Panattoni will deliver 21,000 sqm to Trivium Packaging, a global manufacturer of metal packaging, as early as 2023. It will be the biggest completed development for a single customer in the developer’s Krakow portfolio. Panattoni Park Kraków North will also become the tenant’s reference production facility in this part of the world.
Increasingly active in the Krakow region. Panattoni is set to exceed a quarter of a million sqm in the Malopolska capital region in the coming months. One of the developer’s key investments is Panattoni Park Kraków North, which will eventually reach 55,000 sqm. The entire development will be completed in mid-2023. The first building of 30,000 sqm is to be ready at the beginning of the year. Trivium Packaging – a global manufacturer of metal packaging with more than 60 production facilities on five continents – will occupy 21,000 sqm there. The company is relocating its already functioning chemical packaging production to the Małopolska facility. The facility will also carry out varnishing and packaging processes. From Panattoni Park Kraków North, the company will serve the Polish market and numerous European markets.
The Krakow plant will be the reference plant in Trivium Packaging’s European portfolio. The investment will be built to a high standard of sustainable construction and will receive Excellent environmental certification, ensuring a significant reduction in energy use, water use and CO2 emissions. By delivering a modern and environmentally friendly facility, Panattoni is perfectly in line with the tenant’s policy: “Circularity Champion”. One of its pillars is cooperation with entities concerned about circularity and resource conservation. It is one of the key aspects of the “Go Earthwise with Panattoni” sustainability concept.
“The realization for Trivium Packaging is exceptional for both us and the client. We strengthen our position in the Krakow market and confirm the huge potential of the region for international operations. The client, thanks to the vast experience of our team, will receive a facility that is unique, meets stringent requirements, and is technologically advanced to optimize operations and increase volumes. This is Panattoni’s first lease in the region exceeding 20,000 sqm, but we can announce that the record will be broken soon,” says Michal Samborski, Head of Development at Panattoni.
The attractive location of Panattoni Park Kraków North is one of the key arguments that determined Trivium Packaging’s choice of this location. The complex is being built near the E77 European route. In addition, there are two international airports within a radius of less than 100 km – Kraków-Balice and Katowice International Airport in Pyrzowice. The proximity of the S7 expressway – which will eventually run from Gdansk almost to the southern border – and national road No. 44, which connects Krakow with Silesia, among other countries, is crucial for Polish operations.
Panattoni Park Kraków North will occupy about 55,000 sqm, with nearly 50,000 sqm already leased. In mid-2023, the developer will deliver the second and final building of the complex. A single tenant will fully occupy it. Demand for space within the park is fueled by its prime location as well as its flexibility to suit the client’s industry. The space can be prepared for the potential activities of representatives of dozens of industries, including logistics, automotive, or FMCG. Due to the proper design, the facilities can be adapted for warehousing, manufacturing or food logistics processes.
