GE Plastics has remained the pacesetter in high-performance polymers since introducing the first engineering plastic, LEXAN� resin, nearly 40 years ago. The company's global stature and phenomenal growth are attributable to a dual commitment: to develop advanced technology and to deliver practical customer support.

This guiding principle has spawned an array of other GE materials businesses with a spectrum of diverse products. These include silicone sealants, adhesives, coatings and lubricants; extruded sheet for structural glazing and high-performance graphic insulating films; phosphite antioxidants and modifier resins and industrial diamonds and other superabrasives.
