Sustainable Development Goals

Rebuilt with history, repurposed for the future.

Redevelopment of Fokker factory site into the high-quality and well-secured Fokker Logistics Park. In which there is room for logistics buildings, a data centre, spare parts centres and a training centre.

This redevelopment was inspired by the Cradle-to-Cradle principle. We revitalised the site of former aircraft manufacturer Fokker into a sustainable, logistics centre next to Schiphol Airport. For the process of rebuilding, we left part of the buildings standing and reused 97% of the materials on site. This led to the nomination in 2015 for a Plabeka Award, the best industrial area and redevelopment project in the Amsterdam metropolitan region. Another important aspect of this project is the integrated area development applied here.

We took a holistic approach to the entire project. That means we didn't just look at the buildings but at all relevant aspects. This integrated area development means that it has become a site with lots of greenery, water features and recreational opportunities for the people working at the park. The idea behind this is that people feel happier that way.
