PROFILE |
 |
A bull in a china shop wouldn't stand a chance against ceramics made by Ceradyne. The company manufactures advanced ceramics that combine hardness with light weight and the ability to withstand high temperatures, resist corrosion, and insulate against electricity. Some uses of Ceradyne's materials include armor for military helicopters such as the Blackhawk and Apache, armor vests for soldiers, internal engine components, microwave tube products, and orthodontic brackets. The company sells to contractors and original equipment manufacturers, with 3M's Unitek division accounting for 14% of sales. Ceradyne sells roughly 15% of its products outside the US. Ford Motor Company owns 15% of the company.
