Founded in 1919 in lower Manhattan by my grandfather, Herman Neuwirth, Testrite was originally an importer and manufacturer of scientific instruments.
WW II forced the company to rely solely on manufacturing, producing government specified optical goods and war materials.
In 1955 the company moved to Newark, N.J. For the next five decades we manufactured photographic, art material, office product, audio-visual, & educational accessories under our own brand name and others.
Quality assurance
Testrite Visual is committed to providing quality products at very competitive prices.
Standard catalog items are made with tools and dies, ensuring consistency and proper component fit.
For custom products, we prepare job folders with all pertinent specifications, cut sheets, etc. that travel with the job as it goes from one department to another.
Final quality assurance occurs in final assembly
prior to packing.
We employ an experienced workforce and our staff has a very strong work ethic from top to bottom. All of us are proud of our quality and performance levels.
