About the Project

Located across the street from Promega’s Kepler Center, Alan Turing Center accommodates the growing service lines of Promega, including cell manufacturing, engineering, instrument manufacturing, and a variety of customer support services departments. Originally purchased as a multi-tenant office building, Kraemer Brothers was called in to renovate and expand the existing building, and were excited for the challenge. Totaling 52,000-square-feet of renovation, Kraemer Brothers remodeled close to the entire first floor and part of the second floor to include manufacturing production laboratories, refrigerated rooms, clean rooms, instrument production, and warehousing. Existing individual offices have also been renovated to include a commons area, break-out spaces, conference rooms, a wellness room, and an open office with new carpeting, wallcoverings, fixtures, furnishings, and lighting. Two additions totaling 17,000-square-feet are used for high-bay warehousing, mechanical, and expanded instrument quality control. Swisspearl fiber cement panels, differing in tones of red and gray, were paired with large glass windows, which broadcasts a premium look to the building. Utilizing geothermal systems for heating and cooling, this building also features a water reuse system with UV-light monitoring, automatic lighting, energy-efficient fixtures, and multiple electric vehicle chargers.
