German wire harness systems producer for the automotive industry Kromberg & Schubert leased 2,000 sqm of office space in Vox Technology Park in Timisoara.
Kromberg & Schubert is one of the most important automotive suppliers from Romania, with three factories in Arad, Sibiu and Timis, and a research and development centre in Sibiu. The company has over 3,500 employees working in the country.
”Future success depends on our flexibility and relocating our office in Vox Technology Park will ensure us of that. Last year we signed a contract for seven years and we will continue to develop in Romania. We have already relocated our offices into the new space, where our team will benefit from the best conditions, ideal for developing and nurturing,” said Marius Petrică, commercial director within Kromberg & Schubert Romania Ti.
In May last year, Vox Technology Park went through an intensive campaign of implementing preventive and security measures. Two thermal body scanners were acquired and installed, cleaning and air filtration devices (nebulizers) were installed in the conference rooms, sensor devices were installed in all the common areas and bathrooms and the traffic flow of the entire building was redesigned.
2020 was in fact an excellent year for Vox Technology Park, over 6,300 sqm of office space being leased since the outburst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
”We’ve worked very hard throughout the last year and all these closed transactions give us confidence that we’re doing a great job. We also increased health safety in the building and more and more employees are eager to come to the office more often. We stood side by side with all of our tenants and partners and, although it was difficult, 2020 was a year with exceptional results for Vox Technology Park and we have similar goals for 2021 also,” said Mark Oancea, development director Vox Property Group, the developer and owner of the office project.
Vox Technology Park also obtained in 2020 the sustainable certification BREEAM In-Use, with Outstanding rating, the highest existent at an international level. The project is also the first in Romania that obtained this ranking after the newest and most rigorous BREEAM certification scheme, released in May 2020.
Vox Technology Park has a leasable area of 26,600 sqm and was completed in Timisoara following an investment of 30 million euros. The project offers unique facilities at the national level, such as the possibility of biometric identification, but also numerous competitive advantages for employees. The company is also developing the Vox Vertical Village residential project, located in the immediate vicinity of the office project.
