When Olympus America relocated its corporate headquarters from New York to Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley, Eastern Exterior Wall Systems (EEWS) played a pivotal role in the successful execution of the project. Engaged early in the planning phase, EEWS provided a full suite of services including engineering, Exterior Wall System Fabrication, and project management. Their involvement from inception ensured a seamless integration of the Exterior Wall Systems into the overall design and functionality of the 350,000-square-foot facility.
Working in tandem with the project architect and construction manager, EEWS ensured that every phase— from Exterior Wall Panel Manufacturing to final field execution—was completed with precision and speed. The high-performance Exterior Wall Panels, composed of durable aluminum and granite materials, formed a sleek, modern facade. This not only contributed to the energy efficiency of the building but also achieved the visual impact Olympus desired for its flagship headquarters.
The prefabrication strategy implemented by EEWS proved essential to meeting the fast-tracked construction schedule. Their advanced Exterior Wall Panel Fabrication techniques allowed for components to be built off-site in a controlled environment, resulting in improved quality control and faster assembly. EEWS’s experience in Exterior Wall System Manufacturing contributed to the efficient production timeline and ensured that components met all structural and aesthetic specifications.
As on-site work progressed, EEWS carried out professional Exterior Wall Panel Installation, minimizing disruption while maintaining precision and safety standards. The streamlined process of Exterior Wall System Installation helped Olympus expedite its occupancy and transition plans. Over 650 employees moved into the state-of-the-art headquarters on schedule, a testament to EEWS’s commitment to performance and coordination across all construction disciplines.
