Sybron Shifting HQ to Newport

Executives with Sybron Dental Specialties Inc. are moving closer to the beach this fall.

Sybron, a maker of braces, fillings and other dental products, is planning to move its headquarters to Newport Beach from Orange in September.

Sybron has leased 18,500 square feet of space at 100 Bayview Circle. The office complex faces Bristol Street near the San Joaquin Hills (73) Toll Road. Financial terms of the 5.5-year lease weren’t disclosed.

The dental products company is planning to move Chief Executive Floyd Pickrell Jr. and nearly 40 other workers to the new office in September, said John Trapani, vice president of human resources.

Sybron, which now occupies about 114,600 square feet in two buildings on Collins Avenue in Orange, was running out of space there, Trapani said.

Only the executive operations will be going to Bayview, Trapani said.

“We stay here,” he said. “This is the worldwide headquarters for the operating units, and we do some manufacturing here.”

Sybron’s been looking for a new corporate home for a while. The company “looked at a lot of properties” before deciding to lease space on Bayview, Trapani said.

So is the new headquarters closer to executive homes?

Trapani declined to answer, saying only “I don’t anticipate we will lose anyone. Many of us live in the OC area.”

Sybron is one of Orange County’s larger public companies, with a market value of $1.5 billion at recent check.
