CHAPPELLE MANUFACTURING CENTER

Manufacturing Facility

Located three miles from Promega’s main campus, Chappelle Manufacturing Center (CMC) provides connection to the outdoors in the design elements. This manufacturing facility produces small molecule components used in many of Promega’s products. Using nearly half of the building to support the mechanical process systems, this advanced facility design is focused on safety in its manufacturing capabilities of large, small, and kilo scale synthetic organic chemistry. With room for future expansion, this building has many sustainable features such as a double-glass wall system around the office portion of the building which is used to maximize the temperature of the interior of the building, and a rainwater reuse system for the building’s mechanical cooling and heating of water. Walking trails surround the facility leading to a bridge over a pond with an island full of native grasses and flowers. Large limestone rock slabs located near the entrance to the facility provide a remembrance of the surrounding landscape. Using a combination of real stone exterior walls, contrasting brick colors, glass windows and metal accents, this building symbolizes the modern and futuristic capabilities of molecular manufacturing.

From the Client

The Promega Chappelle Manufacturing Center is a highly complex facility using nearly half of the building to support the mechanical process systems. This advanced facility design is focused on safety in its manufacturing process. With room for future expansion, the building has many sustainable features such as a double-glass wall system around the office portion of the building which is used to maximize the temperature efficiency of the interior of the building. Onsite Kraemer Brothers management was able to keep up with the fast pace and aggressive project schedule of this project. They area a huge reason for the success of this project.
