Green Logistics combines economical and ecological aspects
Sustainability criteria should be the standard for all buildings, including logistics properties, as they can be developed to be climate-neutral, sustainable, efficient, and even energy-generating.
Although economic growth has slowed across Europe, the demand for logistics space is increasing: one reason is the continued growth in e-commerce. At the same time, however, the supply of modern, large-scale storage space at prime locations is limited. The result: low vacancy rates and rising rents. We are therefore concentrating our investments on long-term leased respectively leasable logistics properties in the growth markets of Spain, Portugal, and Italy. For investors, sustainability criteria are often decisive for real estate investments and offer economic advantages.
The Green Logistics strategy includes:
- planning of solar PV panels on the rooftops
- green building certification (e.g. BREEAM)
