SCHILLING ENGINEERING expands building company fit for the future
SCHILLING ENGINEERING GmbH in Wutöschingen-Horheim is one of the leading specialists in cleanroom technology. Günther Schilling’s company has long since made a name for itself on the international markets and continues to expand. The company has set another milestone with the expansion of its operations on a total area of 12,000 square meters and is looking to the future.
The company’s steady growth is based on a forward-looking concept. SCHILLING ENGINEERING offers an extensive and innovative product range. The company is flexible. “We can adapt quickly to the market,” says Günther Schilling. Always one step ahead is the motto. The order books are full and turnover is rising steadily. Over time, the company was literally bursting at the seams. That is why the decision was made to expand the company. The expansion of resources was urgently needed to make the company fit for the future. The company invested around five million euros in the conversion and new building.
The construction project was completed in almost record time. After the ground-breaking ceremony in the fall of 2015, it only took around six months to move into the new premises. Architects, the Goldbeck company and local craftsmen worked quickly until the new “jewel box” was finished. Günther Schilling is a little proud: “And all while the business continues to operate.”
A modern, functional building complex has been created on the company premises. The existing building was completely hollowed out and redesigned. The new building was elegantly merged with a transition.
The expansion has created 1200 square meters of new office space. The offices now cover a total area of 1500 square meters. The production hall and service center were expanded by 2000 to 3300 square meters. The company is equipped with everything a modern, innovative business needs. This includes a training center and modern offices. They are equipped with the latest technology. Ergonomically optimized workstations and additional creative areas have been created. A canteen with a so-called chill-out lounge has been set up in the old wing. This is where employees can recharge their batteries, relax and gather to create new ideas. Günther Schilling considers a lively exchange of thoughts and ideas and a good working atmosphere to be extremely important.
The building complex is also designed to meet modern energy requirements. Thanks to the photovoltaic system installed on the roof, the company is completely self-sufficient in its electrical supply. The company is also equipped with modern air conditioning technology with a heat pump and energy recovery. In line with the motto “we live green”, the company intends to make greater use of hybrid and electric vehicles. Two of its own electric charging stations have been set up for this purpose.
