Indurent, a leading developer, owner and operator of industrial and logistics space across the UK, has secured detailed planning approval for a c.230,000 sq ft industrial and logistics development on the Viables Business Park.

The scheme, delivered under an innovative Development Agreement between Indurent and Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council, will revitalise a large industrial complex currently occupied by Sony Europe B.V.

As part of the agreement, Indurent will construct a new c.43,000 sq ft facility for Sony on a vacant car park within the existing complex. Once Sony relocates, the current building will be demolished and a speculative c.161,000 sq ft industrial unit will be developed. This modern, sustainable space will expand Indurent’s portfolio and provide state-of-the-art facilities for future occupiers. Under the terms of the Tripartite Agreement, Indurent will gift the new building to the Council upon completion, whilst the Council will grant Indurent a long term lease for the unit.

Each of the new units will be delivered according to the best in class ‘Indurent Code’ of sustainable construction, targeting at least EPC A+ and BREEAM ‘Excellent’ credentials as well as offering operational net zero office space. The project is expected to support over 200 jobs.

This marks Indurent’s second scheme under this collaborative development agreement structure with Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council, having delivered c.190,000 of warehousing across three units for LevertonHELM in 2022, part of an £18.1 million investment to regenerate the neighbouring former ITT headquarters complex.

Indurent Park Basingstoke is located on the Viables Business Park, within two miles of Basingstoke town centre and directly adjacent to the M3 motorway, providing direct road access to Southampton, London and the wider south east of England.

Indurent, a leading developer, owner and operator of industrial and logistics space across the UK, has competed the speculative development of the fifth and final phase at Indurent Park Burton, delivering over 392,000 sq ft across five warehouse units. Following the completion of this final phase, a total of c.1m sq ft of industrial workspace has been delivered at the Park since 2017.

The new units, which range from 38,000 sq ft to 173,000 sq ft and could support up to 500 jobs, have been developed according to the ‘Indurent Code’ of sustainable construction, achieving BREEAM ‘Excellent’ and EPC ‘A’ standards, as well as providing EV charging infrastructure. The buildings offer up to 15m clear internal height and Grade A office space making them adaptable for a range of uses.

The Park is a major employment hub, supporting 1,500 jobs with employers including Hellman Worldwide Logistics, Supply Technologies, Keylite Roof Windows, London City Bond, LIT Logistics Solutions and Gousto.

Split across two speculatively developed units, the newly completed space has achieved EPC A and BREEAM ‘Excellent’ certifications, with rooftop solar provision designed to lower energy costs for businesses and support the decarbonisation of operations.

Indurent has secured 9.2 MVA of power at the site and has also undertaken extensive landscaping and ecological enhancements to bolster biodiversity within the park.
