growth to underpin the rural communities that are so important to the Borderlands economy and its regional identity.

Aligned with the aims of the research hosted by the Dairy Nexus, the construction project is embracing ambitious sustainability targets and is focused on reducing carbon in both the build and operation of the facility, utilising the raw materials available on a live farm site to subsidise the buildings energy strategy.

The project is located adjacent to a live farm at SRUC’s Barony Campus in Dumfries.
