Con­struc­tion of the new cor­po­rate head­quar­ter in Hanover has started

Work on the new build­ing for the JÄGER Group has begun. The first foun­da­tions have been laid, and the entire com­ple­tion is planned for spring 2021.

In the spring of 2019, the City of Hanover final­ly grant­ed plan­ning per­mis­sion for the con­ver­sion and new con­struc­tion of Lohweg in Hanover-Anderten. There, the new JÄGER com­pa­ny head­quar­ters will be built on the exist­ing build­ing of Jäger Umwelt-Tech­nik. In May, the con­struc­tion com­pa­ny Munte­bau GmbH was able to begin with the demo­li­tion work for parts of the exist­ing building.

Since then, con­tain­ers have also been on the site for both the con­struc­tion work­ers and the con­struc­tion man­age­ment. The lat­ter coor­di­nates there reg­u­lar­ly with archi­tects and spe­cial­ist plan­ners as well as with man­ag­ing direc­tor Mar­ius-Quin­tus Jäger.

Dur­ing the demo­li­tion, how­ev­er, the con­struc­tion work­ers came across main lines for gas, water and elec­tric­i­ty that were marked dif­fer­ent­ly in the pre­vi­ous owner’s plan – there were sig­nif­i­cant delays in the con­struc­tion plan because the lines had to be laid.

The expan­sion of the pro­duc­tion hall for Jäger Umwelt-Tech­nik – at the back of the exist­ing hall – could start in July 2019. The hall is sched­uled to be put into oper­a­tion in spring 2020. Olaf Bart­meier, Pro­duc­tion Man­ag­er Jäger Umwelt-Tech­nik, is look­ing for­ward to the new premis­es and finds the con­struc­tion work on the site an “excit­ing new sit­u­a­tion”. “Now the phase has begun where you can see the progress on the con­struc­tion site every day – even a cup on your desk can vibrate”.

The civ­il engi­neer­ing for the new office build­ing began in Sep­tem­ber 2019, when the site was exca­vat­ed to a depth of five meters to pour the foun­da­tions and set the base­ment walls.
Hans-Chris­t­ian von Cons­bruch, Man­ag­ing Direc­tor of Jäger Umwelt-Tech­nik, fol­lows the con­struc­tion progress with great inter­est: “I reg­u­lar­ly doc­u­ment the changes on our site with aer­i­al pho­tographs. Like most of us, I am of course look­ing for­ward to the day when we can move into our new offices”.
