Boxengo has launched a major investment initiative in the self-storage sector in Italy, a program aimed at redeveloping existing properties and transforming them into green, technologically advanced spaces designed to provide a functional service to local communities.
Bestmind has supported the client since the preliminary stages of the project, managing the technical due diligence of the various assets, procurement for the design activities, execution project management, and coordination of the entire tender and contractor selection process, while also acting as Project Construction Manager during the construction phase.
The company’s service ensured design consistency and strong synergy among all stakeholders involved.
All buildings are equipped with an integrated, state-of-the-art control and security system featuring intelligent video surveillance and automated badge-access technology, ensuring high standards of safety and traceability for users.
The assets are also geared towards obtaining LEED Platinum certification, the highest level of the international sustainability protocol, confirming a strong commitment to energy efficiency, environmental impact reduction, and user well-being.
