More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
The Planar, simple truth is that the world needs displays. Planar Systems is an independent, North American maker of industrial displays used in medical equipment, office copiers, digital phones, industrial controls, and point-of-sale systems. The company's products include electroluminescent displays, cathode-ray tubes, and active- and passive-matrix liquid crystal displays. Its customers include Marconi Commerce Systems, Agilent, and Siemens. Planar makes its products in Oregon, Wisconsin, and Finland; about 80% of its sales come from the US. Most of its revenue derives from the components it makes; Planar is offering more comprehensive packages that include the bundling of hardware and software with its products.
