糖心VlogConstructions is thrilled to announce the completion of a 38,000m² three-unit development in Clayton for ESR Australia.
Having completed Unit 1 mid-2022, an 18,300m² facility for leading natural beauty and wellness business BWX, the team have delivered Unit 2 and Unit 3, which are tenanted by Toys “R” Us.
Unit 2 has a total built area of 3,450m² and is inclusive of 3,000m² of warehousing and a double-storey office of 450m².
Unit 3 has 15,800m² of area and includes 1,000m² of office, 11,600m² of warehouse space as well as a 3,200m² toy experience centre with 14-metre-high walls.
These two new facilities will enable Toys “R” Us to meet their growing e-commerce demand, improve efficiencies and offer a high level of customer service.
The toy experience centre offers a dynamic and innovative play environment allowing children and their families to interact with a large assortment of merchandise.
The multi-use centre is designed to cater for a range of different children’s entertainment events and parties. There is also retail facilities in place with toys available for purchase.
Automation is a key aspect of the warehouse with a fleet of robots retrieving products for e-commerce orders and sales from the toy experience centre.
For these robots to travel successfully, there was careful consideration paid to the flooring. Seamless expansion joints, floor flatness and a specialised slab finish to ensure the robots can read the barcodes on the ground, were all essential to deliver a robot-ready floor.
Designed to achieve a 5 Star Green Star rating, the Toys “R” Us buildings have been built sustainably with energy-efficient operations in place such as a 99KW solar system.
Thank you to ESR Australia for the opportunity to deliver this project.
