Flexicon, Bethlehem, PA, currently celebrating its 40th anniversary, reports that construction of the 8500m2 building envelope which will double the size of its US headquarters (see EBS News for week of 15 September 2014) has been successfully concluded. “With walls, roof and floor now complete, and mechanical systems underway, we are on track to fully occupy the space by March of this year,” said the company’s president David Gill.
 

In addition to a major expansion of production and assembly facilities, office space is also being greatly increased. Here in addition will be six conference rooms, the electrical engineering department and meeting/training rooms with 400-seat capacity. “Doubling the size of our US headquarters is a fitting way to mark Flexicon's anniversary and exponential growth," explained Gill. At present Flexicon holds 36 patents in 13 countries. Its European head office is in Whitstable, UK. www.flexicon.co.uk
