Pioneering Sustainability and Eco-Friendly Design
City Point Okęcie sets new standards in sustainable commercial real estate. The project boasts advanced environmental features designed to reduce operational costs and carbon footprint significantly. Key sustainability elements include:
- Heating and cooling primarily provided by efficient heat pumps.
- A 450 kWp rooftop photovoltaic system partly powering the facility, harnessing renewable energy.
- Rainwater harvesting and water-saving devices projected to cut potable water consumption by an impressive 65 percent.
- The façade utilizes innovative sandwich panels with a reduced carbon footprint, marking a first in Poland for such an application.
From its conceptual stage, the project integrated ESG advisory to ensure full alignment with BREEAM, LEED, and EU Taxonomy standards, offering businesses a truly green and responsible operational base.
Designed for Efficiency and Future-Proof Operations
The facility has been meticulously designed to meet bespoke operational needs, as demonstrated by its customization for Welcome Airport Services. This adaptability ensures that the premium warehouse and office spaces are not just aesthetically pleasing but also highly functional and efficient, supporting diverse business requirements and future growth.
