BREEAM Excellent

BREEAM Excellent rating targeted placing this warehouse in the top 10% of warehouses in the UK for sustainability.

With our Chippenham site, we knew it was going to be our biggest warehouse to date, so the need to appeal to local talent was more pertinent than ever. We were impressed by the range of wellbeing facilities on offer in the warehouse space, which we saw would make it easier to recruit the best people. We have amazingly rich local amenities—from the park and fitness trail to outdoor seating areas where people can eat lunch together. We have been able to create hundreds of jobs since opening last year in a space where everyone genuinely enjoys coming to work.

The space is light, bright and airtight – meaning the warehouses are flooded with natural light and provide a stable temperature all year round to create a pleasant working environment. Huboo’s leadership emphasises the positive impact these amenities have on attracting and retaining talent, creating a space where employees genuinely enjoy coming to work.

Sustainability

The unit is built to the BREEAM Excellent standard and has an EPC A rating, ensuring energy efficiency. It is also equipped with electric vehicle (EV) charging points for employees, and the building has solar PV panels to support carbon-neutral operations.

Environmental impact

Huboo’s commitment to sustainability is reflected in the site’s focus on biodiversity, including the preservation of green spaces, ecological enhancements, and a bat corridor.

Cost savings

The energy-efficient design of the building and the solar PV panels contribute to reduced operational costs by lowering energy consumption and helping Huboo meet its sustainability goals, ultimately reducing their carbon footprint and energy expenses.

“Running a sustainable fulfilment business isn’t easy, which is why we put ESG at the forefront of our real estate decisions and consider every possible avenue for improving our eco credentials as we grow.”

“At Chippenham, the warehouse includes BREEAM Excellent standard and EPC A-rated buildings, as well as EV charging points for employees, benches with solar-powered charging points, and a site-wide commitment to biodiversity.”
