Huntsville Alabama-based Theatrical Lighting Systems Inc (TLS) is relocating its business to expanded facilities. The new home for TLS will be a former Lowe's superstore, located about five miles from the current location. The new 57,000sq.ft facility will be completely renovated and will include 13,000sq.ft of administrative offices, a showroom, demo room, WYSIWYG studio, repair lab and large warehouse with a 50ft x 125ft riggable grid for rehearsals and programming. By completely rewiring the electrical distribution system in the new facility, TLS will be able to set-up, test and programme multiple entertainment lighting systems simultaneously.

Working with the Alabama Industrial Development Board, through the Huntsville and Madison County Chamber of Commerce, the company secured tax abatements and industrial grants to help finance the project, which will allow it to consolidate its three Huntsville locations into one. The move will be complete by August 1, 2002.
