Package delivered: Purolator’s new $330M national hub unveiled
Purolator has officially opened a new national sortation facility in Toronto, tripling the capacity of the former facility in Ontario and increasing its network capabilities through new automation, advanced scanning and sorting technology.
The $330-million, 443,084-square-foot National Hub is strategically located on Humber College Boulevard in Etobicoke near several major highways including Highways 401, 407, 427 and 27, said Mike Staples, director of national hub projects with Purolator.
Pomerleau is the general contractor on the project and Turner & Townsend is the project manager. Körber (formerly Siemens Logistics LLC) supplied the material handling equipment. Ground was broken on the new hub, located on a 62 acre site in May 2020, during the first wave of the pandemic.
When operating at full capacity, the new hub will process up to 70,000 parcels per hour, indicates a release, adding the new hub also includes innovative technology that can unload a trailer in under 10 minutes or up to 12,000 parcels per hour, 10 times the amount possible through manual efforts.
Purolator also incorporated elements for employee health and safety including guard rails, sensors and ergonomic equipment to reduce the risk of physical injury. Amenities for the facility’s over 1,000 employees also include a dedicated multi-faith space, a 6,500-square-foot cafeteria and patio, a wellness room and a training centre that is double the size of the previous location. Natural light has also been incorporated.
The facility also includes a wastewater reclamation system, a white roof that can hold three million litres of water and a grey water reclamation system that will hold a million litres.
Project Manager: Turner & Townsend
General Contractor: Pomerleau
Project Value: $330 million
