Garbe Industrial has celebrated the topping-out ceremony for its logistics development in Salzgitter, Lower Saxony. The project involves the redevelopment of a 51,000-square-metre industrial brownfield site and is progressing toward completion, with the building scheduled to be ready for occupancy in the fourth quarter of 2025. The total investment is approximately €40 million. Adrian Zellner, Member of the Executive Board at Garbe Industrial, described the ceremony as an important milestone in the project. He acknowledged the efforts of all parties involved in the redevelopment of the former industrial site. The property was previously owned by rail vehicle manufacturer Alstom. Prior to new construction, significant remediation work was required to clear hazardous materials, demolish old foundations, remove concrete slabs, and properly dispose of excavated soil. Garbe Industrial leveraged its experience with former industrial sites to prepare the area for redevelopment. The project will deliver a logistics facility of around 31,000 square metres, divided into three units. The development includes approximately 27,700 square metres of hall space, 2,000 square metres of mezzanine space, and 1,400 square metres allocated for office and social areas. The facility will feature 29 dock levellers and twelve ground-level sectional doors, nine of which will have covered side access, making it suitable for tenants in sectors such as the automotive industry. A sealing membrane will be installed beneath the floor slab of the hall units to allow storage of materials classified as hazardous to water. Plans for the site include six truck parking spaces and 112 car parking spaces, with some pre-fitted for electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The site’s location south of the Hanover–Wolfsburg–Braunschweig region provides access to key transport routes, including proximity to the A39 motorway, which links Salzgitter to Wolfsburg, the A2 motorway between Dortmund and Berlin, and the A7 motorway connecting Hamburg and Ulm. Zellner indicated that leasing activity is expected to progress during the construction phase. The project is being developed in line with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards. The building will use district heating, and Garbe Industrial plans to pursue Gold certification from the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB) upon completion.
