And though it’s a newcomer, it’s one of the most talked about and prevalent companies at the convention,” Julia Boorstin reports for CNBC. “This year, the CES is focused largely on touch-screen tablets and smart phones, and Corning makes the material—called Gorilla Glass—that encases nearly all these devices.”

“Gorilla Glass is used in 150 different products on the market today—phones, tablets and laptop screens,” Boorstin reports. “Over 200 million devices with Gorilla Glass have sold and after just three years on the market it has 20 percent of the phone market.”

Boorstin reports, “Corning doesn’t talk about who its customers are, but Apple is clearly one of its largest—it uses the glass for its iPhone and iPad.”
