Waukesha-based Lauterbach Group plans to move to a new facility in Sussex.
Waukesha-based Lauterbach Group, a provider of printing, packaging and converting products will move its corporate headquarters from a 35,000-square-foot facility at 1450 S. West Ave., in Waukesha, to a new 55,760-square-foot facility that is under construction at W222 N5710 Miller Way in Sussex. The site is located just off of Silver Spring Drive and is next to the W.O.W. Distributing Co. Inc. headquarters. Lauterbach needs a new facility to accomodate its growth said Elaine Schnier, vice president of finance. Lauterbach has 55 employees and is planning to add 15 more during the next "couple of years," she said. Oconomowoc-based MSI General Corp. designed the facility and is managing its construction, which began recently. The project is expected to be complete in March 2009. The facility was designed to be an environmentally-friendly "green" building, using the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) system and will include high efficiency lighting, water conserving plumbing fixtures, water recycling processes and other "green" features. "Our group’s desire to have this building be environmentally friendly did not impede our architectural design, but enhanced it," said Heath Lauterbach, director of engineering and procurement for the company. "Not only does the building improve our operating efficiency, but it also provides our group members with a first class work environment."
