light industrial & logistics park

A light industrial & logistics park with 24,500 square meters of rental space was completed in Hamburg’s Billbrook industrial estate in summer 2024. As part of a sale and leaseback transaction, the resident ROFIN-SINAR Laser GmbH, a Coherent Group company, sold the site and leased back large parts of the existing space on a long-term basis. After being revitalized, the unrented existing space was leased to the local industrial service provider Franke & Pahl GmbH. A multi-storey parking lot with 136 parking spaces was built at the same time as the existing development. 

In addition to the existing buildings and the multi-storey parking lot, a further 10,100 square meters of new construction space was developed in the form of two light industrial properties for Industry 4.0. Individual built-to-suit solutions were implemented with a total of four users in the spaces, which are now fully let. The project combines a central location to the city center with good connections to the freeway and enables 24/7 operation. 

The property was sold in spring 2025.

location and Connection

Billbrook is one of Hamburg´s logistics hotspots. The site can be reached from the A1 and A24 motorways in under five minutes, and the inner city is just fifteen minutes away. Billbrook is Hamburg´s and Northern Germany´s second-largest industrial area, after the Port of Hamburg, with just under 1,000 businesses and around 22,000 employees. Hamburg-Billbrook is home to a broad range of industrial production from mechanical engineering, the manufacture of chemicals and plastics, to the production of food. There are also a large number of freight, warehousing, and supply companies, as well as wholesalers, building firms, and waste processing/recycling plants.

The property is just a short walk away from the 432 bus-stop and the Billstedt underground station. It also has an excellent connection to the long-haul transport network via the B5 leading to the A1 and A24 motorways.

The property extends over Berzeliusstraße 63 to 87 and Billbrookdeich 188, 190 in 22113 Hamburg.

History

Eight buildings built between 1981 and 1990 were located on the 29,000 square meter site, which was a production site of ROFIN-SINAR Laser GmbH, a Coherent Group company. ROFIN-SINAR remains at the site as part of the sale-and-lease-back transaction and consolidated its rental space. INBRIGHT acquired the site in September 2020.

Our Contribution to the sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted in 2015 by the member states of the United Nations.
They set a road map for the sustainable social, economic and environmental transformation of our world by 2030.

The SDGs also offer us as a company a framework for contributing to a positive future for the world. Our ESG strategy is our contribution to tackling the greatest worldwide challenges, especially to achieving the following SDGs:

We respect diversity, a fair pay and participation structure and the indivdual promotion of out team members, thus contributing to equality of opportunity.

Economic success and a profitable investment strategy are for us the foundation for securing attractive jobs in the long term and contributing to healthy economic growth.

We promote a low-emission infrastructure by locating our properties close to existing residential areas, offering our tenants access to public transport. We modernise and reposition old industrial and commercial properties to make their use lower in emissions, cleaner and more flexible, thus making a noticeable contribution to sustainable industry.

When building and repairing our properties, we are careful to use innovative and engery-efficient systems so as to aviod unnecessary environmental pressures on the surrounding area. Wherever compatible with legislation and the comfort demands of our users, we reduce technical equipment to a minimum to promote the longevity of our properties.

We align both our company and our property projects to ESG criteria. This includes planning our properties in a way that is sparing of resources and ensures them a long useful life with maximum flexibility. We also maintain open interactions in the spirit of partnership with all those involved – from planners and building firms through to the eventual user.

Reducing emissions, especially CO2 emissions, has a high priority for us within our ESG strategy. We as a company aim to reduce and compensate for our CO2 footprint to make the most effective contribution we can to protecting the climate.

How we derived Our ESG strategy

In an initial workshop, we first developed core values for our company. The development of an ESG strategy for INBRIGHT is based on this: main topics were determined and validated based on a fixed evaluation scheme in a two-day workshop. On the one hand, the topics result from the requirements of national and international industry standards and frameworks, such as DGNB, LEED and GRESB, and, on the other hand, from general sustainability standards, such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Sustainable Development Goals. The list of topics was ultimately supplemented by specific industry requirements from the Light Industrial area. The collection of topics was classified based on a fixed evaluation scheme in a materiality assessment using a two-dimensional matrix with the dimensions “Relevance to business” and “Effects on the government and society”. The topics with the highest values in both dimensions, and hence being above the materiality threshold, form the basis of our ESG strategy or our sustainability programme. The materiality assessment is revalidated annually with the participation of internal and external stakeholders and the assessment of the topics is adjusted accordingly.
