Santa Barbara, CA , March 10, 2002. Santa Barbara Infrared, Inc. (SBIR), manufacturer of advanced Electro-Optic Test Equipment, has relocated into a newly redesigned 25,000 sq. ft. facility in Santa Barbara, CA. SBIR's rapid growth over the past two years necessitated the move from the company's 17,000 square foot facility.

After a yearlong search for a commercial property that would accommodate state-of-the art manufacturing and future growth, Santa Barbara Infrared found an ideal building to house administrative offices, manufacturing and all other operations under one roof. The long-term lease at the new building provides for expansion with a 5000 sq. ft. reserve area, which will be sublet until the company grows into the additional space.

The new site has been completely renovated and modernized to provide a contemporary environment with an abundance of natural light for the employees and administrative staff.

Santa Barbara Infrared was founded in 1989 and designs and manufactures the most technologically advanced Electro-Optic Test Equipment available worldwide. SBIR is the leading supplier of standard and custom instrumentation for FLIR testing, IR detector testing, IR simulation and testing-sensor boresighting.

Standard advanced technology products include state-of-the-art blackbody sources, target wheels, targets, collimators, target projectors, IR scene simulators, detector test benches and FLIR test software.
