Choosing a Small Industrial Unit or Workshop to Rent

According to fire safety requirements, the maximum occupancy for an industrial space or workshop is around 55ft² per person, but you will need extra space for the machinery they will be operating. This means that you may actually need 100ft² or more per person.

Think about what your business needs to operate efficiently and safely. You might require:

• Big double doors for plenty of space and natural light
• Roller shutter doors to save on space and offer additional security
• Plenty of space for big machinery or free-standing mechanical tools
• A location that is convenient for you, your staff and your customers
• Additional on-site storage space
• A network of other businesses on-site offering support

Plan for the Future

Trying to find a new place of work can be stressful, so avoid the hassle of having to keep relocating as your business expands. The Wrest Park Enterprise campus offers an excellent range of warehouses and business units that can accommodate a variety of business requirements.

Warehouses

Ranging from 1,100ft² to 24,000ft², each building has been recently refurbished and most buildings have an office and W.C. facilities.

The telecommunications infrastructure is connected to each unit – tenants simply need to confirm their requirements and we can supply fibre broadband and VoIP telephony (charges will apply).

Workshops

Many tradesmen, such as builders, plumbers, carpenters, electricians, etc. need a unit that can work as both storage and workshop space and this sort of space is in short supply. We have a series of 8 workshops that are ideal for such a business. Each unit is either 1,320ft² or 880ft² and has:

• Electric roller shutter
• Light & power via a pre-paid token meter
• Good natural light
• Access for loading/unloading
• Personnel door
• Parking area

Smaller Units

Businesses ebb and flow, and- sometimes you just need a little extra workspace or storage without having to commit to moving to larger premises or a long term contract. A simple low-cost solution can be to take an ancillary storage unit on a flexible contract that allows you access as and when you need it. Ideal for storing archive files, product, equipment, tools, surplus stock or samples, etc., each unit is either 440ft² or 220ft² and has:

• Loading/unloading access
• No time restrictions for access
