Prologis’ enduring commitment to sustainability encompasses environmental stewardship, social responsibility, ethics and governance. We endeavor to act sustainably across the full lifecycle of our buildings—from the extraction of raw materials through construction and dismantling. When the European floor manufacturer objectflor was looking for a new distribution center, we took the opportunity to develop a facility with industry-leading sustainability features.

Almost 30 years ago, a facility in Hamburg-Hausbruch was built for the microchip manufacturer Philips. The Philips subsidiary NXP later used the buildings briefly, but vacated them in the summer of 2010. In 2011, Prologis, which already owned two other logistics facilities at the location, bought the former Philips’ site to develop a new speculative facility.
