Sofradir (Veurey-Voroize, France) and its subsidiary ULIS are reorganizing their corporate structure to improve overall efficiency, quality of service, and time-to-market of infrared technologies for commercial, aerospace, and defense markets. The new organization includes two new departments: one dedicated to innovation and strategic projects and the other to product development and maturity. It is intended to create operational synergies and streamline IR developments.
