In order to be able to continue to offer the best service in the future and to meet the growing demands, IME GmbH is moving into new premises in Gailhof, near Hanover. The new headquarters will offer space for more employees, additionally have its own logistics hall and will be future-oriented.
On this page we would like to give you an overview of the new premises. We will update this page regularly by adding the milestones in the timeline so that you can accompany the construction progress together with us. From planning to completion, we will keep you informed.

Planned completion
The move into the new headquarters is scheduled to take place in November 2023. In addition to the office building, in which the sales department will be located, there will be also a large hall for the logistics department. This will improve work efficiency and flexibility. The direct connection to the A7 motorway will also guarantee a smooth delivery traffic. In addition, IME takes its ecological goals very seriously and makes its contribution to environmentally friendly measures. In addition to solar panels that provide the necessary electricity, charging stations for electric cars are being installed on the premises.

The hall has got a roof
The hall has finally got a roof, and we were able to celebrate the topping-out ceremony. Numerous partners of IME came by to celebrate this significant day with us. But the office building is also taking shape. The individual offices are already accessible. Currently, we are on schedule and looking forward to the further progress.

The foundation is laid
Now, not only are the outlines of the new company headquarters visible, but the foundation has been poured. So construction continues and is gradually taking shape. We have of course accompanied this again with the drone. So feel free to take a look at the video and be right there at the birth of the new building.

The construction continues to take shape
In the meantime, the construction continues to take shape. The new hall and the adjacent office building are already clearly visible. In a few months, the walls will also be in place, so that nothing will stand in the way of moving in at the end of the year.

Start of construction
On the 5 December 2022, the construction of the new building in Gailhof,in Wedemark, has finally started. For this project, IME GmbH relies on a regional construction company. It will take approximately one year to complete the building and then nothing stands in the way of moving to the industrial estate in Gailhof.

Groundbreaking ceremony in Gailhof
The groundbreaking ceremony for the new premises was held in October 2022. In addition to the shareholders, the mayor of the municipality of Wedemark also took part. In the presence of IME GmbH employees and representatives of the press, the foundation stone for the future of the company was laid.

Land purchase
In order to be able to create a building of this size, a suitable location must of course be found. It was important to the partners that they could continue to realise their own visions in the region. So, the choice ultimately fell on the industrial estate in Gailhof, which is also in Wedemark and perfectly connected to the A7 motorway. The purchase deal was finally carried out in May 2022.

Start of the planning
The planning of the new IME GmbH building has therefore started as early as October 2021. The goal is to create a place for the next generation where employees can work in a future-oriented manner and which will further improve the company’s logistics. Therefore, in addition to an office building, a large hall was also planned to optimise the work processes. This was realised together with the architect´s office, dhp-Architekten from Lindwedel.
