St. Modwen Logistics' Investment In Basingstoke Supports Town's Regeneration

Construction News Image
St. Modwen Logistics has regenerated Viables Business Park in Basingstoke, with an £18.1m investment which saw the property company build 190,000 sq ft of manufacturing space for LevertonHELM - a joint venture between Leverton Lithium and HELM AG.

Leverton Lithium was founded in Basingstoke over 45 years ago, and as LevertonHELM it will occupy the whole of St. Modwen Park Basingstoke, comprising three warehouses and two retail pods, which will be used as staff refectories.

St. Modwen Park Basingstoke provides LevertonHELM with the modern and larger space needed to scale up its production and manufacturing of battery grade Lithium chemicals in Europe. It will also provide additional capacity for the growing needs of its global customers, allowing for an expansion of 20kMT (kilo metric tons) of high-quality lithium chemicals.

LevertonHELM's new buildings come with a range of sustainability features as standard including an EPC A rating, rainwater harvesting, EV charging points and PV solar panels.

Polly Troughton, Managing Director at St. Modwen Logistics, said: "At St. Modwen Logistics we are committed to providing our customers with the space and support they need to succeed. Working closely with the local authority, we are proud to be investing in the redevelopment of the site, which supports LevertonHELM's continued growth and expansion, helping create local jobs and generating economic growth in and around Basingstoke."
