Siemer Milling Company unveils new technical center
New tech center includes Research & Development Laboratory and Wheat Test-Milling Facility along with company conference and collaboration spaces.
Siemer Milling Company recently opened a new, 8,000 square foot Technical Center, located adjacent to the Teutopolis, IL company office. The Center incorporates an expanded, upgraded Research & Development (R&D) Laboratory and a Wheat Test-milling facility, plus meeting, conference, and office spaces. Creation of the Center involved the complete renovation of a century-old mercantile building; coincidentally, the store was built by Clemens Uptmor III, the son of one of the partners in “Hope Roller Mills, Uptmor & Siemer, Prop.,” that later became Siemer Milling Company.
The Center allows for enhanced sharing and learning for product innovation. The R&D Lab was designed to enable Siemer to meet and exceed customer needs and expectations, and identify novel solutions to marketplace challenges. The Lab is well-equipped, with a controlled environment for consistent, accurate test results.
