We Are LEED® Gold Certified
The Hampton Logistics Center proudly stands as a benchmark for sustainable industrial development, distinguished by its LEED Gold Certification. This state-of-the-art facility reflects a commitment to environmental responsibility, energy efficiency, and innovative design. Strategically located and expertly constructed, the center not only supports high-performance logistics operations but also sets a new standard for green building practices in the region. HLC is dedication to reducing environmental impact while delivering exceptional functionality and value to tenants and the surrounding community.
The Environment
Light Pollution Reduction
Exterior site and building mounted lighting have been designed to reduce light pollution in the form of uplight and light spill off the project site. This improves energy efficiency and promotes biodiversity for nighttime wildlife.
Outdoor Water Use Reduction
Project is designed with native and drought tolerant plantings to avoid the need for permanent irrigation systems reducing the potable water demand for the project.
MEP Commissioning
All lighting and lighting controls, mechanical systems and controls, and domestic hot water systems will undergo third-party commissioning to optimize building systems and controls performance.
Building Envelope Commissioning
All exterior building envelope components such as exterior windows, dock doors and roofing systems will undergo third-party commissioning to optimize building envelope and systems performance.
Energy Performance
Buildings have been designed to maximum energy savings throughout the lifetime of building operations. The project is predicted to perform at least 50% better than a baseline ASHRAE 90.1-2010 baseline case building significantly reducing long-term operational cost and reducing the operational carbon footprint for future tenants.
Reduce Carbon Footprint
The project has incorporated 20% Fly Ash into the concrete mix design to directly reduce the embodied carbon footprint of each building. Replacing the traditional Portland Cement in a concrete mix design with Fly Ash directly reduces the carbon emissions associated with concrete.
Sustainable Materials
Buildings are construction with materials containing high recycled content levels and that have been sourced locally to avoid the negative environmental impacts associated with extended transportation of goods.
Low-Emitting Materials
Interior building materials have been selected and installed to meet low VOC requirements and in turn reduce off gassing of materials within the building, creating a healthier indoor environment for future building occupants.
Reduced Construction Waste
The construction team is carefully tracking all waste removed from the project site with the overall goal of minimizing construction waste divert at least 75% by weight from landfill.
Bird Collision Deterrent Design
The buildings have been designed to reduce the chances of bird collisions through exterior fenestration positioning and building materials.
Hampton Logistics Center Rides to End Alzheimer’s in Support of Local Leaders
Hampton Logistics Center proudly sponsored a team in the Virginia Ride to End Alzheimer’s, supporting the fight against a disease that affects millions. The team included Dan Girouard from the City of Hampton, who impressively completed a 100-mile ride, and John Graham, representing the ownership of the center. Their dedication and endurance reflect the shared commitment of the Hampton community to advancing research and raising awareness for Alzheimer’s.
