Corning

Corning Incorporated is an multinational technology company that specializes in specialty glass, ceramics, and related materials. In 1998, Corning divested itself of its consumer lines (including CorningWare and Visions Pyroceram-based cookware, Corelle Vitrelle tableware, and Pyrex glass bakeware among others) by selling the Corning Consumer Products Company subsidiary (now known as Corelle Brands) to Borden, but still holds an interest of about 8 percent.
