Wilton Centre

Lab space to rent in North Yorkshire

The base for biomanufacturing

Set within a 75-acre, beautifully landscaped park, and home to the CPI and Fujifilm, the expansive site is adjacent to Wilton International and sits in the heart of the North-East of England Process Industry Cluster.

The Wilton Centre has contemporary office and lab space available for rent in North Yorkshire, ideally suited to growing businesses seeking to harness the region’s legacy knowledge to create sustainable manufacturing practices for the biotech products of the future, as well as circular economy solutions for the petrochemical products of the past.

For the heroes trailblazing reduce, reuse and recycle

Take on our office and lab space to rent in North Yorkshire with just one month’s notice, with the option to scale back with only three months’ notice.

Layout not quite working? With our in-house engineers, you can get the essentials like benching, data points and storage just right for your team and the way it works.

Invitation-only pitching competitions, investment opportunity roundups, unique collaborations and trade visits are regular features for Pioneer Group based start-ups. It’s what being a part of our business community is all about.

We can demineralise mains water with our on-site water plant, cutting out the middleman with the associated costs and carbon footprint.

A not-so-secret room off the reception, our large, open plan coworking space is perfect to drop in, plug in and get a few quiet hours to yourself. Placed around the coworking area are our mini-meeting pods; with noise-reducing walls and USB plugs they’re an ideal spot for collaboration and a catch up with colleagues.

The HVMC at Wilton Centre is one of seven across the UK, offering access to world-class equipment, expertise and collaborative opportunities. Together with the CPI, we work with manufacturing businesses of all sizes to help turn ideas into commercial applications by addressing the gap between technology concepts and commercialisation.

From competitions to complimentary yoga, there are plenty of opportunities to connect with the Wilton Centre tenants community. Join us for regular industry events, where leaders share their thoughts, experiences and lessons learnt over a beer (or three!).

With family-size tables, comfy seating, and a relaxed atmosphere, the Kitchen is the perfect spot to take a break from work. The Mini Kitchen also has a seasonal menu made fresh in-house with locally sourced ingredients.

Our state-of-the-art facility is exclusively for the use of teams based at the Wilton Centre. The gym features over 30 exercise stations with the latest cardiovascular and resistance equipment, and a packed schedule of exercise classes, all designed to offer easy access to first-rate fitness facilities.

Just ten minutes from the coast and 15 minutes from the North York Moors National Park, organising team days out is a breeze.

Teesside is wedged between County Durham and North Yorkshire following the curving path of the River Tees as it winds its way west from the northeast coast towards the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Surrounded by national parks and picturesque beaches, the Tees Valley is a picturesque setting for walking, cycling, riding or sailing. The largest city on Teesside is Middlesbrough, which was once the focal point of Teesside’s heavy industry. It is quickly becoming a success story of regeneration, in part, because of the growing credentials of Teesside University. The docklands have been transformed with waterfront restaurants, while Baker Street and Bedford Street are now lined with micropubs and vintage shops.

Teesside is attracting more and more businesses and university spin-outs from London and the South East, partially because of the lower cost of living.
