1.4-Million-Square-Foot Medline Distribution Center Completed in Grayslake
Design firm Ware Malcomb and general contractor Alston Construction Company have completed a new Medline distribution center located in Grayslake, IL. Ware Malcomb provided architecture, interior design and branding services for the 1,426,800-square-foot facility, which is estimated to be the largest medical-grade distribution center in the U.S. The final phase of development, a 2,700-square-foot office build-out within the facility, was recently completed for Medline’s Sterile Procedure Trays Division.
The new facility includes a main office area, receiving and shipping offices, temperature control room and a white box area for future expansion. Employee-focused amenities include break areas with billiards, foosball tables, specialty furniture, and collaboration space.
“Medline’s project is a tremendous success story, as it brings new jobs to the Grayslake area and fosters a work atmosphere that embodies our client’s employee-focused culture,” said Cameron Trefry, principal for Ware Malcomb’s Oak Brook, Chicago, Columbus and Washington, DC offices.
