Singapore's industrial land is split into B1 (light, clean) and B2 (heavier) zones. Generations @ Tannery is a B1 development, which shapes both who can occupy it and where it can sit.
B1 (Business 1) zoning, defined by the Urban Redevelopment Authority, covers light and clean industrial uses: light manufacturing, e-commerce fulfilment, IT and software development, R&D laboratories, media production, precision engineering and ancillary office use. B1 activities must not generate significant pollution or require a nuisance buffer of more than 50 metres.
B2 (Business 2) covers heavier industries that produce more noise, vibration or pollution — such as metal fabrication, car workshops and heavier manufacturing — and requires a nuisance buffer of more than 50 metres. That buffer requirement is precisely why B2 sites tend to sit further from residential areas.
Because B1 uses are compatible with a 50-metre-or-less buffer, B1 buildings can be located close to residential and mixed-use zones — exactly the city-fringe position at 71 Tannery Lane. That versatility makes B1 well suited to technology companies, creative studios, logistics operators and professional-services firms seeking an owned workspace. See the permitted-use context on the project details page.
