The coating specialist Gema Switzerland has started building its new company headquarters in Gossau. All assembly groups as well as production and offices are to be combined on the Sommerau site. A modern high-bay warehouse is also to be built.

Gema Switzerland has broken ground on its new headquarters in Gossau. According to a press release , the manufacturer of industrial equipment wants to develop and assemble its equipment and systems for powder coating there from summer 2024 and ship them worldwide.

New office space and significantly larger production areas are being built on a 20,000 square meter site in the Sommerau area. Furthermore, a modern high-bay warehouse is to be built. The assembly groups previously distributed across several locations will be merged there after completion.

The new laboratory for test and customer applications will offer 60 percent more space than the old one and will be equipped with four modern coating lines. "This means that Gema can carry out the coating tests for its customers around the world even more efficiently and practically," says the media release.

Gema has been part of the Graco Group since 2012 and has subsidiaries in Germany, Great Britain, Italy, France, USA, Mexico, China and Japan as well as a worldwide sales network in more than 60 countries.

With the new building in Gossau, the company is reacting to its growth and wants to offer more attractive working conditions.
