This acquisition will enable GDS to build on its existing range of display technology while offering superior manufacturing and engineering services to its customers in North America to support fast turnaround times on advanced bonded display services. Under the terms of the acquisition, Clearview Displays will become a subsidiary of GDS, known as GDS Clearview, retaining its staff and headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon and reporting directly to GDS Inc’s US Headquarters in Roscoe, Illinois.
CleaMarco Cohen, Sales and Marketing Manager at GDS, comments, “This strategic acquisition will allow GDS to provide our existing customers with an improved range of products and a better all round service. We believe that GDS Clearview will also help to support faster turnaround times on advanced bonded display services, and we hope to further grow our presence on the West Coast as a result of this acquisition.”
David Blass, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at GDS Clearview, comments, “Clearview is excited to become part of GDS. GDS Clearview will continue to offer the same optical bonding services that we have always provided and the integration into Global Display Solutions gives customers of both businesses access to a wider range, and support worldwide.”
In January 2007, GDS Clearview moves to a new facility four times larger than its previous capacity. This 8000 square foot site caters for the growing demand for bonded LCDs.
