Aeroterm unveils new energy-efficient cargo facility at SMF

Aerotem, developer of on-airport cargo facilities, has competed a new 40,500 sq ft cargo facility at Sacramento International Airport (SMF).

The energy-efficient facility includes features such as daylighting, insulated metal wall panels, LED warehouse lights with occupancy sensors, low-flow water fixtures, and high-volume large diameter fans.

It also features 17 landside dock doors, making it suitable for airside to landside cargo operations.

Greg Russell, vice president of investments at Aeroterm, commented: “We are proud to serve as the developer of this exciting and high-profile cargo infrastructure project which enhances the airport’s air cargo sector with improved cargo processing efficiency.

“From groundbreak to completion, we were able to deliver this project to market in six months, which is the result of true teamwork and collaboration between Aeroterm, the Sacramento County Department of Airports and the air cargo community.”

David Rose, managing director and senior fund manager at Aeroterm, added: “Our development and construction teams worked with excellent partners at the airport and within the community to navigate these unprecedented times to deliver a sustainable, first class facility that supports the needs of the Sacramento community.

“The team’s nimble use of on-site advanced technology with more thoughtful support from our local contractors allowed us to limit headcount at the site, in turn enabling us to prioritize worker health and safety while delivering the project on time and under budget, which is a great testament to our partnership with the Sacramento County Department of Airports.”
