Programme Overview
Tour: DC1 Prologis Bromford Gate
DC1 Prologis Bromford Gate – this building became vacant recently, having previously been occupied by Bromford Industries since 1999, manufacturers of titanium jet engine blades for Rolls Royce Aircraft. The building has been fully refurbished to Prologis standards – resulting in a building that is as sustainable as if it were newly built.
