Industrial building construction in Alicante

We build premises for manufacturing, storage and logistics, as well as buildings to let that the owner wants ready for the next tenant. In every case the building is handed over finished, with its services and its documentation, not in separate packages.

An industrial building starts with the plot: access, gradients, utility connections and what the industrial estate's by-laws (ordenanza del polígono) allow. With that, and with what your operations need, we choose the structural system together with the designer.

A steel frame allows large spans and later alterations. Precast concrete brings fire resistance and quick assembly. Then come the cladding, the roof, the floor slab, the loading docks and the site works. All on one schedule and with one party responsible.

Before pricing, we agree with you on the things that weigh most on the cost and use of the building: the clear height under the beams, the load the floor slab can bear, the number of docks and the electrical power you need. These decisions are hard to change later, and they are best taken with the design in front of you, not once the works are under way.

Many companies cannot close in order to expand. That is why we plan the works with your production or warehouse manager: separate zones, independent site access and noisy work at the times that affect you least.

Safety is part of the plan: forklift routes kept apart from construction routes, enclosed areas for storing materials and daily coordination with your team. We agree all of this in writing before we start.

Each phase is handed over before the next one opens. That way the building keeps working while it grows, and you know at all times which part is under construction.

We also refurbish entire industrial buildings for a change of activity or a new tenant: roof, cladding, floor slab, services and offices, until the building is ready for its next use.

Inside the building we construct offices, changing rooms, toilets and storage mezzanines. And we install the services your activity requires:

• Low-voltage electrical installation, distribution boards and lighting for the warehouse floor and the offices.
• Fire protection: detection, extinguishing and evacuation according to the level of risk.
• Air conditioning and ventilation for offices and work areas.
• Rooftop solar PV for self-consumption, calculated together with the structure.

An industrial building cannot start operating on the building licence (licencia de obras) alone: the activity needs a permit of its own, the activity licence (licencia de actividad). We work with the engineer who draws up the activity project (proyecto de actividad), so that the works and the licence move forward on the same schedule.

When the building is handed over, the documentation for the works and the installations is ready, so that the activity can get started.

What the activity requires depends on what you are going to do inside: storing is not the same as manufacturing, and an inert product is not the same as a flammable one. That is why we ask for this information at the outset. Changing it halfway through usually means changing the fire protection, the ventilation or the contracted power supply.

On the industrial estates of Alicante, Elche, San Vicente del Raspeig and the Vinalopó. If your plot is somewhere else in the province of Alicante, call us and we will look into it.

If you do not have a plot yet, we can also help you assess one before you buy it: access, the estate by-laws, utility connections and what it would cost to prepare it for your building.
