Construction Launches on Bystronic’s North American HQ
Construction of a 163,350-square-foot North American headquarters for Swiss-based Bystronic Inc. has been completed in Hoffman Estates, IL. The “Experience Center” facility at 2200 Central Rd. was designed and conceptualized by Heitman Architects and constructed by McShane Construction Company.
Bystronic is an international high-tech manufacturer of high-quality machines and systems for processing sheet metal and other flat materials for laser cutting, bending and automation.
The facility combines office, product, warehouse and showroom space on an 11.2-acre site off the I-90 Corridor. Unique design and functional considerations were required because of the specialized nature of the large and heavy equipment needed for company operations.
“The design and functionality of the HQ facility is in keeping with the high-tech nature of the company,” said Todd Kiehn, senior project manager of Heitman Architects. He added that adaptability to Bystronic’s changing needs was considered equally important.
