Corning Incorporated, originally a glass business established in 1851 and incorporated in New York in December 1936, applies its expertise in glass science, ceramic science, and optical physics, along with manufacturing and engineering capabilities, to develop products. The company's markets include optical communications, display, mobile consumer electronics, automotive, life sciences, semiconductors, and solar. Corning's products include damage-resistant cover materials for mobile devices; precision glass for advanced displays; optical fiber, cable, and connectivity solutions for advanced communications networks like fiber to the home and data centers; products for drug discovery and delivery; and clean-air technologies and technical glass for cars and trucks.
