Mercury Opens new €25M site in Germany
This initiative forms part of the government’s “Silicon Island” strategy
Mercury Engineering has taken a major step forward in expanding its European operations with the launch of a cutting-edge Off-Site Manufacturing and Engineering (OSM) facility in central Europe, supporting the ambitions set out in its Go Beyond strategy.
Situated in Schönebeck, Germany, the new hub includes 13,000 square metres of production space alongside 200 purpose-built office workstations. From here, specialised teams will develop advanced, repeatable systems designed to improve efficiency, consistency, and scalability across projects throughout Europe.
The facility is strategically designed to deliver engineering solutions to project sites within 24 hours across 15 regions, enabling a critical path approach to construction. By integrating expertise in engineering, production, digital innovation, and European project delivery, Mercury aims to provide clients with streamlined, controlled, and high-quality outcomes.
The official opening took place on April 2nd and was attended by local media, government and business representatives, as well as partner company Max Bögl, Mercury’s OSM teams, and senior leadership. Key speakers included Saxony-Anhalt Prime Minister Sven Schulze, District Administrator Markus Bauer, and Schönebeck Mayor Bert Knoblauch.
Michael O'Dwyer, Program Manager for OSM, highlighted the importance of the facility, stating that it strengthens Mercury’s ability to deliver complex, high-value projects across mainland Europe with greater efficiency and reliability, reinforcing the company’s reputation as a leading global player.
CEO Eoin Vaughan added that the investment marks a significant milestone for the company, enhancing its capacity to deliver large-scale, complex projects with precision and confidence. By bringing engineering, OSM, and digital delivery teams together under one roof, Mercury is positioning itself to ensure consistency and excellence at every stage of construction.
