Continental Tire’s new headquarters campus represents a significant addition to the local business community that prioritizes sustainability and employee well-being. The design incorporates modern and timeless elements inspired by nature, with a focus on creating a work environment that enhances employee interaction and collaboration. With space for 350 employees, the building allows for ample natural light and features a variety of collaborative and quiet spaces, promoting a dynamic work culture. The facility also includes outdoor wooded areas and future trails, enhancing the work-life balance and overall well-being of employees.

A Commitment to Sustainability

Sustainability was a core driver from planning through delivery. The project achieved LEED Gold certification in 2025, supported by energy-efficient systems and a photovoltaic array of 840 modules that collectively contribute to a 42% energy-cost savings. A high-efficiency HVAC system improves indoor air quality while reducing long-term operational costs. In addition, native landscaping, drip irrigation and low-flow plumbing fixtures resulted in an 85% reduction in total water use compared to baseline.

Promoting Health and Wellness

Long-term development plans include on-site hiking/walking trails and other amenities that support a healthy active lifestyle. The campus also offers various features that promote wellness and connectivity, such as extensive landscaping and water features that seamlessly integrate with the building’s design. The landscaping includes native plants and green spaces, enhancing both the aesthetic appeal and sustainability of the project.

Purposely planned for employee engagement and well-being, Continental’s HQ represents a new era of the corporate campus.
