Meade is one of the last U.S. owned optics manufacturers to still design, engineer and manufacture its main-line products right here in the United States at its state-of-the-art facility in Irvine, California. Parts and assemblies are precision-machined, while premium quality optical glass is ground, figured and polished to exact tolerances.

Meade then applies its proprietary optical coatings to its lenses to maximize light transmission. Meade's design and manufacturing operations adhere to rigorous quality control standards applied by dedicated employees at every phase of development and production. Meade's emphasis on innovation and unparalleled manufacturing processes is the driving force behind its leadership position in the optics industry.
