- POLARIS UNO, Inc. manufactures and sells synthetic fibers and specialty chemical materials for the hairpiece and optical lens industries worldwide. The company operates through two core business divisions: Synthetic Fiber and Chemical. The Synthetic Fiber division develops and produces synthetic hair yarns and accessories for wigs, hairpieces, braids, and extensions, offering high-temperature and flame-retardant synthetic fibers under the UNOLON brand; polyvinyl chloride (PVC) wig fibers under the Falang brand; braided synthetic hair fibers under the Acra brand; and wig care auxiliaries, including specialized wig adhesives, conditioning oils, and finishing agents. The Chemical division manufactures optical raw materials and fine chemical compounds for corrective plastic ophthalmic lenses, offering allyl optical monomers; sunlight-reactive photochromic monomers and photochromic dyes; blue-light blocking (blue-cut) monomers; and customized chemical processing solutions. The company serves wig and hairpiece manufacturers, hair fashion distributors, ophthalmic lens producers, and chemical processors, exporting its products to approximately 20 countries across Africa, Asia, the Americas, and Europe. In recent corporate developments, POLARIS UNO, Inc., as an affiliate of the Polaris Group alongside Polaris Office and Polaris Sewon, participated in the strategic acquisition of IT and communications solution provider Linos Inc. in February 2024, subsequently rebranding the business as Polaris AI Inc. to foster group-wide artificial intelligence and ICT synergies. In addition, the company has actively implemented capital management and corporate restructuring programs to enhance shareholder value while continuing to expand its synthetic fiber production capacity and specialty chemical product lines. Founded in 1999 as Uno Fiber Corporation and formerly known as UNO & COMPANY Ltd. before adopting its current name in March 2022, POLARIS UNO, Inc. is headquartered in Wanju-gun, Jeollabuk-do, South Korea, where it operates its primary manufacturing plants alongside international distribution and branch operations in South Africa.
