Ecoparc

Birth and Genesis of the Project

Local councillors’ wanted to create a new space to welcome companies into the region, a new space that differed from existing sites in the surrounding area.

As a result, strategic discussions involving various local economic actors began in 2001. Discussions revolved around three key requirements :

1. To create a business park that would strengthen the image of tertiary sector companies and that would increase the district council’s property portfolio. This portfolio included several specialised sites: logistics, industrial, commercial and SME/SMI
2. To ensure that the result was a model example of environmental preservation, as the site is an area of outstanding natural beauty located at the foot of the Moselle hills.
3. To move away from the traditional functional vision of complexes of this kind in which each site is dedicated to a specific activity, and instead create a living space, both for company employees and the local population.
