Medezin’s production facility has begun operations at the 7R development in Konstantynów Łódzki. This is now the second brand owned by the Pelion Group—Poland’s largest healthcare company—to operate at 7R Park Łódź West I. The space for Medezin was developed under the BTS (Built-to-Suit) model (BTS)“Built-to-Suit” (BTS) is a model for commercial real estate development—most commonly for warehouse or industrial use—designed and built from the ground up to meet the specific, individual requirements of a particular tenant. Unlike off-the-shelf speculative space, a BTS facility is built to order, taking into account the client’s unique technological processes, layout requirements, and technical specifications.Read the full definition → and has been adapted to the specific needs of the pharmaceutical industry.

The developer has provided pharmaceutical manufacturer Medezin with over 3,700 square meters of warehouse and industrial space, divided into a drug manufacturing facility and a wholesale warehouse. Additionally, the company occupies 450 sq m of office space located adjacent to the production and storage areas. The Medezin production facility, launched near Łódź, will supply medicinal products to other companies within the Pelion Group. Its best-known brands include Polska Grupa Farmaceutyczna, the DOZ pharmacy chain, and Natura drugstores.

Łódź is a strategically important location for us. In a building designed in collaboration with 7R, we will launch a production facility where we will manufacture secondary packaging for pharmaceutical products. These types of operations require strictly controlled conditions in the rooms where the products are manufactured and stored. Thanks to close cooperation with the developer, we have been able to create a space that meets our needs and will allow us to grow in the heart of the country.

The facility allows for temperature control within a range of 15 to 25°C. In addition, a cold storage room equipped with a refrigeration unit has been installed for storing medicinal products at temperatures ranging from 2 to 8°C. Air is also exchanged in the production area on a regular basis, every hour. The building features “autodock” loading platforms designed to mitigate temperature fluctuations inside the warehouse during loading operations.

Medezin is the latest pharmaceutical company—following Pharmalink, Cefea, and Marrodent—to entrust us with adapting its facilities to meet the rigorous standards for the production and storage of medications. In the production area of the facility, we implemented features such as daylighting at a level of 12.5% and a highly durable epoxy resin floor. In the storage area, we designated a special zone for products requiring special precautions. We are pleased that 7R Park Łódź West I is an attractive location for both manufacturing and the distribution of pharmaceuticals.

7R Park Łódź West I is a modern warehouse park with a total area of 32,000 square meters, consisting of two Class A facilities, located on Inwestycyjna Street in Konstantynów Łódzki. The proximity to the A1 and A2 highways creates excellent conditions for international, domestic, and local transportation. Its location right next to the newly constructed S14 western bypass guarantees access to adequate infrastructure and good connectivity with the city, making it an attractive location for employees as well. Both buildings comprising 7R Park Łódź West I, thanks to the eco-friendly solutions implemented—which, among other things, improve energy efficiency—are BREEAM-certified. (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method)BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) is one of the world’s most important and widely recognized methods for the multi-criteria assessment of buildings in terms of sustainability, environmental performance, and user comfort. BREEAM certification confirms that the warehouse facility was designed and constructed in accordance with rigorous environmental standards.Read the full definition →.
