It’s been over a year since we moved into our new office building in Chattanooga, we’re still getting used to some of the perks. The rooftop terrace is just one of the many awesome features of our new building, and we’ve been waiting for the chance to use it.

Outfitted with a shade sail, grill, and table for 10, the rooftop is a nice place to take a break—and it provides a great view of the solar array that powers our operations. The terrace also makes the perfect spot for an outdoor gathering, so we did just that and held a casual summer BBQ party with our employees and their families.

Grilling some sausages and sharing a meal outdoors was the perfect way to relax and unwind after a long day of work–especially once the cornhole board was set up and the beanbags started flying. Here at Dressler Automation we know that work and fun go hand in hand, so we host seasonal events for our employees throughout the year. We went for a friendly all-team bowling match during the holiday season, and recently transformed our office into a football watch party.

These events and more were just a small part of the two-fold celebration that took place in 2020: We were proud to observe the 50th anniversary of Dressler Automation’s founding in Germany, and 10 years since the first US office was opened here in Chattanooga.

The summer BBQ was a ton of fun, and was a great inaugural use of the rooftop for employee events. Want to keep up with what Dressler Automation employees are doing in the future?
