The building also utilises low-pollutant materials which help to provide CCEP employees with an improved, indoor working environment, including better air quality, daylighting, and thermal comfort supported by cutting edge climate control. Efficient LED lights and motion sensors are also used throughout.
Weather resilience also formed an important part of the brief to Charter Hall with a strong focus on creating a building design capable of tolerating future climate-related events such as extreme rainfall and floods, helping to minimise disruptions and ensure continuity of CCEP’s high service levels.
