Folium Optics was founded in November 2013 by Steve Kitson and John Rudin, beginning life from offices within an incubator space in Bristol Robotics Lab, at the University of the West of England. After just two years, we’d outgrown our initial facilities and moved to our own industrial unit in Thornbury, Bristol, where we continue to grow and thrive. We now have our own advanced cleanroom for developing our display technology and making prototype devices, with an evolving team of scientists, engineers, project and commercial managers. We’ve grown organically, focussing on the Healthcare and Defence sectors, using our income to develop the business and create a stable, steady expansion of our capabilities and scope. Our customers include the National Health Service, Ministry of Defence and a range of international blue-chip corporations. Our goal is an ambitious one: to use the unique properties of our displays to to solve challenging problems for our customers and deliver our technology to consumer products across the world.
