Swiss leader of large-format printers, swissQprint has announced the construction of new premises in the US. The new facility will enhance swissQprint’s ability to serve its customers and showcase its cutting-edge technology. The new facility will be situated on three acres (12,140sqm) within West Dundee, Illinois, strategically located approximately 10 minutes closer to Chicago O’Hare Airport than the current premises. The new building will span 24,780 sq ft (2300sq m). Key features include a 4,757 sqft (440 sqm) showroom and hospitality area, a dedicated training center for individual or group applications training, and 2,192 sqft (200sqm) dedicated to machine refurbishing and service. Also, the building will have significantly expanded warehouse and office space compared to the existing Elgin premises. Overall, the US team looks forward to a 130 percent increase in space.
Reflecting swissQprint’s commitment to environmental responsibility, approximately 400 solar panels are planned to be installed and to supply power from renewable resources. Heitman Architects Inc. designed the building, and construction will be done by The DSI Group, both of Chicago, IL. swissQprint was represented by Bespoke Commercial Real Estate. The ground-breaking ceremony for the new building took place on July 9, 2025, and the facility is scheduled to be completed by mid 2026. While leaving the Elgin base, swissQprint America will keep the Californian demo centre to cater to the Western States and Western Canada.
