CERADYNE INC

Ceradyne Inc. is a specialist in advanced ceramic solutions, developing high-performance armor tiles, ballistics protection, and industrial ceramic components that serve defense contractors, government agencies, and industrial OEMs that demand lightweight, hard-wearing materials; the company, identified as CIK 18937, operates within the SIC 3296 nonmetallic mineral products sphere, where precision ceramics for protective and thermal applications are a critical part of national defense and aerospace supply chains. Services include custom engineering, prototyping, and volume manufacturing that align with U.S. Department of Defense specifications, while the company also supports industrial clients requiring abrasion- and heat-resistant parts. Material risks stem from shifts in government procurement, export controls, and the need to comply with complex military and environmental regulations that govern advanced materials, along with volatility in rawmaterials pricing and customer concentration.
