Bombay Sapphire's Laverstoke Mill is a Sustainable Marvel
Since 2011, Laverstoke Mill has been home to one of the most recognisable of gins, Bombay Sapphire.

Since the gin distillery took up residence, the most striking addition to this quiet Victorian site has been the two intertwining glasshouses, designed by Thomas Heatherwick’s studio. Behind these picturesque scenes though lies the heart of Laverstoke; the ecological and sustainability emphasis that is key to the site. A biomass boiler uses by-products from the distillation to provide heat and hot water; through this, coupled with a photovoltaic array and a hydro-electric turbine on the river, up to 85 per cent of the site’s power is self-generated to reduce its carbon footprint.

Protecting the Food System from Hazards, Threats, and Vulnerabilities
Food safety risk assessment has been historically associated with the identification of hazards in food using Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP), and food defense, now identified as Threat Analysis/Critical Control Points (TACCP) by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI.) An additional risk assessment, Vulnerability Analysis/Critical Control Points (VACCP), has been added to the mix to assess the risk of vulnerability to food fraud, following international incidents of intentional adulteration. For instance, in 2008, melamine was added to infant formula to artificially increase the protein content, resulting in infant deaths and serious illness, and leading to massive recalls. This article highlights the similarities and differences among the three assessments.
