Cleaning supply company expands in Gurnee

Weiman Products LLC , a cleaning supply company, is expanding in Gurnee.

The Chicago offices of CBRE recently represented Weiman Products LLC in a 255,418-square-foot lease renewal and expansion at 705 Tri-State Parkway in Gurnee.

Whit R. Heitman, Sam Badger, SIOR, Brad Weiner and Jared Paff of CBRE represented Weiman in the transaction.

Previously, the firm occupied 155,000 square feet at the property. With the renewal and expansion, Weiman now occupies the entire building. The building, developed by CenterPoint Properties in 2008, offers 30-foot clear heights and 20 exterior docks.

Lake County has experienced 1.38 million square feet of leasing activity year-to-date, for a positive absorption of 427,000 square feet, according to CBRE Research. This activity brings the area vacancy rate to 5 percent.

"Weiman has experienced excellent growth in recent years and this location allowed the firm to conveniently expand to accommodate its increased activity," said CBRE's Heitman.

Weiman products are available nationwide in mass retailers, supermarkets, hardware stores and home improvement centers under the Weiman, Goo Gone, Magic, Natural Magic, SCI (Stone Care International), Gonzo and OOPS! brands.
