Panattoni has commenced the speculative development of a 645,000 sq ft net zero carbon logistics park in Sittingbourne, Kent.
Panattoni Park Sittingbourne, which is strategically positioned between London and Dover, four miles north of junction five of the M2, comprises two units of 440,000 sq ft and 205,000 sq ft. The developer is targeting BREEAM Excellent and an EPC rating of A for the units which will feature enhanced sustainability measures within the base specification, including the installation of roof-mounted photovoltaic panelling and electric vehicle charging points.
Alex Mitchell, development manager at Panattoni, said: “Panattoni Park Sittingbourne provides occupiers with high-quality, modern logistics space with significantly enhanced sustainability credentials. We are pleased to be under construction having purchased the site in September 2023 and look forward to delivering the units in the first quarter of 2025.
“The development of the site highlights our continued strategy to speculatively develop within under supply markets, capturing the sustained level of occupier demand for logistics assets with seamless connectivity to local, national and international distribution routes.”
Avison Young, Savills and CBRE are joint agents at Panattoni Park Sittingbourne.
