DETAILS

Hitachi Construction Machinery Americas transformed its Georgia campus into a sustainable, energy-efficient headquarters for North and South America. Over 155,000 square feet of former manufacturing space was converted into Class-A offices, training, and lab spaces. The project emphasized sustainability, reusing materials like recycled concrete and steel, and incorporating energy-efficient features like Low-E glass and advanced energy management systems. The headquarters not only serves as a corporate hub but also acts as a base for Hitachi’s expanded construction and mining operations, including rental services, parts remanufacturing, and dealer support throughout the Americas.
