TVH leases a new warehouse in Ruda Śląska

TVH will relocate its central Tychy-based warehouse to Prologis Park Ruda Śląska early this year, where it has leased over 16,000 sqm of warehouse space and 800 sqm of office space.

“The location in Ruda Śląska serves as a strategic point within TVH’s network of distribution centres. It is our third-largest warehouse globally and second-largest in Europe, primarily catering to clients in Central and Eastern Europe. This aligns with our company’s growth strategy, focusing on raising standards and further enhancing the quality of client service. Additionally, we are expanding our offering of parts for industrial and agricultural equipment to better meet market demands,” comments Marek Adamczyk, Regional Director, Eastern Europe, TVH.

The team of Prologis, the global leader in logistics real estate, has delivered warehouse space designed to prioritise energy efficiency, a comfortable work environment and the client’s unique needs. The building leased by TVH features modern LED lighting with a DALI system that automatically adjusts light intensity using motion sensors. This is complemented by a smart Building Management System (BMS) that continuously monitors utilities consumption and controls HVAC installations. Heating and cooling for the office space are provided by a heat pump system.

To enhance user comfort, the warehouse incorporates skylight strips that provide natural light, improving the employee experience and reducing energy consumption. The Prologis team has customised the warehouse space to meet the client’s specific requirements. Key adaptations included increasing the floor loading capacity to 10T, constructing an internal bunker for storing dangerous goods and a custom racking system. Additionally, the warehouse features a special mezzanine designed for efficient product storage and equipped with emergency staircases that include additional lighting, along with sanitary facilities on each level.

The modern glass façade offers a panoramic view of the area, combining functionality and aesthetics.

“We are proud to welcome TVH as one of our valued clients. At Prologis, we are always ready to customise our warehouse spaces to meet individual client requirements, just as we did for TVH. The company opted for solutions from our Prologis Essentials platform, which offers a vast array of additional services designed to facilitate a quick and smooth move-in process and seamless daily operations. Through Essentials, we provide diverse solutions, from the simplest ones such as racking systems or forklift leasing through to more complex projects like the installation of renewable energy sources, EV chargers, and the special mezzanine delivered for TVH’s warehouse,” says Katarzyna Nobis, Leasing & Customer Experience Manager, Prologis.

TVH was advised during the lease of its new warehouse by Cushman & Wakefield specialists who also prepared technical specifications to adapt the building to the client’s needs.

“The relocation of companies such as TVH is a fascinating and multi-faceted challenge. A key aspect of this process is, above all, selecting the right location - one that provides easy access to consumer markets while meeting employees’ needs. The relocation should not affect the positive employee experience. Additionally, it is essential to find a property that would support a tenant’s ESG strategy and guarantee long-term sustainability, including energy efficiency,” comments Konrad Jacewicz, Associate, Industrial & Logistics Agency, Cushman & Wakefield.

Prologis Park Ruda Śląska is a logistics centre filled with innovations. Upon full build-out, it will offer nearly 125,000 square metres of space. The park incorporates numerous solutions to enhance cost efficiency while ensuring sustainability. Space in all its buildings meets NFPA requirements and is designed for high-bay storage of up to 12.4 metres. The buildings are also equipped with advanced online temperature control systems, and energy-efficient, automated LED lighting of the highest quality. Co-packing areas benefit from natural daylight, creating a more comfortable work environment in the warehouse. Additionally, a 50kW photovoltaic system has been installed in the green areas of Prologis Park Ruda Śląska, with energy generated used to power common areas within the logistics centre.

Prologis Park Ruda Śląska is located less than 10 km from the centre of Katowice and just 1.5 km from the A4 motorway junction, which connects to the A1 motorway, 19 km away. The park is also within a 35 km drive of an airport.
