Distribution and logistics

The distribution, logistics and industrial sector has experienced unprecedented growth over recent years, presenting challenge and opportunity for the design and development of market-leading facilities.

Achieving Biodiversity Net Gain

Development schemes in England are required to deliver 10% biodiversity net gain (BNG) for at least 30 years. Emphasis is placed on enhancing habitats and improving biodiversity on site over time.

Achieving BNG on crowded distribution sites is challenging, so addressing BNG during planning applications is key to preventing costly delays further down the line. Our team can help you avoid harm to habitats and efficiently utilise space on logistics sites to achieve BNG.

How to achieve Biodiversity Net Gain

Designing for wellness

Optimising supply chain management for maximum value is a critical part of the logistics process. Design revolves around end-user functionality, but also at the core lies the goal of creating a desirable space for the workforce.

Embedding wellbeing into design can foster employee productivity and retention. Our team specialise in helping our clients achieve industry standards; guiding them through the intricacies of the WELL standard to deliver logistics spaces that enhance the occupant's health and quality of life.
