About Norland Corporate Philosophy and History Norland Products Inc. began in 1960 as a manufacturer of specialized gelatin used in the electronics industry.
Modern industry evolves on technical know-how.
The market we wanted to enter would be dependent on the technical expertise that we could furnish. This is also the age of specialization. Initially we decided to concentrate on light sensitive adhesives and coatings. Large corporations require substantial volumes to warrant producing a specific product. We felt that there was a potential for a small company which could manufacture products that a large corporation would never consider.
