A unique and tailored solution to the future management of difficult and contaminated sites from one of the UK’s leading brownfield development specialists.
NPL Landcare provides ‘managed exits’ for blue chip clients seeking to divest themselves securely and environmentally from redundant liability sites throughout the UK and Europe.
A separate company within the NPL Group, Landcare is able to draw on the expertise and resources from the Group to compliment its activities and provide real value to clients through economies of scale.
Landcare brings a wealth of experience gained from actual completions with a number of valued clients including ICI, Astra Zeneca, Waste Recycling Group and Coats Viyella. The ability to call on in-house skills encompassing environmental management, facilities management, development planning, laboratory analysis and waste management expertise positions Landcare head and shoulders above its competitors.
The Landcare service is designed to cater for negative value or orphan sites of all sizes, where sufficient value cannot be realised through further development, the sites remain a distraction to core business and require costly management and financial provision.
By creating a ‘community’ of such sites, Landcare is able to bring substantial economies of scale for individuals in terms of future management and maintenance. Over time, inherent value can be realised to offset management costs and reduce the hand-over burden on former owner clients.
The ability to seamlessly take over the freehold ownership and immediate front-line responsibility is unique to Landcare. The service provides all of the necessary legal and environmental safeguards from point of completion to ensure that the former owner can be assured that their site has been divested and thereafter is managed positively, free from regulatory actions and without any further draw on company finance or resources.
