Swiss automation company Endress+Hauser broke ground this week on a $50.9 million expansion of its U.S. headquarters in Greenwood.
The 106,000-square-foot addition will house commercial office and light industry space for the company’s projects, human resources and legal departments. It will also feature a design and innovation studio with 2,500-square feet dedicated to STEM activities for students in grades K-8. The studio will also feature a smart classroom, a makerspace and other industry-quality technology with 3D printing, robotics and other engineering tools available to high schoolers.
“We are thrilled to expand our roots and footprint in Greenwood, the community we have been a part of for almost 50 years,” Endress+Hauser USA General Manager Todd Lucey said in a news release. “Our continued investments showcase our commitment to Johnson County, our dedicated employees and our valued customers.”
Endress+Hauser is working with its sales and service partner, George E. Booth Co. on the project. Both companies say they plan to add a combined 95 jobs over the next decade. About 190 employees total will be located in the new building in the next 10 years with 50 of those relocated from existing company space.
“We are excited to partner with our principal, Endress+Hauser, to bring both teams under one roof on their Greenwood campus,” George E. Booth Co. President Scott Young said in the news release. “Being strategically located in Greenwood will bring us closer to our partners which will drive growth and collaboration to implement improved solutions for our customers.”
Indianapolis architects Browning Day designed the building with landscape architecture and civil design services provided by Rundell Ernstberger Associates. Meyer Najem will lead construction with V3 providing civil engineering services, Applied Engineering Services offering electrical and mechanical engineering and Rink Roberts & Petrie contributing structural engineering to the project.
Construction is expected to finish by summer 2025. Inside INdiana Business’ Gerry Dick talked to Endress+Hauser’s Todd Lucey in February. You can watch the interview by clicking here.
