Fortrend makes equipment for storing and transporting photomasks in semiconductor manufacturing facilities. Photomasks, also known as masks or reticles, are the quartz lenses used in optical lithography machines to print circuits onto a silicon wafer. An advanced semiconductor design may call for dozens of masks, so safely handling those masks as they are moved from one lithography system to another is a priority for chip makers. Fortrend was established in 1979 as an engineering consulting firm, then shifted its focus to reticle automation equipment in 1989. The company had a change in management in 2002. Founder and former CEO John M. Rush is the majority shareholder.

Lauterbach sells to customers in the automotive, aerospace, control equipment, navigation, and telecommunications industries.

OmniVision Technologies, Inc. was founded in 1995 and is based in Santa Clara, California. OmniVision Technologies, Inc. (OmniVision) designs, develops and markets semiconductor image-sensor devices. The Company's main products, image-sensing devices, which it refers to as CameraChip image sensors, capture an image electronically and are used in a number of consumer and commercial mass-market applications. OmniVision’s CameraChip image sensors are manufactured using the complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS), fabrication process and are predominantly single-chip solutions that integrate several distinct functions including image capture, image processing, color processing, signal conversion and output of a fully processed image or video stream. It also integrated its CameraChip image sensors with wafer-level optics, which it refers to as CameraCube imaging devices. Its CameraCube imaging device is a small footprint, total camera solution that will enable the further miniaturization of camera products.

Shin-Etsu Handotai is one of the world's leading makers of silicon wafers and ingots used in semiconductor manufacturing. Handotai means "semiconductor" in Japanese. It also makes light-emitting element materials -- gallium phosphide, gallium arsenide phosphide, and aluminum gallium indium phosphide -- used in LEDs and other optoelectronic devices. In addition to manufacturing, the company provides engineering and support services. Customers including Intel, Motorola, TSMC, and Texas Instruments use materials produced by Shin-Etsu to make chips for computers, consumer electronics, and telecommunications devices. The company, a part of the ShinEtsu Group, has facilities in Malaysia, Taiwan, the UK, and the US.

ACL Semiconductors works to keep memory chips in heavy circulation. ACL Semiconductors company distributes memory chips in China and Hong Kong. It specializes in memory made by Samsung Electronics, which accounts for about 80% of ACL's sales. ACL took its current form and name in 2003 after Print Data Corporation acquired Atlantic Components Limited. This first ACL had been founded in 1991; the private company completed its transaction with Print Data to gain a stock market listing in the US. Print Data had been a distributor of office items such as business forms, furniture, and office equipment accessories.

Paul N. Gardner Company, Inc. (GARDCO) has its origin with the alliance of pioneer paint chemist Dr. Henry Alfred Gardner, Sr., Director of the Institute of Paint and Varnish Research in Washington, D.C. and his son Paul Norris Gardner in 1935. The team of Institute chemists at that time were active in the development and design of physical testing instruments for coating materials which were then made available to the industry. However, production of these instruments was not generally available to the public so the Henry A. Gardner Laboratory was established and incorporated in Bethesda, Maryland for that purpose.

Legend Power Systems is trying to build up its legend as a supplier of energy-saving devices. Through an exclusive license agreement, Legend Power manufactures and distributes the Electrical Harmonizer-AVR energy-saving device for the Canadian market. The company touts the Electrical Harmonizer-AVR as allowing large facilities to reduce their electrical costs by 7% to 12%. The technology has been installed by BC Hydro, Canada Post, and other customers. The company was formerly a subsidiary of Texas Gas & Oil, which exited its original oil and gas operations to focus on Legend Power's operations, then completed a reverse acquisition that left Legend Power Systems as the surviving corporate entity.
