The logistics and supply chain sector is set to benefit from a dedicated new training and research facility that has been developed through a partnership between industry and education based at the heart of the ‘Golden Triangle’ at GLP’s Magna Park development in Lutterworth. The Centre for Logistics Education and Research (CLEAR) will help the sector to address key challenges as the UK moves towards economic recovery and renewed growth following the coronavirus pandemic. North Warwickshire and South Leicestershire College (NWSLC) is working in collaboration with Aston University, Wincanton, supply chain partner, and leading investor and developer of logistics warehouses and distribution parks, GLP to provide skills training and professional development at all levels across the spectrum of logistics and supply chain roles, to enable the sector to become increasingly agile, flexible and resilient. CLEAR is due to launch in the summer of 2021 and will initially be based Bittesby House within the Magna Park Northern extension within the broader Magna Park Lutterworth development, eventually moving to a bespoke, state of the art facility. The ambitions of the centre were revealed to industry at a webinar last month with speakers hosted by Richard Atkinson CBE, Teaching Fellow, Leadership, Strategy, Engagement at Aston University and including NWSLC’s Principal and Chief Executive, Marion Plant, OBE FCGI, Professor Edward Sweeney from Aston University, and Dean Clamp, who is Group HSEQ Director for Wincanton and a board member of the Chartered Institute for Logistics and Transport (CILT). Outlining the challenges currently faced by the sector, Professor Edward Sweeney commented on the central role of skills development within logistics and supply chain in helping the UK to retain its leading role in the sector. He said, “Operating within a highly competitive environment with the challenges of harnessing new technology and ‘big data’ across businesses of all sizes in a changing political and environmental context requires a highly skilled and professional workforce. The aim is that working closely with industry, CLEAR will be ideally positioned to address its needs and provide skills training and development opportunities that are tailor-made for the sector.” Marion Plant said, “Our ambitions for CLEAR are based on offering a holistic one-stop-shop training service both from its base at Magna Park and also remotely online, enabling a flexible skills pathway tailored to meet the needs of specific businesses and providing individuals with well-defined opportunities to progress their careers. “Businesses can train one or many members of their team with flexible start dates and bespoke provision and students will be able to move seamlessly between training partners as their development needs progress and skills gaps are identified, improving retention, and driving down costs. “CLEAR can get training programmes up and running very quickly as it already has systems in place to fulfil training design briefs at all levels. Commissioning training through CLEAR will bring shorter lead times between the identification of training needs and students starting their courses or programmes. Businesses can also benefit from advice on funding for apprenticeships, whether organisations pay the Apprenticeship Levy or not, and can find out how levy-payers can share funds to support training across their supply chain.” Dean Clamp, Group HSEQ Director at Wincanton said, “Over the last twelve months we have seen how much the UK relies on the ability of its logistics and supply chain operators to keep the shelves stocked in the essential retail outlets that have remained open during lockdown. As clients demand increased efficiencies, higher safety standards and greater sustainability, we need to act smarter as a sector and make sure that we are attracting, developing and retaining the highly skilled individuals on which our business relies.” Also commenting GLP Planning Director Gwyn Stubbings said, “As the UK and Europe’s largest and most successful dedicated logistics park, it is fantastic to be able deliver CLEAR within that environment. This is a truly pioneering and exciting initiative that is focused on logistics led research, innovation, education, and training at the heart of Magna Park. “Situated as part of the Magna Park Northern expansion, CLEAR provides students and businesses with the opportunity to immerse themselves in Magna Park as the ‘classroom’ and be an integral part of the ongoing growth and evolution of Magna Park into the UK’s top logistics cluster.” Magna Park Lutterworth, the UK and Europe’s premier logistics hub, developed by GLP over the past 30 years is currently home to over 27 blue chip businesses within 33 buildings. The Park extends to over 10 million square feet of floor space and will expand to 16 million square feet over 1,350 acres via the Northern and Southern expansion project. It is centrally located within the so-called “logistics golden triangle’ between the M1, M6 and M69 motorways. The first phase of provision, commencing when CLEAR opens its doors this summer, will provide the platform for a future national centre of excellence with a campus that will accommodate, when fully operational, up to 1,000 students as well as providing applied research and associated facilities. Businesses that are interested in finding out more about should get in touch via CLEAR@nwslc.ac.uk.
GLP, a leading investor and developer of logistics warehouses and distribution parks, today announces the acquisition of seven logistics real estate assets in Italy. The 200,000 SQ M portfolio acquisition represents one of the largest logistics transactions in Italy this year and was made on behalf of GLP’s pan-European logistics fund Europe Income Partners II (GLP EIP II). Daan van den Hoven, Head of Fund Management & Capital Deployment, Europe, said: “This latest acquisition gives us immediate scale in the Italian logistics market and is in line with our commitment to expand our footprint and deepen our presence in all of the 12 markets in which we operate through strategic acquisitions and developments. Since entering the European market in 2017, GLP has more than tripled its assets under management, and we intend to double this again over the next two years.” Roberto Piterà, Country Director of GLP Italy, said: “GLP’s first acquisition in the Italian market has been a great success and was completed in record time. This is in line with our strategy to acquire and develop well-connected, quality properties located in the main logistics hubs of the country as we grow our offering across both Italy and Europe as a whole. “The recent growth of ecommerce, driven by the pandemic, has significantly increased the importance of logistics in supply chains for businesses of all shapes and sizes. This was a driving factor in our decision to expand our portfolio using our sector-specialism to further support our customers.” The assets acquired in Italy are all grade A rated and are located in the two main logistics hubs in the country namely Milan (five assets, occupying approximately 60% of the total SQ FT) and Rome (two assets, 40% of the total SQ FT). The seven buildings all benefit from excellent connectivity being located close to the main motorway network and are occupied by leading operators in the supply chain, transport, cosmetics and hospital equipment sectors, with customers including XPO and Kuehne Nagel. The portfolio was sold by two funds advised/managed by Tristan Capital Partners and BNP Paribas REIM SGR. In Europe, GLP is one of the longest-standing fully-integrated logistics investors, developers and operators and manages approximately €10 billion (~US$12 billion) of assets under management (AUM) across Europe’s strongest logistics markets. Established in October 2020, GLP EIP II is the company’s fourth Europe-focused investment vehicle and has raised total equity commitments of approximately €1.6 billion (~US$2 billion), enabling the fund to reach €3.2 billion (~US$3.9 billion) of AUM once fully deployed. GLP was supported in this acquisition by CBRE, Dentons and Arcadis, respectively for the commercial, legal and technical aspects.
Caddick Construction is on schedule to complete WS50 at Warrington South Distribution Park, off Lyncastle Road, Appleton. Appointed by Mileway, the largest owner of last mile logistics real estate assets in Europe, work has progressed well on the 50,000 sq ft. single storey warehouse. Planning was granted last year with completion well on target for May 2021. The construction project covers delivery of the warehouse for Class B8 use, with 3,300 sq. ft. of mezzanine office space, loading bays, service yard, trailer and car parking and landscaping. Caddick Construction Managing Director Ian Threadgold said: “The logistics sector is booming at the moment with construction supply having to work hard to keep up with demand, particularly in the North West. Warrington South has both excellent road links and is very much a sought-after location for global and national distributors.” Warrington South Distribution Park overall comprises of 450,000 sq. ft of industrial warehouse accommodation on the 25-acre site which offers a mix of new and flexible warehousing plus external yard space. Existing occupiers include Hermes, Eddie Stobart and DX Mail. It sits close to junctions on both the M56 and M6, enjoying easy access to the M62 and Liverpool ports beyond.

Spectrum Properties, one of Scotland’s largest family-owned property businesses, has scooped a prize industrial facility in Glasgow to add to its portfolio of more than 700 commercial units in the city. It has taken on a 25,000 sq ft former factory on the Dixon’s Blazes Industrial Estate in the South Side for a sum in the region of £800,000, and the company now plans to spend up to £500,000 on a comprehensive refurbishment. Spectrum Properties, which operates all over Glasgow, Edinburgh and Stirlingshire, acquired the property from the Matthew Clark Group, a national drinks wholesaler which supplies thousands of premises across the UK. The group was disposing of the property following a reorganisation. Dixon’s Blazes estate – named after the iron works blast furnaces which lit up the night sky in the 19th century – is a prime industrial area offering high quality industrial, warehouse and office space. Bill Roddie, Managing Director of Spectrum Properties, said: “The estate is located in the Gorbals area and is within walking distance of the city centre. It has enviable transport connections and is only a short distance from the M74. “We intend to carry out a major renovation, including re-roofing, re-cladding, re-plumbing and re-wiring. The unit will be sub-divided into four new facilities, ranging in size from 10,000 sq ft to 3,000 sq ft. Planning applications are already in, and we expect work this month (March 2021) and to last four months.” Mr Roddie said that there was a noticeable shortage of good industrial property in the Glasgow area as markets continue to evolve to accommodate changing consumer patterns and demands. He said: “There is a significant appetite for space for parcel delivery businesses, which are expanding rapidly to deal with the enormous upsurge in online retail, especially since March last year when the pandemic changed everything. “Similarly, because so many people are spending so much of their time at home, there has been a huge increase in companies looking for space to provide products such as replacement windows and doors, garden furniture, sheds and home improvement. “This facility will be a very attractive prospect when we have finished with it, creating a large amount of valuable space in line with all the current regulations and situated in a well-established industrial estate.” Although Spectrum Properties has moved into residential development in the last 10 years, its primary focus remains on commercial property, which comprises some 70% of its group holdings. The company directly employs 75 people and the same number of sub-contractors. It is actively recruiting to cope with rapid expansion. Established by Mr Roddie in 1988, the company now has a portfolio valuation of £60 million and a turnover in excess of £5 million.
Panattoni, the industrial property market leader in Europe, is due to deliver a dedicated facility for TJX Europe, the owner of the TK Maxx brand and a leading off-price clothing and homeware retailer. The 658,051 sq ft distribution centre will be located in Sulechów, Western Poland. This facility will help to supply products to TK Maxx shops in Poland, Germany, Austria and the Netherlands. “Thanks to its strategic location in the centre of Europe, Poland has increasingly become a hub for companies’ operations across the continent.

We are extremely happy to have supported TJX Europe on their development of this strategic regional distribution centre in Poland,” said Tom Listowski, Partner, Head of Industrial and Warehouse, Central and Eastern Europe, Cresa. Tailoring to measure. The BTS project for TJX Europe is another investment implemented by Panattoni for the apparel sector. Like a tailor, the developer tailors a facility to the client’s needs – like a clothing constructor, Panattoni thoroughly analyses the needs, constructs and¬ finally creates a custom design. These individual solutions are determined by a complex supply chain system with a constant flows of goods for new models or by an increasingly complex supply management process. Most of these services are no longer performed in stores but in distribution centres, and Panattoni, as an experienced developer, supports its clients in implementing such investments.
Panattoni, the largest industrial developer in Europe, is set to start work on the second phase of its 1.6 million sq ft industrial park in Northampton. Panattoni Park Northampton is already the home to three former Panattoni buildings and will see further units delivered at 250,000 sq ft, 380,000 sq ft and 430,000 sq ft, totalling over another 1 million sq ft at the park. The second phase of development at the Park comes after Panattoni successfully speculatively developed and let 625,000 sq ft of space to Eddie Stobart Logistics. Winvic Construction Ltd have begun construction on the three new spec units will be developed over two phases, the first being units 250,000 sq ft and 430,000 sq ft with steels emerging in the coming weeks. Finally, the 380,000 sq ft which will commence later in 2021. Each will benefit from the same prominent location based on junction 16 of the M1 motorway, which will see tens of thousands of cars pass the occupiers’ logos each day. All three units will be built to 15m clear internal height and benefit from 50m yards. Northampton sits in the so-called ‘logistics golden triangle’, considered to be the UK’s most strategically important location for distribution. Panattoni Park Northampton is only 20 miles from the M6 and A14. The completed buildings will be built to a BREEAM rating of ‘Excellent’ and have an ‘A+’ EPC rating. Local services have been improved on site as part of the development, with the Red Lion Truck Stop parking area being expanded to accommodate more vehicles, as well as an HGV filling station being added to the existing set of pumps. The section 278 road that leads to the truck stop and main development has also been improved to give better access to the motorway. Once fully occupied, the development could support over 1000 jobs. Oliver Bertram, Development Director at Panattoni, said: “We’re delighted to be continuing the development of 1 million sq ft in Northampton, after only recently completing the three units for Eddie Stobart. This shows that Panattoni has the confidence to deliver speculatively, knowing that the market needs more space. “This park gives businesses an ideal base to serve key markets across the UK, with direct access to the country’s major motorways. Market interest remains high in this area and we are committed to providing the right spaces for businesses to expand their operations. The new units at Panattoni Park Northampton will do just that.” Matthew Byrom, Managing Director at Panattoni, added: “This next phase of development in Northampton demonstrates the success of our high-level business strategy in the UK and the speed and scale at which we work. There are limited opportunities in the UK that will deliver a 1 million sq ft spec option and it’s an important build for industry as a whole and one that we anticipate will soon be let quickly.” Danny Nelson, Director of Winvic Construction Ltd said: “Panattoni Park in Northampton is a scheme that is dear to us. Not only is it close to our head office, we’ve also been on site since 2018, shaping the space with civils and infrastructure works and we then successfully constructed three units simultaneously for Phase 1. “We’re pleased that Panattoni has selected us to deliver more industrial warehouses and that they know Phase 2 is in a safe pair of hands. The challenge is now ours to surpass their expectations once again.” For more details on Panattoni Park Northampton please click this link.
An industrial box is used in different machines in the industry. It is a mechanical device that transfers energy from one machine to another. The industrial gearbox is used to reduce the speed of the motor and increase its torque rotation. It is made up of steel and placed on the engine’s pole and Depending on the machine’s internal composition. The gearbox is very important for industries; a breakdown during work affects the whole industry, so it needs immediate repair. Many gearbox repair companies’ give 24/7 services to satisfy their clients. Industrial gearboxes are made up of steel, but some gearbox manufacturer companies made plastic gearboxes, For example, spur models. There are different types of the industrial gearbox which are used in various types of machine in industries. Like Skew bevel helical gearboxes, coaxial helical line, Bevel helical gearboxes, Worm reduction gearboxes, helical gearboxes, planetary gearboxes. These are some gearboxes, which are mostly used in industries. There are two primary types of industrial gearbox. First is the straight gearbox, which has straight teeth and it is used for low-speed machines, and also it is very rowdy. Another one is the helical gearbox is combining like a riddle. They are used in high-speed appliances and too silent as compared to a straight gearbox. In the industries where the industrial gearbox is mainly mostly as under: Cement industry: In the cement industry, a bevel helical gearbox is used because high torque machines are needed. And bevel helical gearbox has all those functions like reduction in speed and or engine expansion. Paper industry: gearboxes are also used in the paper industry because they need smooth and slung working, and gearboxes are efficient. Sugar industry: In the sugar industry, planetary and helical gearboxes are used because many heavy machines work. Steel industry: in the steel industry, different types of powerful and heavy machines are used like planetary, pinion, and gearboxes. Some factors are essential for the industrial gearbox. Gear ratio: gearbox ratio is the ratio of the number of gears and teeth present in the gearbox. There are two types of equipment currently in the gearbox. And both have their teeth. We can easily calculate the gear ratio by following the step, which is as under first of all separate gears and then counts their teeth if one gear has ten teeth and the other has 20 teeth then the ratio will be one is to 2. Output torque: In the gearbox, speed and torque are inversely proportional with each other if torque is high, then the speed of the machine will low. If you need the output of torque is high, then you need more gear ratio. Load distribution: if you want a gearbox first, you have to find out how much weight the gearbox has to support because if your gearbox bears heavyweight, then it can miss the place from its alignment, which is not suitable for your machine. The industrial gearbox is an essential part of an industry. Without it, the machine will not work accurately; if there is an issue in the gearbox, the device will not function properly, which gives massive loss to the industry and provides enormous devastation to human life. If you want to save your time and machine, you have to give your gearbox adequate care. If you want your gearbox to work for years, you have to take care of oil lubricant frequently because oil is essential for the gearbox to work in continuity. If the oil level is low, it gives you expensive consequences because your gearbox will fail badly, and if you go to repair it will make it costly. If your gearbox is not properly lubricated, it causes many problems in the gearbox, like the gearbox’s surface is damaged. Oil saves the gearbox’s surface from stress and temperature, increasing because of the machine’s speed. Oil lubrication is important because it protects the gearbox’s surface from distress and keeps the internal parts of the machine cool and maintained. For your industrial gearbox’s safety, you have to check the oil level daily; if you feel it is low, and then increase its level.

The units are available for immediate occupation. Occupiers in the surrounding area include Travis Perkins, GEOAmey, Wickes and Halfords, with the Racecourse Retail Park in close proximity. Mike Baugh, Senior Director of Industrial Agency at CBRE, commented: “There continues to be a significant amount of demand for units of this size along the M62 corridor, and Leftfield Park is hitting the market at the right time to satisfy occupier demand, at a time where there is limited supply of good quality space. CBRE’s latest research shows that take-up of UK logistics space in 2020 exceeded that of any other year, totalling 42.97 million square foot. The active Yorkshire market has shown a promising start to 2021, with over 3.5 million square foot currently under offer and we anticipate the continued demand for well-located and specified units to result in significant interest at Leftfield Park which is designed to suit a variety of industrial and logistics occupiers.” Nico Fourie, CEO of Leftfield Advisors, added: “Leftfield continues to add strategic distribution assets, in key locations across the UK, to its portfolio. These include distribution centres, urban logistics warehouses and out-of-town last mile retail centres. Leftfield properties serve occupiers with a consumer focused, online-to-offline (O2O) delivery strategy. Leftfield Park is a valuable addition, both in terms of location and specification, for the underserved M62 corridor.”
