Hagleitner's new site sets quality standards - even among individual halls

The headquarters of Hagleitner Hygiene is located in Zell am See, Austria. The company, which develops cleaning, disinfecting and care products, cosmetics, as well as dispensers, dispensing equipment and applications, now has 27 sites in 12 European countries.

One of Europe's leading healthcare provider and developer has opened its second site in Hungary: after Győr, Hagleitner has built a new, modern warehouse and office building in Szikszó. Weinberg ’93 Építő Kft..

Investment with prospects

Mark Varga, head of Hagleitner's Hungarian subsidiary, helped us get to know the project, which was inaugurated in early February 2025. As he said:

"Hagleitner has been active in Hungary for three decades, and we opened our first site in 2005. Due to the positive business development, we decided to build a logistics centre in the eastern part of the country. We have invested around 1.5 billion forints to ensure the planned growth over the next ten years."

A single concept - tailor-made implementation

The company's 27th site was built to a uniform concept, similar to those across Europe, so there were high expectations for the investment.

"Our service centres are also meeting places. This is where we train our staff and our customers. To do this, the new site has a spacious conference room and a training room." - said Mark Varga.

The design and construction requirements were high. And for the client, it was not only completion on time and to specification that was crucial, but also equal cooperation.

As they said, the work proved their calculations right: the implementation was easy and quick, "but when challenges arose, they always came up with a suitable solution", he added, summing up:

"We were very satisfied with the work of Weinberg and our cooperation confirmed that having the right competence is the most important criterion when choosing a contractor."

They kept the execution in one hand

Dániel Gábor, the project leader of Weinberg informed us about the details of the project.

"Construction started in the spring of 2024 and the handover took place in early 2025 - everything went according to plan. Almost all the services were provided by Weinberg - from the foundation works to the reinforced concrete supporting structure (precast and monolithic), roof insulation, internal cladding, mechanical and electrical engineering and external cladding."

Only the facade cladding and furniture were ordered separately.

A hall section of almost 800 m² and a total of roughly 450 m² of office space on two levels, with an office station for ten people and a meeting room for 25 people, were completed.

Quality in the details

According to Gábor, the biggest challenge was not so much meeting architectural standards, but rather the high quality expectations of the client:

"If the builder already has reference projects with high quality workmanship, then the standard is correspondingly high. The design and technical details were extremely demanding."

The client insisted on the use and supply of certain materials, which they provided for the construction. This was the case for the cold tiling: the slit and cut tiles came from Austria, as did the floor carpet. No special structure was required for the project, but it was a rare solution to install underfloor heating under the entire hall, the efficiency of which was enhanced by a foam glass layer-grid design.
