What environmental solutions were built into the complex?

From the first design decisions, the São Lourenço II complex focused on sustainability. CH3 guided the project by the principles of the leading environmental certifications, such as LEED, and by a commitment to preserving the environment and natural resources. This translated into concrete solutions for water, air, energy and vegetation.

Water, air and energy

Water

In the dam and road system work, CH3 put into practice the main principles of diverting water and returning it to its natural bed. In the warehouse, a water reuse system supplies yard washing, landscaping and toilet flushing, which reduces the use of fresh water. The complex also received 5 kilometers of sewer line connected to the city's treatment plant.

Air and thermal comfort

The warehouse of more than 80,000 m² runs on a system that provides three air changes per day, by density. As a result, the space maintains natural thermal comfort and excellent air quality through natural ventilation.

Energy

The daylighting design was calculated so that the warehouse interior uses little artificial light. The result is a system that cuts energy consumption by up to 30%.

Reforestation

In the first phase, the development reforested an area of approximately 140,000 square meters, planting 12,000 native tree seedlings. This is the environmental offset for a site of almost 1 million square meters set aside for logistics use.

A standard for the next phases

The two warehouses planned for the next phases will be built to the same standards of sustainability, efficiency and modernity as the first. When the industrial logistics park is complete, with 350,000 square meters of built area on 1 million square meters of land, the solutions adopted in the first phase will have been replicated across the complex.
