Sirin Development has unveiled plans for the second stage of development in the Kaunas Free Economic Zone (FEZ): a complex of three warehouses involving investments of over €33m will be built at Gamybos Street 6 in the village of Ramuciai. The warehouse complex will sit on 8.6 hectares of land, with a total of 47,000m² of space envisaged. The three planned A++ energy efficiency class buildings are being designed to be of similar size, each having an area of approximately 15,000m².
The buildings will meet the requirements for international certification under the BREEAM sustainability standard, ensuring they have a reduced impact on the environment and people. In building the complex, attention will be given to factors such as efficient heating systems, components that consume little water, energy-saving lighting, the use of renewable energy sources, waste separation, and ensuring it is well-suited for human work and recreation.
The site will include 4 car parks with 46 spaces for electric vehicles. A setting that is ergonomic, convenient and green is planned for the people who will work here, including facilities and spaces for eating and relaxing and landscaping with trees, bushes and herbaceous plants.
According to Sirin Development CEO Laurynas Kuzavas, the planned Kaunas FEZ facilities have been designed to minimise any impact on the current surroundings. Entrances to the site and loading and unloading areas are to be located on the sides of the buildings. And to minimise noise, the ventilation system will face in the direction of the FEZ. “In developing properties, we always try to consider the public welfare, which is why we will build an acoustic wall on the site to help safeguard local residents’ quality of life,” he said.
