Top-class global players move into rental space Attractive multi-tenant property in Düsseldorf excellently positioned on the market
The TRIGON office building at Schiessstrasse 47-49 in Düsseldorf, developed by the bema group, has already made an outstanding name for itself in recent weeks as the headquarters of top-class, internationally active companies. Another important milestone has now been reached with the handover of the rental space to EPSON Deutschland GmbH: as of today (June 15, 2023), the Japanese technology group is moving into its new German headquarters on the fourth and fifth floors of the multi-tenant property in Düsseldorf-Heerdt, relocating its company headquarters from Meerbusch to the Rhineland metropolis after almost 20 years. In future, 120 employees will work at the new location. In addition to 3,000 square meters of ultra-modern office space, the ten-year lease plus extension option also includes the use of two exclusive panoramic roof terraces.
On this occasion, Henning Ohlsson, Managing Director of EPSON Deutschland GmbH, emphasizes the excellent cooperation with the bema group: "The relocation of the German headquarters from Meerbusch to Düsseldorf is one of the central projects for our company this year. We greatly appreciate the professional cooperation with the bema group - not only in the timely construction of the office space in our new headquarters in TRIGON, but also in the site selection and preparation of the new Industrial Solution Center in Neuss. Once completed, we will find the best conditions here to present our diverse product range to customers from Germany and around the world in an attractive environment." The bema group provided EPSON with comprehensive support in the search for a location for the Industrial Solution Center. Ultimately, bema's own property on the former Pierburg site in Neuss was chosen. This project - as a commercial part of a district development - is currently in the planning permission phase and will also be built by the bema group on a turnkey basis.
Both leases were managed by CBRE as part of a tenant representation mandate. Legal advice was provided to the landlord by the law firm Rotthege.
With the arrival of EPSON, 90 percent of TRIGON's total rental space of 10,300 square meters is now occupied. A 1,100 square meter area on the second floor, which can be divided into two rental areas, is still available. "The letting successes to date confirm the outstanding attractiveness of the location in the business hotspot of Düsseldorf-Heerdt and our strategy of creating new domiciles for global players in this prominent location in the state capital," says Ralph Schneemann, Managing Director of the bema group. Back in 2014, bema built SILIZIUM, an office building for the European headquarters of the Chinese telecommunications group Huawei, in the immediate vicinity.
EPSON INDUSTRIAL SOLUTION CENTER Neuss Building application submitted for modern Demospace building
The bema Group is building a new Industrial Solution Centre for EPSON Deutschland GmbH on the former Pierburg site in Neuss. In the immediate vicinity of its future headquarters in Düsseldorf-Heerdt, which was also developed by the bema Group, the world's leading technology company will present new developments of printing systems, robots and projectors to its customers and set up modern testing and training facilities. The bema Group submitted the building application for the new building in Neuss' Leuschstraße at the beginning of April. The lease agreement with a term of 15 years had already been signed in August 2022.
The Industrial Solution Center has a total lettable area of around 2,600 square metres. Construction can start immediately after planning permission has been granted. If the construction work proceeds according to plan, EPSON will be able to move into the new Demospace building after approximately twelve months. It consists of a single-storey hall area and a two-storey office section. The building will be heated independently by air-water heat pumps. Photovoltaic systems are used to generate electricity. In addition, the roof areas are extensively greened. The property thus meets current standards in terms of environmental protection and climate friendliness and ESG criteria. This also includes the installation of parking spaces for electric vehicles and easily accessible storage facilities for bicycles. The new building thus fits perfectly into the sustainable mobility strategy of the future Pierburg site.
With its clear architectural structure, the EPSON Industrial Solution Center embodies the structural entrance to the newly emerging quarter. "We see this as an initial spark for the development of the former factory site and a clear signal for the settlement of further commercial users," says Lydia Trucksess, the bema Group project manager responsible for the project.
