"We are extremely proud of our newest and the largest of UTi's five logistics centers in Taiwan," said Brian Dangerfield, UTi president for the Asia Pacific region. "The 42,900-square-meter (461,000 square feet) facility features a 'green' building design including an LED lighting system and rain water collection and recycling which meets UTi's 'ThinkGreen' initiative."

The secure facility has on-site security guards, CCTV and electronic surveillance, perimeter fencing and an electronic sprinkler system. The center has 101 double dock doors where clients' goods are secured from environmental effects. The facility is located 20  minutes from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport and 500 meters from Taiwan's Highway 2 for easy access to the island's main distribution channels.

"Besides the basic 3PL warehousing, distribution and inventory management capabilities that UTi offers, this facility is adaptable to the requirements of several industries such as pharmaceutical, healthcare, and wine and spirits which may require temperature-controlled environments," said Dangerfield.
