New sweeping technology and production centre at "Robert Müser
Bochum/ Dortmund, 09.06.2020
A milestone in the corporate development of BROCK Kehrtechnik GmbH, because only 13 months after the laying of the foundation stone, BROCK moves into the new company headquarters in Bochum-Werne.
In spite of the costly site remediation work at the beginning, the Harpen group of companies responsible for the project was able to hand over the property 6 weeks earlier than planned.
A new sweeping technology & production centre has been created on the approximately 46,000 m² former Robert Müser coking plant site. The approximately 15,300 m² production hall is equipped with 12 overhead crane tracks and extensive technical infrastructure for production, storage and logistics. Representative research and training rooms as well as individually designed work and office space are located in the 3-storey administration building, from which all company divisions will be controlled in future. Extensive testing of the sweeping vehicles is possible in the area of the large outdoor facilities, which also have a washing and fuel station for the fleet.
Manfred Lenhart, managing director of BROCK Kehrtechnik GmbH, is enthusiastic about the functionality and dimensions of the new production location: “As a company, you don’t come across such a large and promising opportunity for change every day. The new location finally offers us enough space and conditions to turn our expansion plans into reality. We are looking forward to returning to Bochum again and to have reliable partners at our side in the form of the construction company Goldbeck and Harpen”.
The return to Bochum is a significant step for BROCK – and a matter of the heart. The company was founded in Bochum in 1993, but moved to Witten in 2006. BROCK sees the new company headquarters in Bochum as an important contribution to the preservation of industrial culture.
BROCK Kehrtechnik GmbH was founded in Bochum in 1993 and is one of the world’s leading suppliers of compact and large sweepers as well as airport equipment for all known cleaning jobs. The company is represented internationally with sales and service locations in over 25 countries.
As an investor and project developer, the Dortmund-based Harpen Group of companies focuses on sustainable portfolio development with long-term portfolio maintenance. The Group has focused its growth and investment strategy regionally and nationwide on logistics, office and retail properties as well as commercial project developments.
