Steel-framed G-Park Basingstoke completes

Glencar Construction has completed construction of a 19,450m² industrial/logistics facility at G-Park Basingstoke developed for Wrenbridge, it’s funding partner Bridges Fund Management and leading global logistics operator GLP.

The building, which took just 12 months to construct, features a highly sustainable specification designed to meet the needs of a modern occupier, achieving EPC A+ and BREEAM ‘Excellent’ ratings.

Adstone Construction fabricated, supplied and erected 750t of steelwork for the project, which features a 15m clear internal height, 50kN/m² floor loading, 47m-wide yard depth, 19 dock doors and a two-storey office.

Glencar Managing Director for London and the South, Roy Jones, said: “Delivering another successful project for our much-valued repeat customer, Wrenbridge, marks a significant milestone for us. The advanced features of this facility, including intelligent energy-saving systems and PV panels, enhance operational efficiency and contribute to significant cost savings. Our team’s dedication has resulted in a top-class development that we are excited to showcase.”

The site, on Priestley Road, is part of the established Houndmills Industrial Area, which is home to major occupiers including Sainsburys, Royal Mail, XPO Logistics, Leverton Clarke and GAME. It benefits from excellent infrastructure links and is said to offer an unrivalled opportunity to service the London and wider South-East markets.
