Materion’s Precision Optics business, which customers recognize as Materion Balzers Optics, was formed in 2020 following the company’s acquisition of Balzers Optics in Liechtenstein. The business unit includes five manufacturing sites across the U.S., Europe and Asia. Materion Balzers Optics delivers next-generation optics solutions that enable innovations including solutions for Industry 4.0, semiconductor inspection, virtual/augmented reality, autonomous driving technologies, advanced optical systems for advanced driver assistance systems and head-up displays.
