Kuehne+Nagel, a transport and logistics provider, is setting up in a new 6,500 m² logistics platform near Metz, in Moselle. Made up of 6,000 m² of warehouse space and 500 m² of offices, it is equipped with two ramps, a conveyor, an underground fuel tank with double distribution and an Adblue tank with double distribution, 60 places for light vehicles and 16 places for heavy goods vehicles.

A Breeam certified logistics building
Kuehne+Nagel has integrated the principle of sustainable development into the design of the site. Having obtained Breeam certification, it has 100% LED lighting, electric charging stations and three-flow bins for waste management. Photovoltaic panels should be subsequently installed on the roof.
