"This building better represents the innovation and leading polyurethane technology that we provide," said Lutz Heidrich, General Manager of Hennecke Inc. "We even used some of the materials that our customers make in the construction process."

The new building is insulated with continuous, foil-faced polyiso panels made by Hunter Panels, a Carlisle Construction Materials company. It also contains hot water heaters manufactured by Bradford White. Both companies are Hennecke customers. Hennecke’s new headquarters features an R&D laboratory with low-pressure and high-pressure polyurethane processing machines that can be used for raw materials testing, customer trials, equipment training and demonstrations. A state-of-the-art warehouse, which incorporates automation and space-saving use of vertical lift modules (VLM) holds Hennecke’s North American parts inventory. In the spacious office area, conference and engineering zones were designed to foster communication and collaboration. The North American headquarters is one of many Hennecke GROUP locations worldwide. Besides its corporate headquarters in Germany, the Hennecke GROUP operates facilities in China, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand.
