Since mid-November, construction is in full swing next to DR-WALTER’s headquarters. The new building will make room for even more employees and, as a result, promote the company’s continued growth.
40 new jobs will be created on an area of approx. 1,300 m². The three-story building will be accessible from the main building through a glass tunnel at the site of the former terrace. The façade of the extension will harmonize perfectly with the already existing office building. 32 additional parking spaces will also be provided, increasing the total amount to 62 parking spaces.

To help strengthen the local economy, DR-WALTER assigned all works only to building companies and craftsmen from the region. Planning and construction management will be carried out by Merten Architekten.
As with the existing building, the design was by Hamburg architects Schenk Fleischhaker.
DR-WALTER attaches great importance to the use of high quality, sustainable building materials. The building’s envelope will be insulated by lining the walls with sand-lime brick as part of a highly insulating and ecological Multipor thermal insulation composite system. A solar plant (with an output of 15 kW) and an air-to-air heat pump will provide a pleasant climate. This way, we are able to achieve a KfW 70 energy efficiency standard.
