The greenest industrial building, the highest quality marketing & PR campaign and the most loyal tenants – these are the categories dominated this year by Panattoni. The builder of industrial buildings successfully continued last year’s double, first place in the CIJ Awards, a prestigious competition for the best commercial real estate in the Czech Republic. The award-winning projects for this year were Real Digital Panattoni Park Cheb South, Kion Group Panattoni Stříbro and Panattoni Pilsen Digital Park.
Especially valuable is the victory in the Best Leading Green Building Development category, which includes projects across development segments. The Real Digital distribution center, built on a brownfield after the former Škoda Ostrov, thus defeated both office and residential buildings.
“In the competition of several dozen excellent projects, I consider the first three places to be a great success. All the more so because we defended one of the firsts in the green development category with the Real Digital project in Panattoni Park Cheb South. The sustainable concept of ecological construction has long been a key part of our corporate strategy. I believe that clients are also satisfied with the quality of our buildings, which is confirmed by the victory in the category of the most loyal tenants. And the fact that the quality and creativity of the external presentation of our projects was also awarded is a pleasant point for last year, “said Pavel Sovička, General Manager for Panattoni CR and Slovakia.
“The Czech Republic has the most ecological hall for modern industry in the world in Cheb, which rightly collects other awards. It is the culmination of the path of green building construction that we have with Pavel Sovička were set in 2015. Thanks to that, we have one thing today one of the greenest portfolios in the world, in which a high share of regeneration of old brownfields with a long industrial tradition also plays a crucial role. I am glad that the Czech Republic is at the forefront again and that modern halls have received such a prestigious award. A stamp of the most gentle approach to the world around us. Yes, those halls that are often wrongly referred to as unscrupulous boxes. I would like to thank the entire team that participated in the construction and preparation, “added Milan Kratina, CEO of Accolade.
The Real Digital distribution center in Panattoni Park Cheb South has been certified as the most environmentally friendly industrial building in the world according to the latest BREEAM 2016 New Construction standards. The project even received the first Outstanding mark in the Czech Republic and a record score of 90.68%.
For the Kion Group, Panattoni built another production building in Stříbro, which complemented the complex of two existing “smart” factories. The third production hall for the same tenant within one industrial park secured Panattoni victory in the category of the most loyal tenant. The entire complex has now even become the largest production center for handling technology and automation in the world. The new 25,550 sqm building, which serves the Dematic subsidiary, meets the highest standards of sustainable construction and was built
in order to obtain BREEAM New Construction Excellent certification. According to the above standard, for example, the building excels in above-standard insulation of the facade (150 mm) and roof (280 mm), which allows minimizing energy costs.
On the other hand, in the PR project of the Panattoni Pilsen Digital Park industrial park, the jury praised the ingenious concept of augmented reality, through which the company interactively introduced the new industrial zone to the Pilsen public. With the help of a QR code, those interested can download a special application to their mobile phone or tablet free of charge and view a real-size visualization of a 3D model of the planned hall on the spot.
The application was created by the start-up AKULAR, a premium provider of innovative visualization services
in augmented reality. The platform operates on the east coast of the United States. She visualized the world’s largest projects from the world’s leading developers – Crystal City for Amazon alongside the US Pentagon, key projects for Boston Properties and the entire East Coast Hudson River for Long Island City. The platform has received several prestigious awards from BuiltWorlds.
