EnviroChemie expands Rossdorf HQ

Rossdorf, Germany: – Construction is now underway of an important extension to the German headquarters of water treatment specialist EnviroChemie.

Rossdorf’s mayor, Christel Sprössler, laid the foundation stone for a new office and administration building at the EnviroChemie GmbH headquarters in the town, near Darmstadt in Hesse. The ceremony in late August was attended by the company’s Management Board, staff and guests.

Continuous growth

Ms. Sprössler said she had been ‘delighted’ with the continuing growth of EnviroChemie which has found increasing markets for its plant engineering and industrial water technology in recent years, not least in Asia.

“Our steady growth is the principal reason why the company has made the decision to invest in a new building now that its premises have expanded and our new technology center and chemical production facility are now in full operation,” commented EnviroChemie spokesman, Dr. Jörg Krause.

Energy efficient

The three-storey building, with overall floor space of around 2100 m², will provide new office spaces for 85 employees. It is being constructed on a site previously occupied by the original assembly hall at Rossdorf.

The highly energy efficient new building will feature a solar-powered charging station for pedelecs, with facilities for other electric vehicles also in the pipeline.
The project commenced in July 2017 with an expected completion date set for December 2018.
