Helios Logistics Park – Vienna.
Helios Logistics GmbH and partners AyKa Solution have acquired a 22 hectare site at Vienna Airport for a new logistics park of 80,000 square metres. On site works are well underway and completion is set to be August 2024. It has been fully pre-leased and is set to achieve a OGNI Gold rating.
The site is a former municipal tip and Helios worked with the local authorities in Vienna to design a scheme which left the waste in situ but protected by a thick layer of impermeable clay top and bottom and a new membrane for protection. In addition new inspection tunnels have been built so that we can monitor ground water quality to ensure there is no adverse effect on the local water course. Above ground we have made extensive use of timber in the columns, beams and roof decking as we move to more sustainable construction methods. The park will be powered by PV panels installed on the roofs of the two logistics halls and at ground level on the areas of land which were unsuitable for building. The completed development will be one of the largest in Austria and an exemplar of sustainable development.
