The work on the plot of the old Ibérica Aga in the outer industrial estate of the Free Zone has a budget of 2,035,555 euros (VAT not included) and a completion period of 14 months upon obtaining the construction permit
The project has been drafted by Carquero Arquitectura and will result in a building made up of recycled maritime containers
The space, versatile and with a novel image, will articulate the connection between the outer polygon of the Free Zone and the rest of the city and will be in line with the new industrial model of the Free Zone, based on sustainability and respect for the environment.
The Cadiz Free Zone will publish in the coming days the tender for the construction work of the building that will house the Zona Base blue economy incubator, the space for innovation and technological expansion that will be built on the plot of the former Ibérica Aga in the outer industrial estate of the Free Zone subsidized with Feder Funds, after the Executive Committee of the Consortium in its meeting this morning has approved the project and the contracting file for the works.
The construction work of the building in which Incubazul will be installed, subsidized with European funds within the Framework of the FEDER Operational Program of Andalusia 2014-2020, “A way of making Europe” through the Incyde Foundation of the Chambers of Commerce, will be carried out in the UE-ZF-08-A of the outer industrial estate and will have an execution budget of 2,034,555 euros and an execution period of 14 months from obtaining the construction permit.
The Base Zone project has been drafted by the Cádiz architect Carlos Peinado, from the Carquero Arquitectura studio, who has described it as a reference center, a model to follow in sustainable industry and a new way of doing and living the workplace, which from the heart of the industrial zone of Cádiz will be projected to the rest of the city.
It must be remembered that in the month of October, the Zona Franca obtained initial approval for the reparcelling project from the Cádiz City Council, a fundamental document because it allows the project to continue advancing while the final documents arrive, in addition to beginning the marketing of the plots that are included in these lands of the outer polygon of the Zona Franca and that are located next to what will be the Base Zone.
The building that will house Incubazul will be a reference in the new sustainable industrial model committed to the environment that the Cádiz Free Zone is carrying out since the concept of sustainability begins with the construction itself, which will be carried out with recycled maritime containers, whose useful life is around 10/15 years, and continues with the opening of the facilities to green spaces and free areas or the use of energy from the roof. photovoltaic.
The building has a total constructed area of 1,951.33 m2 and 1,415.73 m2 of terraces and open spaces and is made up of three floors in height, in addition to the ground floor. All floors will have terraces and free spaces and the ground floor includes coworking, training rooms, a cafeteria and bicycle parking, as well as surface parking on the same plot. Seven offices have been planned on the first floor and thirteen on the second. The third floor is planned with spaces for management, meeting rooms, staff and a technological laboratory.
The implementation of the Zona Base project and its Blue Economy incubator represent a starting point for the global planning and development of the outer polygon and has required, since its inception, a complex urban planning procedure that Zona Franca is promoting in collaboration with the City Council, with which it is in permanent dialogue and with which a collaboration agreement was signed a year ago that included the streamlining of the necessary procedures and procedures with the aim of These actions can serve as a stimulus and model for the comprehensive reorganization of the exterior polygon.
The Cádiz Base Zone project and its Blue Economy incubator were born to attract industry 4.0. and generate a space of opportunity for Cádiz talent. Thus, the Consortium is committed to a sustainable economic model and respect for the environment that connects all the marine potential of our province with new business strategies that generate wealth and employment.
