Glasgow’s thriving innovation ecosystem has reached a new milestone with the completion of the Viridis Building — a purpose-built laboratory and research facility developed by Speyroc at the West of Scotland Science Park.
Occupying the final available plot on the Park’s Todd Campus, the 20,450 sq ft building has been designed specifically to meet the growing demand for high-quality, adaptable laboratory space across the technology and life sciences sectors.
Designed for Innovation and Flexibility
Viridis offers fully flexible accommodation, engineered to support bespoke laboratory fit-outs and long-term adaptability. Its key features include:
A Commitment to Sustainability
Sustainability has been a priority from day one. The building is equipped with a mono-pitch roof fitted with photovoltaic panels, capable of generating more energy than required, contributing to a carbon-neutral EPC rating. A ground source heat pump with a coefficient of performance (COP) of 4.5 supports energy-efficient heating, while naturally ventilated first-floor offices eliminate the need for air conditioning.
Purpose-Built for Progress
Unlike typical office conversions, the Viridis Building has been conceived from the ground up to serve the specific needs of lab-based companies and research-driven organisations. Its infrastructure and layout are tailored to support regulatory compliance, specialist users, and evolving technological demands.
A Growing Innovation Hub
West of Scotland Science Park, under Speyroc’s stewardship, continues to flourish as one of the region’s premier destinations for scientific innovation. All buildings now carry ‘A’ rated EPCs, and the Park is home to a dynamic mix of start-ups, university spin-outs, and global firms. Strong connections with Glasgow’s universities provide ongoing access to cutting-edge research and talent.
Speyroc also offers flexible fit-out packages and financing options, helping occupiers scale their operations with ease.
