Winvic to build new warehouse at Rugby hub

A Midlands logistics hub is set for further expansion with the development of a new warehouse.

Winvic Construction has begun work on a 250,000sq ft single-storey facility at Coton Park, in Rugby, on behalf of Newlands Developments. 

The 60-week programme will deliver a “state-of-the-art unit” with 15,000sq ft of office space, targeting a BREEAM Excellent certification and an EPC rating of A/A+.

Winvic previously delivered two units at the park and has drawn on this experience to overcome complex site challenges. 

Recent enabling works included installing a 34-metre ex-Ministry of Defence tank bridge over a high-pressure gas main and constructing a polystyrene-based road to protect critical utilities.

Danny Nelson, managing director of industrial, distribution and logistics at Winvic, said: “We’re proud to continue our partnership with Newlands Developments to deliver this at Coton Park, Rugby.

“Working with partners, our solution to overcome the complex challenges of this site brought by the gas main, highlights our commitment to safety and a collaborative culture. 

“Marking the start of construction with a groundbreaking ceremony is always a proud moment, and we now look forward to delivering a high-quality facility that meets our client's needs and supports continued growth in this key logistics location.”

Located within the UK’s Golden Triangle, Coton Park offers direct access to the M1, M6 and wider Midlands network, giving direct connectivity to Coventry and Birmingham.
