Panattoni Europe, industrial space market leader, symbolically commenced the construction of a large-scale logistics centre for BSH Sprzęt Gospodarstwa Domowego. The BTS (built-to-suit) facility with 79,000 m² and its own railway siding will be delivered in Łódź. The event was attended by the representatives of both companies, as well as local authorities: Hanna Zdanowska – Mayor of Łódź and Ewa Florczyk – Director of the Entrepreneurship Department, Marshal Office of Łódzkie Region. The facility is planned for completion and commissioning in the spring of 2018.
The large-scale BTS (built-to-suit) facility is set to total 79,000 m², which will be divided into the warehousing section of 77,000 m² and the office section which will take up 1,700 m². The investment will feature its own railway siding which will make it possible to rail freight the majority of production earmarked for exports. The railway station comprising a platform running the entire length of the facility (590 m) will be put inside the building. Moreover, the building will feature a special ramp system, LED lighting, as well as additional skylights and facade windows, to maximise access to natural light.
Robert Dobrzycki, Chief Executive Officer Europe, Panattoni Europe, comments: “At BSH, they place special emphasis on environmental protection and environment-friendly solutions. Thanks to our experience in developing modern and sustainable facilities, our team was able to propose to BSH the optimal and most advantageous solutions. The railway siding and equipment inside the facility will enable the company to facilitate its logistics processes, and the excellent location with well-developed infrastructure is great for export traffic. We are happy that this large-format project, of such high significance to the growth of BSH, has been awarded to Panattoni Europe”.
