For which companies
is CitySwitch ideal?
Users
CitySwitch was developed for companies that literally want to be close to their customers, but do not want to set up their own logistics centre. Typical for every hub is the convenient location in an easily accessible location on the outskirts of the city, or on an access road. With the electric charging infrastructure, CitySwitch makes it possible to have inner city transport with emissionfree vehicles or cargo bikes. CitySwitch not only makes an impact in Last Mile Logistics, but also helps companies to reduce their carbon footprint.2 voetafdruk te verkleinen. |

Healthy workplace
De focus op duurzaamheid betekent ook aandacht voor
de werkomgeving. Waar distributiecentra vaak volledig zijn
ingericht op de logistieke processen, stelt CitySwitch de
gebruiker centraal. De logistieke behoeften zijn geborgd, maar
dan in een gezond, prettig en veilig werkklimaat. De omgeving
is groen en er is veel daglicht op de werkvloer. Iedere locatie
is voorzien van een dak- of buitenterras, een aangename plek
om even te ontspannen. Kortom: CitySwitch creëert de juiste
randvoorwaarden voor efficiency in logistiek, maar dan wel
met menselijke maat. Die combinatie biedt volop kansen om
gemotiveerd personeel te werven en te behouden.
What makes CitySwitch sustainable?
The CitySwitch concept was developed based on a circular, nontoxic
philosophy. During construction, the reusability of materials is
taken into consideration and the energy supply is sustainable, for
example through gasless heating and solar panels on the roof. In
addition, the environment literally turns green, both on the facade,
on the (roof) terrace and in the warehouse. The pavement in the
parking zone is water permeable. This prevents flooding and is
good for the groundwater. In a nutshell: CitySwitch is sustainable
from foundation to roof.
