CTP secures eighth BREEAM Excellent rating of 2024 for sustainable business park portfolio in Poland
CTP has been awarded the BREEAM International New Construction V6 certificate at the Excellent level with an overall score of 74.6% for warehouses GPOR1 and GPOR2 at its logistics and industrial business park CTPark Gdańsk Port. This means that, CTP has received the BREEAM Excellent accreditation for eight facilities in its Polish portfolio in 2024 alone.
The GPOR1 and GPOR2 buildings received the highest scores in the certification process in the categories of management (89/100), materials (89/100), waste management (86/100), energy (84/100) or water resources (78/100).
"This year alone, we have carried out BREEAM certification for six of our facilities. This is now being joined by two more that are part of the CTPark Gdańsk Port complex. It is in a strategic location from the point of view of carrying out cross-border logistics processes. This allows tenants to increase the scale of their operations, reach more markets and, at the same time, meet their ESG strategies, which are currently one of the main competitive advantages for companies in virtually every sector of the economy. Sustainable real estate provides, among other things, the possibility to optimise operating costs or reduce the carbon footprint, which in the context of the CSRD is a very important asset,’ says Adam Targowski, Group Head of ESG, CTP.
The CTPark Gdańsk Port complex was built on a 21.3-hectare site, located in the direct vicinity of the DCT terminal - the largest container terminal on the Baltic Sea, the Gdańsk North Railway Port, as well as national road 89, the Tri-City northern bypass and the A1 motorway. As part of this investment, CTP Polska has so far built two halls with a total area of 117,000 sqm. The facilities are largely commercialised. Among others, BayWa r.e., Morska Agencja Gdynia and NEFAB Packaging Poland are carrying out their operations in them.
At the end of August this year, CTP announced the purchase of a 140,000 sqm plot located within the Pomeranian Investment Centre (PCI), on which the next phase of the CTPark Gdańsk Port complex will be built. There, the developer will offer classic big box space (CTSpace), as well as smaller rental units starting from 400 sqm, known as CTPBox and CTFlex.
In addition to CTPark Gdańsk Port, since the beginning of this year CTP Poland has obtained BREEAM certification for a total of six buildings across CTPark Warsaw South, CTPark Opole, CTPark Sulechów and CTPark Iłowa.
