Sofradir’s head office will relocate to Palaiseau

Sofradir announces today it will transfer its headquarters to Palaiseau on the Plateau de Saclay, a hi-tech center for materials and optics research in the Paris region. The relocation is a result of Sofradir's need to expand and increase production. It will install the manufacturing and research facilities of three of its infrared technologies under a single roof by spring 2014.

Palaiseau is in close proximity to many technological research institutions, scientific universities and hi-tech companies. At the new 4,000 square meter site, Sofradir will create its second technological center, focused on advanced infrared imaging technologies. It aims to duplicate the main production plant near Grenoble, France; a city Forbes Magazine ranked the fifth most innovative in the world.
