In recent years, the real estate fund Prologis has launched the Park Life project with the aim of "bringing to life spaces and places where employees enjoy working, where the needs of local communities are acknowledged, and where nature can flourish once again."

This vision has materialized in three key initiatives: the Prologis Park in Romentino, the Sports Center in Piacenza, and the relaxation area at the Bologna freight village. Each project represents a perfect balance between sustainability, design, and well-being.

In Romentino, the logistics hub becomes more than just a workplace. Equipped areas, street art installations, and a food truck turn the space into a welcoming and inspiring environment for the 200 workers and the surrounding community.

Echo Labs contributed with eco-design furnishings and informational boards, working in synergy with Falegnameria K-Alma, a social enterprise that provides opportunities for people facing economic hardship. This intervention combines aesthetics, functionality, and positive social impact.

At the logistics park in Piacenza, Italy’s second Sports Center has been inaugurated, a sports facility born from the recovery and upcycling of materials from the logistics supply chain:

• 919 kg of wood
• 3 meters of banners from previous trade fairs
• 2 plexiglass panels from office spaces

These materials were transformed in our carpentry workshop into furnishings that combine functionality and aesthetics, creating a space dedicated to physical activity and well-being, with a sustainable soul.

In the Bologna freight village area, new relaxation zones offer an oasis for workers, built using approximately 400 kg of wood recovered from the logistics supply chain. Every piece of furniture has been designed to ensure both comfort and sustainability, highlighting our commitment to the circular economy.

Each Park Life project reflects a deep care for the environment and a strong focus on people’s well-being. The collaboration between Prologis and Echo Labs is a winning synergy, where creativity and responsibility come together to transform workplaces into spaces that inspire and enhance quality of life.
