Brownfields Gestion: the only real estate operator with negative land artificialization, transforming urban brownfields since 2006.
Brownfields Gestion works alongside municipalities, institutional investors, development partners, and local communities. Their feedback reflects the depth of our commitment to delivering projects that are technically complex, environmentally responsible, and genuinely transformative for the territories we operate in. Here is what some of our key partners have shared about working with us.
"We approached Brownfields to reconvert a former industrial zone on the edge of our city centre that had been derelict for over fifteen years. Their team handled the entire process — environmental audit, decontamination, urban planning, and construction — with a level of rigour and transparency we had not encountered before. The resulting mixed-use district has already attracted three major employers and over 400 new residents. The transformation exceeded everything we had hoped for."

"As an institutional investor, we were looking for a real estate partner whose environmental commitments were genuinely embedded in their operations, not just in their marketing materials. Brownfields' carbon assessment process and their policy of building exclusively on brownfields gave us real confidence. The financial returns on our co-investment in the Cergy programme have been solid, and the reporting on environmental outcomes has been thorough and credible."

"Our university needed affordable student housing urgently, and The Crown project in Ixelles delivered exactly what was promised — 198 units at accessible rents, in excellent condition, within walking distance of both campuses. Brownfields managed a genuinely complex site, including asbestos removal and structural rehabilitation, without any delay to the delivery schedule. We are already in discussion about a second collaboration."

"I was the local elected representative responsible for overseeing the Colombes hypermarket reconversion, which was one of the most technically challenging urban projects our municipality had ever attempted — a full demolition and reconstruction without interrupting retail activity. Brownfields navigated every stage with professionalism, kept the local community informed throughout, and delivered a new neighbourhood that our residents are genuinely proud of. I would not hesitate to work with them again."

"We partnered with Brownfields on a large-format logistics and office site conversion near Marseille. What stood out was their willingness to engage deeply with the soil contamination issues that had deterred every other developer — they treated remediation as a strength, not an obstacle. The project was completed on budget and the quality of the business park environment has attracted tenants of a calibre we did not expect for a converted brownfield site."
