Nanoramic Laboratories leases 40,000 s/f at Cummings Properties’ 10 Commerce Way

Woburn, MA Nanoramic Laboratories has leased a 40,000 s/f headquarters in Cummings Properties’ local technology cluster. The expansive new facility, located at 10 Commerce Way, will house the growing cleantech company’s executive, administrative, and R&D functions. 

Founded in 2009 out of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Nanoramic develops sustainable, high-performance lithium-ion batteries and capacitors for the automotive, aerospace, defense, and healthcare sectors. It notes that its patented nanotechnology results in a cleaner, more efficient manufacturing process and product than existing battery technology.

“The existing infrastructure and amenity-rich location at 10 Commerce Way were key considerations in Nanoramic’s decision,” said senior leasing director Rob Yacobian of Cummings Properties.

The facility, recently home to another cleantech firm, features newly constructed, specialized lab and R&D space, including dry rooms, extensive power, and multiple loading docks.

Yacobian and VP of leasing John Halsey worked with David Thomann, managing director at Cushman & Wakefield, on the lease.

“We’re delighted to welcome another up-and-coming power player to Cummings’ Woburn climate tech cluster,” said Halsey. “Thanks to our strong relationships at Cushman & Wakefield, it was short work to execute the right deal for Nanoramic.”

Among Nanoramic’s new neighbors in the city are Active Surfaces, Agrivida, Alsym Energy, Emvolon, Phoenix Tailings, SES, Type One Energy Group, and numerous other cleantech and energy firms.

The Commerce Way site is located at the intersection of I-93 and I-95, within walking distance of many cafés and restaurants as well as the newly redeveloped Woburn Village shopping center.
