The win showcases how Rhenus is focused and committed to energy efficiency, carbon reduction and implementing environmental initiatives.

UKWA’s prestigious Awards recognise excellence in the warehousing sector and highlight the achievements of the industry’s top performing professionals and organisations. This year, a record-number of entries were submitted across ten categories.

Rhenus Warehousing Solutions UK is a logistics supplier that provides sustainable warehousing, fulfilment and returns processing to multi-channel retailers and brands across a range of sectors. The company is in the process of building two brand-new sustainable warehouses in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, known as the ‘Rhenus Campus’. The first warehouse, measuring 210,000 square feet, officially opened in June this year.

The site measures one million square feet in total, situated on 64 acres, and is certified “BREEAM Outstanding”, meaning it will reach the highest level of sustainability and be one of the greenest warehouses in the UK, set new standards for environmental protection, and help customers achieve their own net zero goals.

The ‘Rhenus Campus’ also features extensive green spaces, a pond, a wildflower grassland and meadow, and homes for local wildlife, including birds, bats and hedgehogs, made from recycled timber. Renewable energy will be generated onsite via solar panels and air source heat pumps, and electric car charging points are being installed.

Kerry Delaney, Regional Director – Europe North-West at Rhenus Warehousing Solutions UK, said: “We are immensely proud to have won the UKWA Award for Excellence in Sustainability. At Rhenus, being sustainable is a core part of our ethos and we have made it a top priority at our ‘Rhenus Campus’. We are hugely committed to positively impacting the environment and paving the way for sustainable logistics, and are so thrilled that our efforts and dedication have been recognised by such an important industry association.”
