20 years have passed since CODIXX AG was founded in 1998. A small company with a big idea to change the polarizer market by introducing a new production technique.
CODIXX´s business is based on a unique technology to make polarizers with exceptional properties. The idea of using silver in glass has been around for some years, and has been used since the 14th century when yellow glass was made for church windows. Some hundred years later, the dichroism and therefore polarization abilities of silver-nanoparticles in glass have been discovered. This produced the idea for the CODIXX founders for a revolutionary production of high-quality polarizers, known as colorPol® polarizers. Thanks to this technology, customers can request nearly unlimited customizations at a competitive price.
Since then a lot has happened. The portfolio expanded continuously from standard colorPol® polarizers to the high transmittance series colorPol® HT, the colorPol® Laserline and the patterned colorPol® S. In 2018, the latest in narrowband polarizers, the so-called colorPol® N, was added to the product offering.
In addition to the growth of the polarizer family and the number of employees, the need for a bigger production facility grew as well. The decision was made quickly to invest in increased production capacity, that started back in 2017 and is still ongoing. Furthermore, the ISO 9001 certification renewal to the improved 9001:2015 standard guarantees consistent product quality and enhanced customer satisfaction.
New products under development and increased production capacity will continue to improve polarizers long into the future. LASER COMPONENTS USA is looking forward to supporting the product line for all spectral ranges, contrasts conditions, and designs for its customers in North America.
