Rhenus opens green new Nuneaton site

[ June 23, 2023   //   ]

Rhenus Warehousing Solutions UK has officially opened its new site in Nuneaton. Built by Baytree Logistics Developments, the Rhenus Campus is “BREEAM Outstanding” and has two warehouses, measuring 1 million sq ft – 210,000sq ft and 771,000sq ft – on 64 acres. The first warehouse totals 210,000 square feet, the second warehouse, which had its roof installed in March 2023, is 771,000 square feet.

Renewable energy will be generated on-site, with solar panels and air source heat pumps, and electric car charging points are being installed. Bat and bird boxes, hedgehog homes and habitat boards made from recycled timber complete the sustainability features that are being introduced at the site, with Rhenus and Baytree also planting between 700 and 900 native and orchard trees.

It will help Rhenus achieve its goals of reducing direct carbon emissions by 60% by 2030 and net zero carbon emissions by 2045.
