Development has started on Toll Group’s newest medical facility inside the Melbourne Airport Business Park, which will give advancement in pharmaceutical capacity in Victoria.
Melbourne Airport Chief of Property Jai McDermott says the $20 million office will ultimately turn into Toll’s biggest medical services site in Victoria.
“We’re pleased to support Toll’s expansion into medical warehousing by providing the space and bespoke facility required to deliver patient critical products to Victorians,” McDermott said.
10,000 square-meter temperature-controlled scene will warehouse and distribute clinical supplies including biotech drugs, immunisations, anti-venoms, clinical gadgets, and over-the-counter medications.
“Once complete, the warehouse will become Melbourne Airport’s first five-star green star building. It is another important step on our path to net-zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025,” said McDermott.
President of Toll Government and Defence, Perry Singh, says Toll is eager to extend its medical services tasks in Australia through the new air terminal office.
Toll Healthcare will rent the new office from Melbourne Airport for at least 10 years, with the site due to open in 2024.
“The facility has been custom-designed to support the unique requirements of our customers and will store and manage critical pharmaceuticals and products including medical devices, vaccines, and consumer health products,” Singh said.
The assembled facility is the air terminal’s initial five-star green structure, highlighting solar panels and charging frameworks for both electric vehicles and trucks.
