Renishaw, Inc. recently broke ground on its new office and warehouse facility in West Dundee, IL, which is about 40 miles from Chicago. The two-story facility located at the Oakview Business Park will be the company’s North American headquarters.

The additional space includes flexible training and demonstration areas, with an open two-story exhibit hall for customer tours and product demos. The facility can also accommodate future expansion as Renishaw continues to grow.
