23rd October 2023
As demand for high-quality sustainable warehouse space strengthens, Logicor, one of Europe’s leading owner, manager and developer of logistics real estate, has leased an additional c. 26,500 sq ft to existing customer Redhill Manufacturing, at Logicor’s Lakeside Industrial Estate, Redditch, Worcestershire, UK.
A customer in Unit 3 since 2021, Redhill Manufacturing were looking for new facilities to support the business’ expansion and growth. With a prime location just 15 miles south of Birmingham, the business signed for an additional three units, taking their total space occupied to 52,000 sq ft.
Over the next three months, the new units will be upgraded, from EPC rating ‘E’ to ‘B’, with increased energy efficiency from LED lighting and PVC windows, as well as new heating and cooling systems. The site will also benefit from a mezzanine, bike racks to encourage sustainable travel for Redhill’s locally based workforce, and fast-action roller shutter doors for easy access.
