Panattoni is to build a new industrial park in the Mazovia region. The development of Panattoni Park Sochaczew with an area of almost 28,000 sqm will commence in the first quarter of 2025 with the first tenant – Pilkington Automotive Poland – to move in by November of the same year.


Panattoni Park Sochaczew is to be constructed in the western part of Mazovia next to the DK50 national road with ready access to the DK92, as well as the A2 (12 km) and the A1 motorways (50 km). Located 55 km from Warsaw and 75 km from Łódź, the centre will provide good opportunities for the development of logistics both nationally and internationally.

“Sochaczew stands out as a pivotal logistics location in Mazovia, providing excellent connections to the extensive Warsaw market and other regions across Poland. Here, we will create modern facilities that support the growth of our clients’ businesses and meet the highest standards of sustainable construction”, said Michał Samborski, the Head of Development at Panattoni.

The first tenant to take up space in the new park will be Pilkington Automotive Poland, a global manufacturer of automotive glass. By relocating its existing warehouse in Sochaczew to a larger and more modern facility, the company will improve its logistics capabilities and provide better storage for its goods. Around 100 people are to be employed in the new centre.

“We are impressed by the professionalism of the Panattoni team, their organisational efficiency throughout the negotiations and their ability to reschedule a project to meet the need of our business to relocate the distribution centre that services the logistics for Poland, Central and Eastern Europe as well as exports to Africa”, stated Janusz Kobus, V-ce President of Pilkington Automotive Poland Sp. z o.o. 

The development is to be certified under BREEAM for a rating of Excellent. The industrial park will come equipped with numerous energy-saving solutions including LED lighting, skylights for natural interior lighting, a modern fire safety system, technology to minimise water consumption and a large manoeuvring area with parking for both cars and trucks.
