UL International headquarters in Poland at the new address
In connection with the development of the company and the continuous expansion of the range of services, the company decided to change the location of the headquarters in Poland.
„UL International is developing very fast all over the world, including Poland. We are constantly expanding the range of our services, which in turn entails the need to hire specialists in specific fields. We decided to relocate, due to the dynamic increase in employment, as well as the need to increase the laboratory space. The new facility, which has been specially designed for us, will take into account a number of technical and quality criteria specific to the research and certification centre. ” – comments Beata Staniszewska, UL Polska Site Leader.
The BTS project for the company will have 3,600 sq m, of which approx. 2 000 sq m will take up the office part. In the technical part of the facility, lighting will be provided in an office standard and above standard double ventilation, due to the laboratory located there.
“In relation to the new facility, the client had several key requirements that were met in the Bolero Office II project. The location of the object was the most important for the client, necessarily in the city centre, due to the employees, their good access to work and frequent business trips, including international ones. The location of the new branch is convenient access to the dense network of public transport and the airport. Another, equally important factor for the client was a much larger technical component than in the standard office buildings. The client has leased approx. 2,000 sq m of office space, due to a large number of employees carrying out conceptual work outside the laboratory.” – add Damian Kińczyk, Industrial & Logistic Consultant in AXI IMMO.
