Würth France has announced plans for the expansion of its domestic Erstein site in Alsace with the construction of three new buildings to accommodate increasing orders.  

The initiative, dubbed Evolog 2030, has been divided into several contracts. 

The company has contracted Eiffage Énergie Systèmes for electrical works and Eiffage Construction for the site's structural development.  

A new round of consultations is currently in progress to further support Würth France’s growth. 

The expansion includes a shuttle building dedicated to automated product storage, a functional building for order processing, and a third facility for shipping, which will feature 12 truck docks.  

Eiffage Énergie Systèmes project manager Mathieu Bohn said: “Before we took on this major project, Würth France used to call on us regularly to do small jobs. We were able to win their confidence and demonstrate our know-how through the quality of the work we carried out.  

“The smooth running of this project may well be a good omen for the future of the Evolog venture.” 

The electrical engineering team installed high and low-voltage installations for a duration of two years, from April 2022 to April 2024. 

The team also installed two new medium-voltage delivery substations, the Evolog and Energy transformer substations. 

It further managed electrical distribution and both indoor and outdoor lighting systems linked to the building management system.

Additionally, the team has been responsible for setting up the site's fibreoptic network, IT and Wi-Fi infrastructure, various workstations, access control, an anti-intrusion system, and a fire protection system. 

This announcement comes after Veolia selected a consortium comprising Eiffage Génie Civil and Chantiers Modernes Construction to build three water treatment plants in the Île-de-France region.
