Industrial architecture for future growth

eepos GmbH, Wiehl, Germany

The company’s previous location was too small for future growth due to its historic building and property structure. Therefore, eepos planned to relocate production, logistics, and administrative areas to a new property. For the larger and more modern redesign, eepos relied on the expertise of Dr. Schönheit + Partner.

Tasks and objectives

With its new, future-proof factory, eepos not only wants to ensure future growth and competitiveness. The company is also positioning itself as an attractive employer with modern structures and workplaces in the competition for the best talent in the region.

In the factory structure plan on the “greenfield” site, the first step was to develop an urban master plan for a target property of around 30,000 m² that would harmoniously integrate the factory into the property. The factory requirements were translated into a comprehensive architectural concept. As is customary at Dr. Schönheit + Partner, the planning was carried out 'from the inside out' and also included the optimization of the administrative and office space.

Approach and solutions

Our team at Dr. Schönheit + Partner designed the new factory with a focus on productivity and structure. Clear pathways, directed material flows, and modular production structures maximize added value across an area of around 8,000 m². For future growth, expansion areas of more than 7,500 m² and convertible structures are also planned, ensuring a high degree of flexibility and cost-effectiveness.

The factory’s architecture places great emphasis on communication and openness. Harmonious and sophisticated industrial architecture with clear signage and an open office structure promotes interaction and conveys the modern eepos working environment to employees, customers, and visitors alike.
