SGP completes latest unit at innovative Loades Ecoparc in Coventry

Stephen George + Partners (SGP) is celebrating the completion of Unit F on the 15-acre Loades Ecoparc on the outskirts of Coventry. SGP was novated to contractor Warwick Burt Construction as Architect and CDM Principal Designer for the project which comprises a 11,795 sqft (GIA) unit, with first-floor office space, two level access doors and a height of 9m, with 19 car parking spaces.

Having worked with our client Loades Limited since developing the first masterplan for the Ecoparc in 2010, it’s very gratifying to see this latest unit reach completion. Our design for Unit F mirrors the existing units on site, using high-quality materials and exact detailing to deliver Loades’ brief for a quality build.

Flexibility and future-proofing are key elements in the design. Internally, there is the option to install a mezzanine floor, plus a lift; while externally provision has been made to add further EV changing points for HGVs and add EV points to every car parking space. The roof uses a Kalzip standing seam system with thin-film solar panels to provide energy from a renewable source for future tenants. The site has good access to cycle and pedestrian routes and the design also includes cycle parking.

Throughout our work at Loades Ecoparc, we have enhanced each phase of the site, in terms of design and sustainability, to both meet changing market needs and Loades’ commitment to creating a high-quality, technology driven and eco-conscious business park. Unit F is no exception and we look forward to the scheme welcoming its first tenants.
