Melpur Growing
Consistently
Founded in 1945, Melpar has
doubled in size every 18 months for
the past 11 years. Recently it comn
-pleted erection of a complete new
headquarters laboratory' in North
ern Virginia, and is presently mak
ing substantial additions to its
Watertown. Mass. laboratory (6
miles west of Boston'), and to its
research department in Boston.
In a relatively few years. Melpar
has become a leader in electronic
research and development. The
nature of this work ranges from
basic research and components to*
the development of complete sys
tems for radar, countermeasures,
data reduction, computers and
communication.
The general categories of work
listed are, of course, representa
tive rather than all-inclusive. Se
curity considerations also restrict
the amount of detail which can be
'disclosed.
Despite Melpar's rapid expansion
the highest standards of personnel
selection have been maintainedi.
This selective process has p)roduced
a vigorous organization of great
experience and competence in all'
fields of electronics.
Located on a 44-acre landscaped
tract, Melpar's main laboratories
encompass over 265.000 square feet
under a single roof. They are
equipped with every facility. In
addition to the new, ultra-modern
headquarters plant, Melpar main
tains additional facilities in nearby
Arlington, Virginia, covering 150,
000 square feet.
Facilities at Melpar's recently com
pleted main laboratory are excel
lent. The new building enjoys dif
fused lighting, acouist ically) treated
ceilings, a complete air condition
ing system with 42 zones of con
trol, mnodern kitchen and cafeteria.
There is a clear roof for conduct
ing antenna tests andl measure
ments, including an antenna tower
with built-in elevator.
