Wacker Regional Headquarters

High-spec R&D and secure operations, delivered with open-book transparency.

KIRCO and KIRCO MANIX developed and constructed Wacker Chemical’s $70 million, 140,000 SF North American Innovation Center and Regional Headquarters. The new facility features world-class labs, a full-service cafeteria, a 24/7 fitness center, and open collaborative workspaces.

The campus serves as the hub of leadership and innovation for Wacker’s North and Central Americas region, housing over 200 team members including senior leadership, chemists, and technical experts, with capacity for over 300 employees.

“KIRCO MANIX proved throughout the process to be a trusted and reliable partner. Even in the face of numerous challenges, including the pandemic and supply chain disruptions, we are able today to celebrate the journey and proudly open our building with excitement and positivity.”

— Greg Brabec, Director of Government Affairs and Special Projects for Wacker
