December
2005
We recently sent
out an announcement pertaining to the relocation of our company. We have received
several questions and this letter is an attempt to answer them.
- The company was moved approximately five miles, from Buena Park, California
to Fullerton, California.
- All of our 117 employees transferred to the new facility.
- We moved from six small buildings, totaling 47,000 square feet, to
one building, totaling 67,000 square feet.
- The only change to any of our equipment was the necessity to have
them all re-certified to the latest UL standards.
- We continue to manufacture the same line of products, on the same
equipment, using the same methodology.
- Our management direction and leadership remains the same.
- With the exception of the above noted FAX number all of our phone
numbers, including the area codes, and email address remain the same.
Having said that, it is our belief that our
new facility offers an opportunity to not only increase our capacity and
product offering but to also re-engineer many of our business processes with
the goal of becoming a more valuable and stable supplier to the Aerospace,
Marine and Nuclear industries.
As with any move there have been some
unexpected delays but, we have had an exceptional team of employees and
consultants who have immediately addressed each situation and resolved them.
We hope this answers most of your questions
however, if you have additional questions or any other concerns please feel
free to contact us.
Regards,
