Balluff's new facility is intended to be a centre of excellence for product training for its UK and Ireland manufacturing partners.
Balluff has recently relocated to a new business centre close to Manchester Airport.
The company has been established within the UK since 1979.
The significant investment by Balluff in a new building for the UK Headquarters will allow for further growth and development.
The building is located in the heart of the Cheadle Royal Business Park and provides both a office and distribution centre.
It is also intended to be a centre of excellence for product training for its UK and Ireland manufacturing partners.
Managing Director John Radford added: "This new building shows the investment Balluff worldwide are making within the UK".
"The office itself provides us with a wonderful opportunity for expansion in the coming years".
"For us to be located in this modern vibrant building, along with its distribution facility will allow us to deliver both our products and services more efficiently to our manufacturing partners throughout UK and Ireland".
"Here at Balluff we have always been proud of our highly trained and experienced staff, the majority of our staff live within the area, it was therefore important that this was where our new UK Headquarters should remain".
The new facility was officially opened by The Worshipful the Mayor of Stockport June Somekh, local MP Mark Hunter and the President of Balluff Mr Rolf Hermle on Friday 14th December.
