Aluminum Insights is a start-up aluminum extrusion manufacturing plant located in Northern Indiana, near Syracuse. The building, specifically designed around the aluminum extrusion process and equipment, is purpose-built for aluminum extrusion and features a lean production process, efficient coordination efforts, and a flexible design to revolutionize the industry.
Collaboration with consultants and equipment supplier, Presezzi – located in Italy, presented challenges such as converting metric equipment models to BIM software. Coordination efforts focused on complex piping systems and electrical conduits.  Concrete forming and pouring expertise was crucial for numerous pits, isolated pads, and MEP coordination. The pre-engineered metal building grid was customized for equipment and process flow, while the building’s length was visually broken down with different wall panel colors. The design allows for future presses and expansion, while also prioritizing natural daylighting and incorporating a solar panel array on the roof.

Ancon Construction successfully designed and renovated the interior and exterior of the building located at 14911 SR 23, Granger, to create a new home for Granger Dental and Orthodontics. The challenge was to repurpose a former classic car dealership and transform it into a state-of-the-art dental practice. By incorporating several architectural wall panels and decorative screens, a uniform and modern look was created across the entire façade. A vertical element, signage, and angled entry canopy were also added to give the building a new architectural identity.  The 6,700 square foot facility includes ten general dentistry treatment rooms and ten orthodontic suites.
“The whole team at Ancon Construction delivered an amazing end result. Ingenuity and expertise start to finish. This was a great project.”Â

The
Goodwill Excel Center building in South Bend was a renovation to the 1930’s building that was part of the massive Bendix Corporation Campus. In the 1960s, the building became underutilized with the fall of this specific industry.
In 2015, Ancon Construction partnered with Goodwill Industries of Michiana to retrofit nearly 21,000 SF of the building, transforming a portion of it into an adult education center. In 2021, Ancon worked closely with Goodwill after they purchased the entire building to transform the remaining 57,000 SF. Renovated spaces include an E-commerce warehouse, training rooms, office space, tech step labs, and other workshop spaces.
