Urban spaces redesigned for people

OBI The new shopping center covers a total area of more than 20,000 square meters and was built in record time, less than 9 months from the laying of the foundation stone to the turnkey delivery of the new store and restaurant, and was developed with international players such as OBI and Burger King.

A new store of the OBI chain and a “drive” restaurant of the Burger King chain that is already fully operational will be established on the area under development. In addition to a large indoor sales area, the new OBI store features an indoor and outdoor greenhouse garden for garden lovers. The building also houses the offices of the German multinational company and a training center dedicated to the training of OBI Italia staff. The one in San Giuliano is the 55th OBI store and the ninth in the Lombardy region alone of the German multinational, a European leader in the sector. Burger King The Burger King chain’s new restaurant has a seating capacity of more than 100 inside and another 30 outside. The outlet has the King Drive service, thanks to which customers can order directly from their cars every day practically H 24. The restaurant premises follow the innovative design concept designed to offer customers an experience filled with taste and color in a warm and aesthetically appealing environment. The materials used are natural and the use of wood combined with warm colors is predominant. The properties developed entirely by the Vitali Group are built to the most evolved quality standards elevating the efficiency of the property and are provided with state-of-the-art, environmentally sustainable solutions . Quality materials and advanced systems guarantee high quality standards and low energy consumption, while respecting the surrounding environment.

East Milan, from Lombardy to Europe

The “Milano Est” logistics park is located in the municipality of Basiano (MI), near the A4 Milan-Venice freeway, a short distance from the Milanese East Ring Road and in close proximity to Bre Be.Mi and along the main European distribution channels.

The efficient location offers direct connections to the Milan airports of Linate, Malpensa and Orio al Serio. The properties are equipped with underfloor heating systems and special metal facade cladding, providing benefits in terms of energy savings and reduced property management costs as well as physical well-being for workers. All warehouses are equipped with fire protection systems; compartments are made with REI 120 walls.

Leonardo da Vinci Park: the logistics park on the outskirts of Milan

The new industrial logistics facility “Leonardo da Vinci” is located in the center of the Milan area in the municipality of Roncello (MI), close to the most important Italian communication routes and along the main European distribution channels.

The hub summarizes the advantages of the highest quality construction, managing to offer high standards of safety, comfort and functionality. The logistics park is located along the A4 Milan-Venice highway, corridor 5 Europe. Embedded in a road system of national and international interest, the hub can be reached through the Cavenago-Cambiago and Trezzo sull’Adda highway exits. The area in question falls within a recently expanded industrial area that already hosts major manufacturing and logistics centers. The building consists of a building body having a gross floor area of about 50,000 square meters, divided into compartmentalized warehouses, offices and service rooms. The project involves the construction of warehouses with double loading fronts and about 70 loading bays. At the east front of the 1st warehouse, a two-level mezzanine structure will be built to be used for administrative offices and services, suitably arranged with connecting stairs and elevators. In the warehouses, mezzanine structures are planned for departmental offices and related services, complete with locker rooms. The building will be equipped with an American-made N.F.P.A sprinkler system, and compartmentalizations will be made with REI120 walls.

A new strategic logistics hub on the A4 highway

The development originates in the municipality of Isola Vicentina, a locality located about 10 km north of Vicenza, which is well connected to the primary road system via the SS 349 and via the A31 Raccordo Vicenza - Piovene that connect on the A4.

The intervention is inherent to the construction of a warehouse of about 20,000 sq m, of which about 5,000 sq m will consist of the recovery of a portion of an existing building. The office building and basement areas that exist today will also be recovered, which will be used for parking for a total of about 1,500 square meters that will be used by employees, as well as a basement warehouse of about 5,000 square meters.

The warehouse will mainly house DHL’s logistics activities and will have basically standard equipment with loading bays, NFPA sprinkler system, 200 kw photovoltaic system, external bardage (performance facade panels) and LED lighting. The new DHL development is located on a portion of an area of about 45,000 square meters that used to house a housing complex: an old brick kiln.

Next to the lot under development DHL already occupies a property of about 25,000 sq m. This creates a logistics HUB of more than 45,000 square meters. Total employees employed are estimated at about 110 people of whom 80 percent are women and 20 percent are men. Warehousing will be managed at multiple levels and there will be a major part dedicated to packaging.

Logistics supporting port activities

The operation involved the construction of a logistics warehouse of c.a. 10,000 sq.m. inside the Collesalvetti interport, located about 7 kilometers from the port of Livorno, in an area with high accessibility characterized by the presence of important services for transport intermodality.

The logistics building, built for the company Giorgio Gori srl, consists of a large warehouse space for the storage of fine wines and spirits, as well as office space, dressing rooms and related service spaces. The construction of the work was particularly challenging from an engineering point of view because the entire interport is located in an area where, in the past, there were marshy areas, now reclaimed.

Preliminary soil consolidation work, which involved the construction of hundreds of subfoundation piles using the jet grouting technique, turned out to be of fundamental importance; on the soil thus perfectly stabilized it was possible to construct the building.
