- Abstract
This paper presents a short history of the Colonial Sugar Refinery (CSR) company in Australia and celebrates the heritage value of the Yarraville refinery and structures from the three centuries in which it has operated, to today where it still remains as a competitive manufacturing facility. The paper further discusses Sugar Australia's approach to, and challenges from, continuous improvement at the 140 year old refinery to build a sustainable business for the future while respecting heritage values from the past.
