Last year a new production facility was inaugurated in Su­zhou, China, 100 kilometers west of Shanghai. Working together under one roof, three product centers  - Endress+Hauser Maulburg, Endress+Hauser Conducta and Endress+Hauser Wetzer - assemble and calibrate level, pressure, analysis and temperature measuring instruments. The three companies invested about seven million euros. The new building of the Japanese sales center in Fuchu, a suburb of the capital, Tokyo, was also inaugurated (cost: over five million euros).

At the end of 2006, the 'Sternenhof' in Reinach, Switzerland, was ready for occupancy. At a total cost of 34 million Euros, this is the largest building project in the history of the corporation.  The 19,500 square meter complex includes offices, conference, training and exhibition rooms. The Swiss sales center Endress+Hauser Metso, Endress+Hauser Process Solutions (specializing in automation solutions), Endress+Hauser Instruments International (responsible for providing support to international markets) as well as the holding companies of the corporate group are all located here. Around 400 people work in the 'Sternenhof'.

A new hall has greatly improved work procedure in the manufacture of magnetic-inductive flowmeters with large nominal diameter. The company has invested about 14 million euros in a new plant in Greenwood the US state of Indiana. Production began at the beginning of May 2007. The flowmeter plant in Suzhou in China is also undergoing expansion at present. There are plans to extend the plant in Aurangabad, India, too.

Building is underway at two locations on the Endress+Hauser site at Maulburg in Germany: for about twelve million euros the specialists for level and pressure measurement are constructing a building with production and office space as well as a new canteen for the 1,500 employees on the site. A new building is also planned for construction in the region around Berlin, where pressure sensors are already developed and manufactured.  Endress+Hauser Conducta, the product center for analytical measurement engineering, plans to start work on the new office and production building at the headquarters in Gerlingen, Germany in summer 2007.

In Manchester a new building for the British sales and product center is under construction. The new building, costing about seven million euros, is scheduled to open in September 2007. Endress+Hauser Thailand is also to get a new location. Work has started on the building of a logistics and service center in Weil am Rhein, Germany, too.  It will primarily take over work for the German, Swiss and Austrian sales centers, as well as for the sales support center, Endress+Hauser Instruments International.
