Demmel AG, constructed by Cooper Construction, is located in East Flat Rock, NC. This German-based company is a leader in industrial design and identity technology. The new production facility spans 70,000 square feet, which includes 20,000 square feet of office space. It specializes in the manufacturing of automotive sill plates and emblems for clients such as BMW and Tesla, serving as their manufacturing presence in the United States as their US manufacturing presence. 

Cooper Construction also performed HVAC services for Demmel AG. The HVAC scope involved installing a mechanical system with several cooling and heating units. This included Trane 60-ton condensing units paired with Johnson 60-ton DX air rotation units for primary cooling, along with Trane 3-ton and 5-ton split heat pump systems for supplemental heating and cooling. The HVAC scope also featured air distribution infrastructure, including ductwork, louvers for intake and exhaust, and roof-mounted fans for ventilation. Proper insulation of all ductwork ensured energy efficiency and reduced condensation. The scope covered both heavy commercial equipment for main building loads and lighter split systems for targeted climate control.
