With five decades of experience, GBC Materials boasts an impressive reputation in the industry for its high quality products and outstanding customer service.

Founded in 1958, the company was originally named The Glass Beads Company before changing its name to GBC Materials in 1986. Throughout the years the company has carried on the tradition of manufacturing high-quality glass products and continues to manufacture glass preforms for glass-to-metal seal applications, but the main production output is now high volume, intricate pressed ceramic parts. These products serve a variety of markets, including digital electronics, telecommunications, HDTV, automotive electronic subassemblies, dual core microprocessors, home appliance, and aerospace.

GBC Materials’ industry achievements remain impressive. The company produces over 1 billion alumina components per year for the micro-electronics industry, and its glass preforms are critical components in military micro-electronics.
