As a cornerstone of responsibly sustainable environmental stewardship, Manildra Group
recognises air quality is essential for healthy ecosystems and community wellbeing.
In 2024, we significantly increased Shoalhaven Starches’ air treatment capacity with the
installation of an advanced biofilter system – effectively doubling odour control capabilities
at the advanced manufacturing hub on the south coast of New South Wales.
Designed to improve local air quality, the state-of-the-art biofilter treats exhaust air through
odour-consuming microorganisms. In neutralising the odorous compounds, the
microorganisms dramatically reduce emissions from the air before release.
