DHL Americas Innovation Center

DHL Americas Innovation Center

The DHL Americas Innovation Center in Rosemont, IL is built to showcase the future of logistics. Currently, DHL has Innovation Centers in Germany and Singapore, but the Rosemont center is the first in the United States. The Innovation Center serves as a platform for research and collaboration between DHL, customers, and industry partners leading the way in business-entertainment and futuristic design.

This high-end 24,000 SF space includes a waterfall, glass staircase, green features and more. The automated building control management system allows users to control the functions of the building environment using handheld devices anywhere onsite. Large workrooms, a 9,000 SF event space, and interactive exhibits allow visitors to catch a glimpse of the future of logistics and transport infrastructure, showcasing advances like robotics, A.I. self-driving cars, IIOT, and virtual reality. Due to the tech-focused features and design, the project required Keeley Construction to coordinate with expert technicians and engineers to ensure the building met DHL’s vision.
