Sensilo – Das neue JUMO-Werk im Technologiepark Fulda-West
Sensilo plant

The factory of the future

At a cost of around 50 million euro, the new building in the Fulda-West Technology Park is the largest investment in JUMO's history. As such, it successfully sets the course for the future. After all, around 13,000 m² of manufacturing area is available for the production of temperature and pressure sensors. The new plant is also leading the way when it comes to innovation, digitization, and sustainability. Take a look behind the scenes of this exciting construction project with us!

Minimal COfootprint

At the Fulda-West Technology Park, an innovative energy concept eliminates the use of fossil fuels entirely. The key measures include:

  • A 700 kW photovoltaic plant on the roof, which corresponds to the average energy demand of around 200 single-family homes
  • 20 geothermal probes, each 100 meters deep, installed on the 100,000 m² site
  • 1.2 MW/h cooling capacity for building air conditioning, which corresponds to the cooling capacity of around 2000 cars
  • A full-surface industrial floor heating system covering over 8500 m², which is larger than a soccer field (7140 m²)
  • Efficient heat recovery from production processes
