What We Build - Manufacturing Facilities
Manufacturing Facilities
When you build manufacturing facilities, you must be concerned with the critical needs regarding product flow, shipping and receiving access, work-in-progress, storage, equipment, utility requirements and more. The hundreds of details that are essential to the long-term success of your investment must be dealt with up front, well before you start building.
When you work with experts who have experience and foresight, and who use proven technology and sound engineering design principles in the planning process, your building will meet your demands both now and in the future. Nailing the details means anticipating and filling such needs as:
- Appropriate zoning for intend use
- Local building, engineering and fire department and other regulatory permit acquisition
- Public utility capacities and proximity
- Vehicle maneuverability and dock access
- Local code implications on design
- Exterior storage restriction
- Equipment screening

Owner: Long Grove Confectionery This 60,000 square foot addition to the existing facility contains Long Grove Confectionery's corporate offices, food production operations and warehouse storage. The addition perimeter is constructed of stained pre cast panels, curtain wall glazing at the two main entrances and split faced block to fill in the gap between the different roof elevations. The two story main entrance lobby, with its stained glass dome and brick wall finish, is the starting point for planned tours through the facility. The tours will move to a media room and continue through the building with views of the various chocolate production rooms. These rooms were designed to meet codes for food production and at the same time provide an aesthetically pleasing view for the tours. The corporate offices are located on the second floor mezzanine which is constructed of pre cast floor panels providing a fire rated separation between the first floor food production rooms and the office areas. 60,025 S.F.
