New build by Wihlborgs for BPC Instruments in Lund
At the Tomaten 1 property in Lund’s Hasslanda business district, Wihlborgs will construct a 3,600 square metre warehouse, production and office building for the growing Lund company BPC Instruments.
The lease term is 15 years, with occupancy scheduled for summer 2026.
BPC Instruments is a technology company that develops and offers analytical instruments for bioenergy and environmental biotechnology. The company has its headquarters in Lund and currently leases premises of 1,200 square metres from Wihlborgs at Ideon, but needs more space to scale up its operations.
The building is highly flexible to allow for future uses and equipped with modern technical installations that enable continuous optimisation of operations. The aim is to achieve Miljöbyggnad gold level certification.
Hasslanda is the new business district in Lund that has emerged in conjunction with the construction of the new junction for the E22 motorway, and is located south of Gastelyckan and north of the municipal border with Staffanstorp. Wihlborgs’ Tomaten 1 property is at the far south of the area and is easily accessible directly from the E22. Here, BPC Instruments will neighbour the contract manufacturer Inpac, whose facility Wihlborgs completed in spring 2024. At the nearby property, Stora Råby 32:22, Wihlborgs is currently constructing a facility for the electronics company NOTE Lund.
Wihlborgs is investing SEK 79 million, including the land value of SEK 11 million.
“We are grateful for our continued partnership with Wihlborgs, which enables our expansion. Their ability to understand and meet our needs means we can look forward to moving into premises that are well suited to our operations going forward,” says Jing Liu, CEO of BPC Instruments.
“We are pleased to deepen our partnership with BPC Instruments and that the company is continuing its development in Lund. The new facilities show that there is substantial demand for modern production facilities in combination with offices in Lund. It is positive both for us and for the city as a whole that we can meet this demand. This is also in line with Wihlborgs’ cluster strategy, which entails grouping several properties in the same geographical area. This enables us to offer efficient property management as well as opportunities for tenants with new needs,” says Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs.
