L’oreal New Distribution Centre
Client: Classique Landscapes
Location: Auckland
Product: Medium Grey - Hydrostone
Completion Date: June 2025
L’Oréal’s new Auckland Distribution Centre sets a national benchmark for sustainable industrial development, achieving a 6-Star Green Star rating from the New Zealand Green Building Council — a recognition reserved for projects demonstrating world-leading environmental performance.
We are proud to have contributed to this landmark facility, which stands as a significant achievement in New Zealand’s sustainable-building landscape. Designed with sustainability at its core, the distribution centre incorporates low-carbon materials, energy-efficient systems, and environmentally responsible site planning. Our permeable paving solution supports this vision, contributing to the facility’s overall performance and its successful 6-Star Green Star rating.
As part of this forward-thinking development, we supplied the Hydrostone permeable pavers in the colour Medium Grey featured throughout the central staff courtyard. This outdoor space has been created as a calm, functional area where team members can take breaks, enjoy lunch, and reset throughout the day.
Our Hydrostone permeable pavers form the foundation of the courtyard, offering a clean, modern finish that complements the centre’s architectural style while meeting the project’s sustainability goals. The medium-grey tone delivers a refined, cohesive look that enhances the shared environment.
Today, the courtyard serves as an inviting hub within the wider facility — a place for staff to relax, connect, and enjoy time outdoors. Thanks to the permeable paving system, the area remains practical and usable year-round, performing reliably even after heavy rainfall.
