Abstract

Article on Readfield-based office products manufacturer Saunders Manufacturing, noting that sales of protective cases for personal digital assistants (PDAs) and other mobile devices has driven growth at the company. Since 2000, when Saunders purchased case maker Rhinoskin, the company has been shipping protective cases for PDAs, smart phones, mp3 players and Nintendo's Gameboy SP. This month, Saunders expanded its relationship with computer retailer Dell, Inc. by creating three new aluminum and titanium cases for Dell's line of Axim PDAs. Rhinoskin sales are up 30 percent so far this year. Michael Stanga, vice president of marketing at Saunders, said the company's challenge is to balance its expansion into consumer electronics with its traditional product lines such as clipboards and aluminum form holders.
