Founded in 1987 as the first professional polarizing plate manufacturer in Greater China through technology transfer from Japan's Sanritz Corporation, Optimax Technology Corporation is headquartered at No. 37, Lane 659, Ping-Dong Road, Taoyuan, Taiwan. The company maintains strong R&D capabilities, focusing on coating technology, in-house film development, precision coating, and surface treatment businesses to support LCD TV, monitor (MNT), notebook (NB), tablet PC, smartphone smart polarizers, and higher-reliability automotive products. It employs approximately 803 people and serves LCD manufacturers primarily in the Greater China region and beyond.
In recent years, Optimax Technology Corporation has emphasized expansion into precision coating and non-LCD applications leveraging its polarizer core technology, including products for mobile phones and tablets, while advancing mass production of large-size TV and notebook polarizers alongside development of automotive-grade products with elevated reliability requirements. The company continues to enhance manufacturing processes, testing, and production capacity through ongoing improvements initiated since its establishment.
