Construction Complete on Opus Build-to-Suit Facility for Elgin Recycling

Opus has completed construction on a 52,174-square-foot build-to-suit facility for Elgin Recycling at 58 Center Drive in Gilberts, Illinois.

The new facility, located in the Turnberry Lakes Business Park just blocks from their headquarters and one of its four Chicago-area recycling scrap yards, expands the company’s recycled electronics processing capability and improves overall operational efficiency.

Elgin Recycling is a family-owned operation that processes ferrous and non-ferrous metals, exotic alloys and electronics. The new facility includes a high-efficiency shredder and follows strict R2 data sanitization and security practices.

Elgin Recycling’s new Gilberts facility, which will be fully operational in July, sits on a 2.76-acre site and includes a 28-foot clear height, six dock doors, two drive-in doors and up to 58 vehicle parking stalls.

Opus was the design-builder on the project and worked in partnership with Architects Plus Design Studio PLLC, Structural Enginuity, Inc., and Spaceco.
