Kajima Properties Europe (KPE) has begun construction on a prime 12,588 m² logistics building in the Tilburg-Waalwijk region of the Netherlands. This project marks KPE’s third investment in the Netherlands and forms part of the company’s programmatic expansion across Western Europe.
The Tilburg-Waalwijk region is widely recognised as one of Europe’s top logistics hotspots. The annual Logistiek survey of 33 logistics experts ranked it the number one logistics hub in the Netherlands in 2019, 2020, and 2021.
The site offers exceptional connectivity, with direct access to the A59 Motorway, a key east-west route across the Netherlands. It is also well linked to Europe’s two largest ports, Rotterdam and Antwerp, both within an hour’s drive and accessible by boat from Waalwijk and Tilburg barge terminals. Additionally, Tilburg’s cargo railway, which operates a direct line to China three times a week, further enhances the site’s logistical appeal.
The building is being developed to Grade A logistics specifications, featuring over 11,000 m² of warehouse space alongside parking, office, and mezzanine provisions. Sustainability and future-proofing are central to the design, with the building incorporating an off-grid power solution using PV panels and a battery pack, as well as a range of leading ESG credentials.
