Estudio Flume completes Babassu flour factory in Serra

São Paulo's Estudio Flume has refurbished and extended the Babassu flour factory in Serra, Brazil to create a better workspace for the quebradeiras who turn babassu coconuts into oil and flour.
The 18 quebradeiras that collect and break the coconuts by hand to obtain the oil and flour – which comes from the mesocarp, or middle layer, of the coconut – needed an improved workspace that would comply with sanitary regulations and have space for better-suited equipment.
