Etymology

The word 'corning' derives from the name of Corning Inc., a company that was established in 1851 in New York. The founding members were involved in the production of glass, and the company's innovation and expansion allowed it to become synonymous with high-quality glassmaking. Over the decades, the term 'corning' evolved to represent not only the actions specific to glass shaping but also the technological advancements made by the company. Corning became a leader in developing materials for new technologies, such as fiber optics and specialty glass products. As the company diversified its operations and research, the term 'corning' also began to encompass a broader range of applications and processes, transforming it from a brand name into a more general term within the glass manufacturing industry.
