Oelheld Hosts Open House at New U.S. Headquarters
The new facility in West Dundee, Illinois, expands production and storage capacity, and features green architecture.
Oelheld recently held an open house for its new U.S. headquarters in West Dundee, Illinois. Guests included Philipp and Martin Storr, Co-Presidents; officials from the village of West Dundee; representatives from Opus, Oelheld’s general contractor, and from BMO Harris, Oelheld’s bank; and many of Oelheld’s most valuable customers, vendors and neighbors.
The “Oktoberfest-style” open house event introduced the company’s new 24,000-square-foot facility. The building increases production capacity and storage space, and also features a new R&D laboratory with a tanker unloading station. The facility was designed for future expansion to 42,000 square feet, with built-in green LED lighting with automatic on/off functionality, a sunken floor in the warehouse to contain spills, radiant heating in the office floors and other amenities.
