More than doubling the existing facility, Promega’s Kepler Center will feature over 196,000 square feet for expanded storage, warehousing, ambient kitting, and office space. In the office and common spaces, resinous and hardwood flooring is starting to be installed with casework and other interior finishes to follow. The warehouse space features sealed concrete floors while the ambient kitting and assembly rooms will have rubber flooring. The Kepler Center will feature multiple Vertical Lift Modules (VLM) which is an enclosed shelf-based storage system designed to increase storage capacity in a compact space. These VLMs are installed inside high-tech freezers, preserving the products inside. Other MEP fixtures and furnishings continue to be installed within the next month, prior to startup and commissioning. While Promega looks to move into this addition in April 2023, Kraemer Brothers will continue to remodel space in the existing facility to meet their growing needs.
