ShimmerScreen^®

ShimmerScreen®is produced by Ball Chain Manufacturing Co., Inc., the world's largest manufacturer of ball chain and related accessories. Founded in 1938 by Franz Taubner and his son Val in the garage behind their Bronx home, Ball Chain has grown to employ more than 95 people and now distributes the industry's highest quality ball chain across the globe.

Still family owned and operated, we proudly manufacture every foot of ball chain in the USA from our 70,000 square-foot facility in Mount Vernon, New York. As the only remaining company producing ball chain in America, we continue a decades-long tradition — including supplying the U.S. armed forces with chain for the iconic military dog tags worn by American soldiers.
