New Warehouse at Headquarters: Completion Nears
by Steffen Richter, 2008/09/03
In a few more weeks humedica's new warehouse, located directly across the street from the main offices, will be ready to use. Today in the construction history is Cement Day: around 200 cubic centimeters of the flowing construction material will be used to form the foundation of the new warehouse, an enormous donation from the company HeidelbergCement AG.
Not only the before mentioned 200 cubic centimeters of cement were required for the foundation to be poured, but also 30 cement trucks plus drivers, nine workers, and five hours of construction time.
The opening for the warehouse, with its many uses and possibilities, has been set for around the 20th of October. Humedica would like to take the opportunity and deeply thank everyone who helped, supported, and donated towards the project. The new warehouse is an important money-saving step into the future.
On behalf of the entire team, Jürgen Jakoby, humedica’s construction coordinator, would like to especially thank a few people, companies and institutions for their help and support.
