VolkerFitzpatrick To Build Distribution Units At Prologis Park Hemel Hempstead

VolkerFitzpatrick has been chosen by Prologis UK to design and build five new distribution units at Prologis Park Hemel Hempstead, within Maylands Business Park.

The project is scheduled to run from March 2024 to Q1 2025, with enabling works having recently commenced.

This is the second project VolkerFitzpatrick has worked on at Prologis Park Hemel Hempstead and once complete will see the Park grow by over 280,000 sq. ft., with units ranging between 19,000 and 75,000 sq. ft.


All of the new units have been designed with customer needs and sustainability in mind and will feature terraces, outdoor amenity areas and easy walking and cycling access for local communities. The units will all include a rooftop solar array, target EPC A+ and BREEAM 'Outstanding' ratings, and will align with the UKGBC zero carbon in construction framework.

Stuart Deverill, managing director of VolkerFitzpatrick's Building division, said: "I am delighted that VolkerFitzpatrick has been chosen to deliver this significant expansion. We have been working with Prologis for many years and our strong, collaborative approach has enabled us to deliver innovative and sustainable projects whilst setting new standards for workplace wellbeing."

The development forms part of a drive to deliver long-term, high-quality infrastructure, in line with the Think Hemel initiative, a vehicle to promote and drive investment for the town.
