CREATIVE & SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION
Illing Packaging is world class provider of packaging solutions driven by creativity, pride and integrity. For almost 100 years, Illing Packaging has been recognized as a national and now global leader in the container distribution industry. They maintain a vast inventory of packaging solutions, combined with in-house decoration technologies, so they can immediately respond to their customers’ requirements.
THE CHALLENGE
Illing’s day-to-day business activity at their existing location was becoming cramped due to a 20% increase in staffing and 35% increase in inventory management – all from a rapidly growing new business pipeline. Their team knew it was time for an expansion or new development that combined all their existing buildings under one roof to increase efficiency and collaboration. They sought out the Briohn team to help work through the best route for their operation. A plan was established to secure land and build a new production and warehousing facility that provided ample space for their continued growth. Briohn helped custom design a new facility that included a large production space to fit Illing’s custom packaging printers, warehouse storage, truck bays to handle outgoing shipments, and office and break room spaces for employees.
Land was secured in Germantown, WI for the new development. The location was a central hub for Illing’s existing business and allowed quick access to highways for logistical purposes but also their employees. Briohn’s network of project managers, superintendents and subcontractors took on this project during the Winter months and delivered the project ahead of schedule.
THE RESULT
A new state of the art 248,000 SF facility to supports Illing’s operational production flow. Allowing the business to continue to grow while providing their employees with an exciting place to work. The facility boasts printing and fulfillment areas, large space for inventory management, multiple truck bays to support logistic activity, offices for their team, and an expansive solar panel setup on the roof to harness clean energy for their building.

We are very pleased with the work the Briohn team did to support our expansion. The building is beautiful and functional, and allows us to grow into the space even more in the near future.
