Completed under a design/build contract, the design and construction of this advanced cartridge manufacturing project was completed in 11 months with all infrastructure and clean rooms ready for machinery installation. This 700,000-SF facility is modeled after a similar facility in Japan and greatly expands Canon’s toner manufacturing capability in Virginia. Operations within the building include clean room technology, molding and packaging. This project was considered “the largest expansion by a manufacturer in the history of Virginia” at completion. The project budget totaled $90 million for design and construction; with equipment it reached nearly $500 million.
