Office ergonomics

Kielce-based Echo Investment (EI) has signed a contract with Fakt Budownictwo for the construction of two out of the six buildings planned for the Malta Office Park on ul. Baraniaka in Poznań. The contract calls for Fakt Budownictwo to finish the two buildings by April 2008.

"Our project is the first of its kind to be created along the office-park formula. We're glad that we can act out the role of pioneer in this regard in the capital of the Wielkopolska region and introduce a new standard," said Waldemar Lesiak, director of EI's office department.

Upon its completion, Malta Office Park will offer a total of 26,000 sqm of office space in its five and six-storey buildings, as well as 2,000 sqm of warehouse space and a parking lot for 600 cars. The open- space formula EI is applying in this project will enable the future tenants to arrange the space in a more flexible way.

"Malta Office Park will be built according to EI's principles of ergonomic business, which takes into account all the natural advantages of the particular location and influences the quality of work for future tenants," Lesiak added.

Malta Office Park will be the 10th office building project in EI's portfolio. The company also specializes in residential, shopping-center and hotel buildings. Currently EI is also working on projects in Gdańsk, Katowice, Kielce, Kraków, Szczecin and Warsaw. The investment plan of the company through 2011 includes a total of 38 projects worth E1.3 (zł.4.97) billion.
