Abrisa product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Abrisa Technologies designs, manufactures, and distributes precision optical coating solutions and custom glass-fabricated optical products. Operating through two divisions—Abrisa Industrial Glass (AIG) for specialty glass materials and fabrication, and ZC&R Coatings for Optics for precision thin film optical coatings—the company delivers vertically integrated custom engineered optics solutions from prototype to high-volume production. Products and services include chemically strengthened HIE™ glass, specialty substrates, anti-reflective and conductive coatings, NVIS filters, and value-added fabrication services for defense, medical, display, and industrial OEMs.
Product overview
Abrisa Technologies operates as a vertically integrated total solution provider combining two business units—Abrisa Industrial Glass (AIG) and ZC&R Coatings for Optics (ZC&R)—to offer a unified portfolio of specialty glass, precision optical coatings, and custom glass fabrication. The core product portfolio spans three interconnected areas: Glass Materials (specialty substrates including HIE™ chemically strengthened glass, ultra-thin glass from 0.07mm, borosilicate, and heat-resistant glass from manufacturers like SCHOTT, Corning, and AGC); Optical Coatings (precision thin film coatings from UV 200nm to far infrared 20 microns including anti-reflective, ITO/IMITO conductive, NVIS filters, and temperature management coatings); and Glass Fabrication (custom fabrication from 0.1mm wafer parts to multi-meter solutions including cutting, screen printing, chemical/heat strengthening, and machining). Products like PRO-NG™ 120 HIE™ non-glare glass and CleanVue™ PRO coatings represent proprietary branded offerings that integrate the company's glass and coating capabilities. The company is a subsidiary of HEF Photonics and holds ISO and ITAR certifications.
