Leading Australian-owned international packaging company, Detmold Group, is constructing new Adelaide headquarters to foster collaboration, innovation and support continued local and international growth, built on a legacy of strong family values for a sustainable future.
The Group’s new global headquarters will accommodate up to 240 employees, with staff from eight sites across Adelaide metropolitan suburbs Brompton, Hindmarsh and Regency Park consolidating under one roof by the end of 2026.
Family-run Adelaide construction business Centina and leading design studio, Studio Nine Architects, have been appointed to build and design the new 5100sqm headquarters at Regency Park.
The new three-level building located at 260 Regency Road, Regency Park will include formal and informal meeting spaces with an open-plan design, breakout areas, on-site parking, end-of-trip facilities, and an on-site cafe, opening onto a spacious, green outdoor terrace designed for year-round enjoyment.
The building will adopt green design features to maximise natural lighting and ventilation and shade for energy efficiency, wellbeing and comfort, along with rainfall harvesting and recirculation.
Staff from the Detmold Group corporate functions and sales companies Detpak, PaperPak, Detmold Medical and Cup & Carry will relocate to the new head office, which sits alongside existing manufacturing and warehousing facilities.
Detmold Group CEO Sascha Detmold Cox says the Group’s new headquarters in Regency Park represented a strategic investment in the future of the Detmold Group.
“Purpose-built with sustainability, collaboration and employee wellbeing in mind, our new corporate home integrates contemporary design with environmentally-responsible solutions and an open-plan layout that supports collaboration and innovation,” Ms Detmold Cox said.
“Bringing our Detmold family under one roof will help foster stronger connections, knowledge sharing, and a unified culture aligned with our core values.”
Centina Managing Director Paul Nardinocchi says: “Centina is excited to collaborate with the Detmold family on the build of their new global headquarters – a flagship project for us in the coming financial year.”
“This partnership reflects our shared commitment to quality, innovation and sustainability and supports our continued growth as a local, South Australian family business, building not just structures, but lasting community connections,” Mr Nardinocchi said.
Studio Nine Architects Director John Galluccio says: “Given our long-term relationship and understanding of the Detmold business, we had the honour of being engaged to distil a tailored brief to guide and reflect the values of the business for their new international headquarters located in Regency Park.
“Their vision has been realised as a refined, elegant building that forms part of a broader masterplan, bringing the business’s various divisions into close physical proximity.”
Site-works for the development-approved build will commence in June 2025 with project completion scheduled for October 2026. There will be about 75 people on site each day, with up to 200 employed for the entire project. Manufacturing at Brompton will continue, with planning underway to also relocate those operations to Regency Park within the next five years.
