Würth Canada is a leading supplier of industrial, construction, manufacturing and automotive supplies and had outgrown its current warehouse in Acheson, Alberta. Würth trusted JEN COL Construction to lead this design-build project. The project entailed doubling the warehouse’s original size and incorporating a retail showroom for visiting clients in a safe and organized environment. There were several unique connection details to this project to make this happen, as the existing building was over a decade old. The structural cross-bracing and existing insulated metal panes had to be removed along with the mechanical and electrical tie-ins.

The existing warehouse was occupied and fully operational during construction, so safety and schedule played a huge factor in completing this project. Two unique elements to this new warehouse space are a showroom on the main floor to showcase the thousands of products Würth has to offer as well as a lunchroom/training room directly above the showroom where they can now host product demonstrations and lunch-and-learns with their clients. This project also expanded the parking area and included provisions for a future addition.
