Project "EGGER Production Hall" in Lexington

08.08.2019

In September 2018, the Austrian manufacturer of wood-based products, EGGER, began building a new production facility for wood-based products in Lexington, North Carolina, USA. The plant is the company's first production facility in North America. The patented and worldwide proven joint system HESS LIMITLESS has been used. The segmentation of the elements (up to 30m in overall length) at our factory facilitated cost-effective and flexible transport in standardised sea freight containers from Germany to North America. At the construction site, 61 joints were then executed using the HESS LIMITLESS joint system.

Overview

multi-storey timber buildings

In 2016, the country's first commercial wooden multistorey office building was built in Sydney in the district of Barangaroo South. This project marks not only a milestone in the history of HESS TIMBER but also in the Australian construction industry. The foundation for a trend-setting and novel way of building in the urban context was created.
