BC Partners Real Estate (“BCPRE”) today announces the exit of a laboratory and R&D campus in Warstein, Germany fully let to Infineon Technologies AG (“Infineon”). After the successful disposition of Novartis-let 764 Grand Via de les Corts Catalanes in Barcelona in December, this marks the second successful realisation from BC Partners European Real Estate I (“BCPERE I”).

The transaction – which represents a high-double digit million valuation – comprises the sale of an existing building in Q2 2026 and a newly developed facility upon completion in Q3 2026 to a large US investor. The assets are fully pre-let to Infineon under long-term 25-year, CPI-linked, triple-net leases commencing upon practical completion of the new build development.

The project was developed and managed with the support of GARBE Institutional Capital and Garbe Immobilien-Projekte (together “GARBE”) – with BCPRE providing equity and operational expertise, and GARBE delivering a comprehensive set of services, including sourcing the deal, negotiating the lease agreement and asset and development management to the investment.

Since acquisition in November 2023, BCPRE and GARBE achieved a BREEAM Excellent certification for the existing building, while the new build is targeting the same certification upon delivery, with all pre-requisites successfully completed to date. The new development incorporates timber hybrid construction, rooftop solar panels and electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and is designed to be CO₂-neutral in use, in line with Infineon’s corporate ESG strategy. The development doubles the campus’ total space to approximately 21,000 sqm and supports Infineon’s continued expansion at its mission-critical Warstein site.

Infineon is a DAX40-listed global semiconductor leader with more than 57,000 employees worldwide and a market capitalisation of approximately €55 billion.

BCPRE and GARBE were advised by Freshfields, EY, JLL and BNP Paribas Real Estate.
