These companies have a lot in common with other manufacturing businesses. They all need space, energy and a process for converting raw materials into finished goods. However, some companies may differentiate themselves by making a specific product or by their focus on marketing and sales.
The largest of these is Corning, whose glass and ceramic technologies are used in optical communications, technology, and specialty materials. The firm is best known among consumers for its Gorilla Glass that goes on the screens of Apple’s (AAPL -0.52%) iPhones and iPads. Other prominent companies include Anchor Hocking Co, O-I, Fuyao Glass America Inc, and Apogee.
While many of these companies have centralized home offices to make strategy and marketing decisions, most are local small businesses that specialize in a specific area such as painting or power washing services. For example, a locally owned company in Knoxville specializes in residential and commercial interior/exterior painting and gutters and shutters.
