SEW-Eurodrive, a global leader in power transmission products and services, planned a $20-million expansion for its Lyman, South Carolina campus, which is home to the company’s U.S. corporate headquarters. This expansion project included a 150,000-square-foot warehouse structure, as well as a 40,000-square-foot corporate office space. The challenge was to identify a construction method that could meet the aesthetic demands, functional needs, timeline, and budgetary requirements of the project. That’s when Tindall was called in to deliver the perfect precast solution.

The SEW-Eurodrive Lyman, SC campus structures were required to meet strict design criteria while remaining within budget. Precast concrete offered the perfect combination of aesthetic versatility, speed, performance, and cost-effectiveness. To bring these structures to life, Tindall worked directly with SEW-Eurodrive and McMillan Pazdan Smith Architecture to provide insulated precast wall panels with unique exterior finishes that checked all the right boxes for this large-scale office and warehouse construction project.
Since the completion of the two original building projects, Tindall has had the opportunity to support SEW-Eurodrive with additional expansions of both their Lyman and Wellford campuses in South Carolina. These expansions included a training and fitness center building, the Das Boot assembly building, as well as the Maxolution structure.
By working closely with both the customer and architect, Tindall was able to provide a wide range of architectural precast finishes that visually distinguished each structure while creating a consistent aesthetic across both campuses. To achieve this, Tindall leveraged colored concrete, Formliners, and multiple levels of sandblast textures.
