STOLL groundbreaking ceremony

STOLL, leading manufacturer of flat knitting machinery and one of the largest Reutlingen-based companies, will relocate the company headquarters from Stollweg 1, Reutlingen, to the industrial area of Reutlingen-Betzingen. The planned construction project is divided into two phases: in addition to the existing production buildings a development and customer center will be built.

The architects ISIN + Co. GmbH & Co. KG from Stuttgart presented the most innovative ideas during an architectural competition and accompanied this project for the planning and construction phase.

For the first construction phase of the development center, STOLL was able to commission the company Systembau Knecht Metzingen GmbH as a general contractor while the company Reiner Scha?dler Bauunternehmung GmbH will take over the foundation and structural work. With the symbolic groundbreaking ceremony on Friday, July 26, 2019, the construction of the development center will officially begin.

The development center will provide bright and modern conference rooms to hold about 70 employees.

In the second phase, a modern customer center will be built on Adolf-Kolping-Street: an efficient building with conference rooms to hold about 100 employees. This building also offers space for the STOLL showroom and training center.

STOLL is setting a standard with this construction project. As a result of the relocation, development, production and administration will be combined into one location after completion of the two buildings. The STOLL technology and innovation, proven for more than 145 years, will take us into a new era with a new headquarter base.
