Warehouse design specifications vary around the world, by customer and by region. At ProLogis, what does not change is the company’s global commitment to maintaining the industry’s highest standards of construction quality.

ProLogis operates a global development organization that delivers both inventory and build-to-suit projects. Its professionals are among the industry’s most experienced, with high-level expertise in planning, site selection, design and program/construction management. And while ProLogis is a global company, we manage our land development, design and construction on a local basis.

Our international development program includes the following elements:

• Direct relationships with a roster of local, best-in-class industrial designers, consultants, builders and general contractors;
• Competitive bidding on every new project to ensure the best value;
• Robust design guidelines that are maintained centrally and deliver consistently high levels of quality; and,
• Local project managers who serve as primary contacts for customers on build-to-suit projects.

ProLogis distribution centers are designed to maximize the efficiency of customers’ supply chain operations. New developments incorporate industry-leading features and design-technologies, including ample clear heights, flat and superflat floors, high dock-door ratios, extensive truck courts, and trailer storage areas.

ProLogis has also developed industry-leading expertise in the area of environmental warehouse design. For additional information about the company’s efforts in this area, click on the "Sustainable Development" link at left.
