SURREY, UK – Vision Engineering opened its new global headquarters here.

The 129,200 sq. ft. building replaces a 33,000 sq. ft. production and design factory and a 28,000 sq. ft. commercial building.

The new complex includes all departments, including manufacturing, and houses 120 employees. The firm says this will facilitate closer collaboration for the inspection and measurement system marketplace.

“Vision Engineering was born from the British car racing industry in the South of England,” said managing director Mark Curtis. “We are delighted to continue to grow our international business from our purpose-built R&D and manufacturing facility on the actual site where the original factory was located in 1958. We are immensely proud of our founder Rob Freeman, MBE, after whom our new headquarters is named, and look forward to continuing to play our part in the long tradition of high-tech manufacturing and innovation.”

The Mantis Family of eyepiece-less microscopes will continue to be manufactured at the US headquarters located in New Milford, CT.
