The logistics center benefited from an investment of 26 million euros and is currently the industrial building with the highest BREEAM 92.89 score (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Methodology).
To build the warehouse, an extensive team of over 130 specialists was needed, comprising Oopy Architecture office together with Mr. architect Adrian Pop from the ADP architecture office and partners from Wincon.
The construction was designed from the beginning as a sustainable, energy-efficient building, with energy production from renewable sources, very low water consumption, special attention to the comfort, safety and health of the people using the building.
The impact on the environment was carefully monitored during the construction period and subsequently mitigated by planting and other measures that support biodiversity. Materials with a lower carbon footprint and environmental certificates (EPD – Environmental Product Declaration) were chosen, and the site had strict requirements to follow the same principles of reducing resource consumption, ensuring worker safety and health, respectively reduce impact on the environment as much as possible.
The construction work lasted nine months and was completed in October 2021. The warehouse is one of the best performing within the REWE Group. It has more than 1,200 photovoltaic panels with an installed power of 650kWp, electric car charging stations and a centralized heat and electricity consumption monitoring system integrated into the central system in Vienna. It serves around 50 stores, which means faster deliveries, fresher products and lower CO2 emissions.
The warehouse has an area of 23,000 sqm, a height of 13.7 m and an extended receiving and shipping area with a height of 6.5 m and a temperature-controlled space of 8,600 sqm.
