Valeo Thermal Systems

KIRCO MANIX constructed Valeo’s 120,000 square foot research and development North American headquarters facility for automotive engine cooling and A/C systems.

The progressive building design includes a full height exterior glass curtain wall system with matching interior glass partitions allowing a full view between the two story office and lab areas.

The labs consist of multiple vibration shakers on a reaction mass, vehicle environmental chambers, a full anechoic sound chamber, and chemical/corrosion metal laboratories.

Webasto Americas Headquarters

KIRCO MANIX was selected by Webasto to renovate and expand an existing building into its new Americas headquarters. The $40 million project consolidated employees from three locations while supporting the company’s growing engineering and testing needs through a 40,000-square-foot addition that included testing labs, office space, and a dining area.
