 PROFILE
Balda has no problem with being plastic. The company -- the successor to a camera manufacturer started in 1906 -- develops and manufactures high-performance plastics. Its major products are cellular telephone components such as shells, display panels, and buttons. Balda customers include leading cellular phone manufacturers such as Alcatel, Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia, Siemens, and Sanyo. The company also provides plastics for medical engineering and satellite technology. It offers expertise in product and component design and engineering, and in surface treatments.
