The Moffett Technical Center consists of office, laboratory and pilot plant space located in Bedford Park, Illinois, in the near west suburbs of Chicago.
It was built in 1948-49 and named in honor of George M. Moffett, then-president of Corn Products Refining Co.
The main building features bas relief murals created by architectural sculptor Lee Lawrie, who is best known for the Atlas statue in front of New York City's Rockefeller Center.
One panel, labeled "Argo", appears to be symbolic of the Moffett Technical Center itself, showing an engineer working in the pilot plant, a chemist with retorts and test tubes, and a scientist at a microscope.
IFSH has FDA personnel, IIT faculty and students, and has worked with more than 50 food industry-related partner companies.
