POLAND Well renewal for Spark C

Green projects
The fifth floor of the Spark C building in Warsaw, which houses the head office of the Skanska’s commercial development business unit in the CEE region, has just been obtained a renewal of its Well Commercial Interior certificate. This is the first such recertification in Poland and the CEE region, and the second in Europe.

The building was first awarded the certificate when it came into use in 2019, when it was also the first building in Poland to receive Well Core & Shell Certification, which it achieved at the ‘Gold’ level.

This certification system focuses on the well-being of users of commercial space, including offices. The renewal means that the standards for air and water quality in the building and the quality of the internal environment are constantly maintained at the highest level, taking into account 100 different parameters, such as access to fresh, clean air, good water quality, optimal interior lighting, temperature and acoustics.

The recertification of our office space in the Spark C building is not only a reason to be proud, but above all it is confirmation that at Skanska we put our employees and their needs first. This is what guides us in creating the workspace used by our teams, but also in cooperation with our tenants, and is in aligned with our social and ​​environmental responsibility and ethics. ESG is one of the pillars of our business strategy.
Anna Marciniak, the HR and administration director of Skanska’s commercial development business unit in the CEE region

The Spark complex has particle filters, adiabatic humidifiers and ventilation systems that provide up to 30 pct more fresh, clean air than required by office standards. The office also has as many as 850 plants that provide more oxygen and help address the need for human contact with nature. The water in the Spark building is tested for the presence of several dozen chemical compounds. Intelligent lighting has been installed that harmonizes with the human circadian cycle, while employees also have adequate access to daylight. The interiors of the Spark feature murals by Olka Osadzińska and designer details prepared by the Kolektyf group.

The 12,000 sqm Spark C forms part of the Spark office complex being developed by Skanska at the junction of ul. Okopowa and al. Solidarności in Warsaw’s Wola district, which will eventually comprise 58,300 sqm in three buildings. Spark C was sold to KGAL Investment Management prior to completion and Spark B to Stena Fastigheter.
