Canon invested more than £21 million in the construction of its UK and Ireland headquarters at Woodhatch, near Reigate, Surrey, and the building was officially opened by HRH The Duke of Edinburgh in April 2000.
The purpose-built Head Office fuses visually stunning architecture with the latest in business solutions technology while the environmentally friendly building is landscaped to blend into the natural slope of a hill, preserving existing meadowland and tree areas. Conserving energy
The concept of energy conservation was adopted from the outset, with the recycling of demolition material and the preservation of the original site. Solar panels generate up to 35kw of power, and energy is further conserved through various features including a natural air conditioning system and the use of special heat-absorbing concrete. A '"living showroom"
Designed to showcase the company’s cutting edge products and to act as a 'Living Showroom', the building is not only a landmark but also a symbol that represents everything Canon values.
