The Baltic Cargo Hub covers 6,895m2 and is designed to support demand for cargo services at Riga Airport.
It is located directly at the cargo apron and equipped with advanced semi-automatic material handling systems for the smooth flow of cargo.
The facility has temperature-controlled rooms for cargo such as pharmaceuticals and dedicated areas for dangerous goods, live animals and valuables.
Integrated food and veterinary facilities and a customs checkpoint will streamline cargo operations.
During construction, airBaltic showed its commitment to sustainability by utilising Building Information Modelling (BIM) throughout the process, and the facility meets BREEAM sustainability standards.
UPB Nams managed the construction work, Ozola un Bula provided architectural designs and BLV Advisory Group oversaw technical supervision.
