Siemens Healthineers—a spinoff of Siemens that focuses exclusively on healthcare equipment, solutions, and services—has begun construction on a £250 million ($314 million) facility in the United Kingdom to research and manufacture a breakthrough sustainable design for MRI superconducting magnets that reduces the need for helium from 1,500 liters (more than 396 gallons) to a single liter (just over a quart).
The 603,000-sf project is being developed by Tritax Symmetry in the company’s Oxfordshire innovation park and built by Winvic of Northampton. The facility, which is scheduled to open in 2026, will generate more than 1,300 jobs and is designed to be carbon neutral. Sustainability features include photovoltaic arrays, LED lighting with motion sensors, and EV car charging.
