Final Beam Placement Marks Completion of Structural Work on Sherwin-Williams New Global R&D Center

The Sherwin-Williams Company, along with the project’s construction workers, recently celebrated a topping off ceremony with the placement of the final steel beam for the company’s new Global Research and Development Center located in Brecksville, Ohio. This milestone marks the completion of the construction project’s structural work, a project that began with a groundbreaking ceremony in October 2021.

Part of the company’s Building Our Future project, the 600,000-square-foot facility will bring chemists, engineers, technicians and support teams together into a state-of-the-art hub for innovation and development of the Sherwin-Williams future products and services. The new R&D Center will support product development, coatings research, color technology and process engineering. The R&D center will be home to approximately 900 Sherwin-Williams employees once open.

Gilbane Building Companies is the general contractor on the project.
