The Swiss manufacturer of large format printers, swissQprint, has announced the construction of new premises in the USA.

This new facility for our US subsidiary is a testament to our commitment to serving our North American customers even better. swissQprint America is currently headquartered in Elgin, IL, providing sales and after-sales services, with an additional demo center located in Irvine, California.

Easy access and enhanced service
The new facility will be situated on 3 acres within West Dundee, Illinois, strategically located approximately 10 minutes closer to Chicago O'Hare airport than the current premises. Erik Norman, President of swissQprint America, explained: The heart of the new facility is the expanded showroom to feature our large format printers and applications, along with increased capacity for our applications and service teams. All of this designed so that we can deliver exceptional support and experiences for our customers.

Facility features with sustainability commitments
The new building will span 24,780 ft?. Key features include a 4,757 ft? showroom and hospitality area, a dedicated training center for individual or group applications training, and 2,192 ft? dedicated to machine refurbishing and service. Also, the building will have significantly expanded warehouse and office space compared to the existing Elgin premises. Overall, the US team looks forward to a 130% increase in space.

Reflecting swissQprints commitment to environmental responsibility, approximately 400 solar panels are planned to be installed and to supply power from renewable resources. Heitman Architects Inc. designed the building, and construction will be done by The DSI Group, both of Chicago,IL. swissQprint was represented by Bespoke Commercial Real Estate.

Timeline and outlook
