One of Birmingham's newest 'green' buildings is putting its best
foot forward around the city centre to show prospective occupiers
how they can reduce their carbon footprint.
Agents and property professionals were drawn to Metro Bar &
Grill in Birmingham for a taste of what's to come from Langley
Point's new 'welcome to a greener place to work' campaign.
Visitors to the popular watering hole were encouraged to
download the latest Quick Response Code (QR code) from Langley
Point - the only self-contained building of its size and type in
Birmingham - for an exclusive insight into the low carbon benefits
of opting for a greener place to work.
The campaign encoded just some of the ways Langley Point on Bath
Row can help potential buyers reduce their carbon footprint with
greener technology, improved efficiency and renewable energy.
Trigram's director Bill Houle said; "We're aiming to make a big
impact following the launch our latest campaign to lead potential
occupiers to Langley Point.
"The campaign is focused 100 per cent on delivering the green
credentials on offer at the building. With the help of alternative
social media channels, like QR codes, we're able to get new
buildings in front of wider audiences instantly."
Backed by venture partners Folkes Holdings, Corum and Trigram
Properties, Langley Point is one of just a few new BREEAM-excellent
rated commercial developments in the city. Strikingly angular in
design, the 44,500 sq ft building uses the latest in cutting edge
'eco' technologies.
It was purpose-built to keep running and maintenance costs for
the occupier to a minimum, incorporating features including passive
chilled beam cooling for high thermal performance, solar heated
water technology and specialist boilers.
An outstanding 85% of the building's heat can thus be recovered
for re-use and this is complemented with energy efficient lighting
and other energy efficient measures.
Secure parking comprises 90 car park spaces as well as 42 spaces
for cyclists.
