TEGRA, a construction chemical product development company located in the business center developed by the NREAL group, has invested in a comfortable interior for its employees, designed by the famous Japanese architect Akiko Tutlys and the Lithuanian architect Miglė Šalnaitė.
"We chose the location for the new company office in the HIGHWAY business center not only because of its high energy class, which will significantly reduce office costs in the future, but also because of the opportunity to create a distinctive, unique and comfortable space. It was very important for us to have the freedom to plan the rooms as we want, not as dictated by the partitions. We had a need to create an office space where managers do not have separate offices, we installed spacious meeting and leisure rooms. We paid a lot of attention to acoustic solutions - we laid a double carpet, selected sound-absorbing furniture, covered part of the ceiling, which allowed us to harmonize the designer's idea and not destroy the efficiency of the acoustic system. In order to fulfill our needs, we had to find a real estate developer that responds flexibly to the client's needs," says TEGRA CEO Povilas Staigis.
The INREAL group invested almost 5 million in the development of the HIGHWAY business center. euros. It is the first business center in Lithuania to receive an A+ energy efficiency class certificate.
"The high energy efficiency class allows you to ensure thermal comfort and air quality with minimal energy costs. Electricity consumption for heating and building lighting is about 1 EUR/sq.m. m per month both in the warm season and in the cold season. We are satisfied with this result, because we help tenants save funds spent on office maintenance and companies can invest them in more important areas", says Agnius Tamošaitis, head of INREAL Real Estate Management Department.
The HIGHWAY business center is located in the first row at Savanorių Avenue, one of the main transport arteries of Vilnius. The total area of the HIGHWAY business center is 5420 square meters. m., and the total area of the rented premises is 4900 sq. m. m.
"We have leased almost the entire office building. About 10 percent of vacant premises remain. – this is a healthy vacancy rate for the building. We believe that the investments in a higher energy efficiency class have paid off, in addition, we have gained experience in developing A+ energy efficiency class projects", says A. Tamošaitis.
