Kazimierz Office Center is an office building where effective and wise management goes hand in hand with high class technical and technological solutions. The very high rating given once more to ecological certification proves that this approach guarantees maintaining the high quality and value of the building
Magdalena Ruta, Head of Office Asset Management Poland, GLL Real Estate Partners GmbH
We are pleased that the building has once again become part of the BREEAM certification standards at the "Excellent" level. Providing supporting services to tenants, we see that they are paying more and more attention to the fact whether an office building is designed and built in accordance with the principles of sustainable building, i.e. if it is environmentally friendly and energy-efficient. Additionally, it should also be managed in a way that minimises its environmental footprint and maximises the comfort of occupants and visitors. This is an extremely important issue, especially for office buildings that are several years old and want to gain in value and compete with younger rivals
Małgorzata Sęk, Senior Property Manager, BNP Paribas Real Estate Poland
The standard of the office complex includes: suspended ceilings, raised floors as well as BMS and HVAC systems and modern telecommunications systems ensuring comfort and stability of work. In addition to 16,000 sqm of class A office space, Kazimierz Office Center also houses retail premises, and employees and guests can use a two-storey underground car park with over 200 parking spaces. One of great advantage of the building is natural lighting of the majority of premises, as well as the vicinity of a modern shopping and entertainment centre with a rich offer of not only shops and service outlets, but also of its food court. One of the anchor tenants of the office project is State Street, a global financial institution providing services to institutional investors, including funds and insurers.
Sustainable development, climate change and environmental issues are one of the pillars of our global CSR strategy. They also affect the quality of our workplaces As an organisation, together with our employees, we take a number of measures aimed at protecting the environment and using natural resources more economically. Our largest buildings in Poland have "green certificates" in various systems (BREEAM, LEED), always with very high ratings. Working in "green office buildings" is one of such pro-ecological activities
