City logistics site in Hamburg-Billbrook

In the middle of the established logistics hotspot Hamburg-Billbrook, we are developing a sustainable and future-ready city logistics site that creates space for modern, flexible uses. The focus is on ESG-driven revitalization, sustainable energy supply and an optimized layout for logistics, e-commerce and urban production. The property complements our activities in Billbrook – another milestone for our sustainable urban logistics strategy after BROOKKAMP.

Year of Construction/refurbishment:

1995 / 2012

Site area:

10.555 sqm

Rental Area:

7.302 sqm

Location:

Porgesring 22, 22113 Hamburg​

Hall height

3,20 m – 11,20 m

Parking spaces

28

Location and Connection

The logistics building is located in the Billbrook industrial estate, Hamburg’s second largest commercial location. Following our successful BROOKKAMP project development, this is INBRIGHT’s second development in this sought-after area.

  • Optimal transport connections: Direct connection to the A1 highway for interregional transportation
  • Other highways: A24 and A25 can be reached in less than 10 minutes
  • Proximity to the Port of Hamburg – ideal for logistics-intensive uses
  • Public transport connections: approx. 30 minutes to Hamburg Central Station
  • Neighborhood: Hermes, STILL, Group7 and others.

History

The property was originally built as a joinery and was converted into a contemporary logistics property in 2012. Thanks to its excellent connections and flexible floor space layout, the location, which was acquired by INBRIGHT and Patron Capital at the end of 2024, is particularly suitable for companies in the logistics, e-commerce, retail and urban production sectors.

Project status & ESG-Strategy

January 2025 saw the start of the revitalization of the property, with ESG measures at its core:

  • Roof renovation & conversion of the heat supply to renewable energies
  • Increased energy efficiency through new electrical systems, modern LED lighting & motion detectors
  • Flexible multi-tenant structure – enables a wide variety of usage concepts and thus increases multi-tenant adaptability.

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.
