For a while now our Norwegian friends have

been welcoming guests to their brand-new

headquarters. It is situated only 20 minutes south

of Oslo City. Customers, suppliers and business

associates are invited to visit the 14,000 square-

metre premises that is the new home to their

tailormade central warehouse and head office.

The planning started back in 2016. The process

involved not only management but also staff and

workers to specify future logistic demands and

office needs for further growth. The environment

and sustainability played important roles in

the construction. Photovoltaic, e-mobility and

intelligent building automation are the company’s

main business areas: “It was therefore a self-

evident choice to utilize the high expertisewe have

in this for our own building, “says CEO, Hege

Amundsen Elvestad, who is the third generation

to run the family business.

The new HQ is built as an A-type building that

is very energy efficient. Also, more than 2,000

square meters of their roof is covered by 1,050

solar modules. With a total installed capacity of

300kWp, they will achieve an annual production

of about 234,400 kWh. In addition, 18 modules

have been installed on the facade with a capacity

of 8.8kWp. “The facade panels are right next to

our guest parking lot with 5 e-vehicle chargers,

so all our visitors will be able to see the source

of the clean energy they charge their cars with,”

explains Ole Petter Fiære, Product Manager for

Solar Energy.

These solar installations will supply energy for

the general consumption of the building, as well

as the 40 e-vehicle chargers for staff. In this way

the HQ should be self-sufficient with solar energy

from spring till autumn. This outstanding building

will be a showcase for the energy efficiency

solutions FEGIMENorge provide in collaboration

with installer clients throughout the country. The

easy access to these solar installations and their

features is ideal for courses, training sessions and

education for clients and staff alike.

The new central warehouse is responsible for

distribution to the whole of Norway - for the

South even overnight. The planning placed great

emphasis on customized logistics. Developed

in Norway, the AutoStore system of bins in a

compact cubical form (see Voice 2/2012), was

transferred from the previous warehouse and

enlarged from 10.000 to 20.000 bins. The

picking efficiency of this system is much higher

than traditional semi-automatic systems. In the

new warehouse the percentage of picks by

Autostore will be increased from 50 to 70%.

The system also simplifies the storage areas and

reduces the number of picking zones.

“To achieve the final layout, the process required

an exceptionally high degree of involvement from

management, workers and experts,” says Project

LogisticManager, Bethina Samnøy Siristuen. “It is

incredibly good to come home,” says Hege. “Both

construction and relocation were demanding

and – inevitably - took some focus away from

what we really want to do: help our customers

succeed and develop!”

FEGIME Norge has a new Head Office and Central Warehouse.
