So Cal Industrial Development Recognized for Sustainable Design

ONTARIO, Calif. - Rezul -- The Hub @ Ontario ("The Hub"), a 4.2 million-square-foot industrial development of Affinius Capital, in joint venture with McDonald Property Group and Premier Design + Build Group, has been recognized by the Tilt-Up Concrete Association ("TCA") with its inaugural 2025 Excellence in Sustainability + Resilience Award for its innovative design and use of sustainable materials.

TCA, a global nonprofit trade organization which created this awards program to recognize leadership in sustainable tilt-up design and construction, singled out The Hub as a "powerful precedent for what excellence can look like and a new standard for environmental responsibility, resilience and innovation in our industry."

The Hub is located on a 200-acre site immediately adjacent to the Ontario International Airport in Southern California's Inland Empire, the largest industrial market in the United States. It is one of the first large-scale developments in Southern California to incorporate an innovative carbon-reduction system developed by Total Integrated Panel Systems ("TIPS").  Different than traditional concrete tilt-up wall construction, the TIPS technology replaces a 4" layer of concrete and rebar with a specialized wire mesh truss system and EPS foam core, reducing concrete materials by 40% on average. In addition to reducing embodied carbon by 35%, the TIPS panels exceed the concrete durability and strengths of conventional concrete used in today's logistics facilities.  Other sustainable elements incorporated into the design include rooftop solar arrays, drought-tolerant landscaping and low-flow water systems.

"The reduction of materials and labor achieved by using TIPS means that walls are stronger, lighter and less expensive than traditional, methods," said TIPS Senior Vice President Dr. Marcus Blackburn.  "Advanced technology and sustainable practices not only benefit the environment but also deliver substantial economic value to our partners."

The Hub is part of Affinius Capital's 81 million-square-foot industrial/logistics portfolio with assets located in the United States, Europe and Mexico.

"This construction strategy is one of our most significant accomplishments to date. We continue to challenge ourselves to embrace new techniques in responsible development and achieve better overall carbon reduction at cost neutrality, without compromising asset quality or the integrity of the investment," shared Lange Allen, Senior Managing Director, Head of North American Industrial Development for Affinius Capital.

With construction completed on the first four buildings, work has started on the second phase, which is expected to be completed in 2027.   At build out, The Hub will feature nine state-of-the art industrial facilities ranging in size from 204,000 – 926,000 square feet with clear heights up to 40 feet.
