DTL Building 74,000-SF HQ Near Current Base

WARREN, MI-Industrial testing firm Detroit Testing Laboratory says it will almost double its space capabilities with a facility that could be expanded to more than 100,000 sf.

WARREN, MI-Detroit Testing Laboratory, a 102-year-old firm that specializes in industrial laboratory testing, has begun construction ofa laboratory technical center and corporate headquarters immediately north of its existing facility. When the new, larger building is finished, DTL will vacate its smaller building on 11 Mile Road, just west of Van Dyke.

The company did not release a construction cost on the 74,000-sf building. “With our recent growth, our current buildings no longer meet our needs,” says Alfredo Apolloni, president and chief executive officer of DTL. “Consolidating two of our existing buildings into a single larger andstate-of-the-art technical center will allow us to continue to expand our capacity, while significantly increasing the efficiency of all of our operations.”

DTL will be vacating a 55,000-sf. The new building has a capacity to be expanded to more than 100,000 sf, space that DTL expects to needs in another year or two, says Earl Smith, the company’s chief operating officer.
