Custom Chemically Strengthened Cover Glass

Our chemically strengthened cover glass is manufactured for electronic displays, touchscreens, industrial control panels, automotive displays, consumer electronics, and other applications requiring improved surface durability and a thin glass profile.

We provide custom chemically strengthened electronic display cover glass in different materials, thicknesses, dimensions, shapes, and configurations. Depending on the project requirements, options include CNC machining, drilling, edge processing, silk screen printing, AG, AR, and AF surface treatments, adhesive bonding, and OCA lamination.

As an OEM cover glass manufacturer, we work from customer drawings, samples, dimensions, and technical specifications. Prototype, small-batch, and volume production are available according to project requirements.

Custom Chemically Strengthened Cover Glass

Chemically strengthened cover glass is produced through an ion-exchange process that modifies the glass surface to create a compressive stress layer. This can improve resistance to surface damage while allowing the glass to maintain a relatively thin profile.

The final glass specification depends on the material, thickness, dimensions, geometry, and required performance of the application. We can manufacture display cover lens according to customer drawings or samples, including custom shapes, corner radii, holes, notches, edge processing, and surface treatments.

Available processing includes CNC cutting, drilling, edge machining, and silk screen printing. AG, AR, and AF treatments can also be added when required by the display design or operating environment.

For OEM projects, customers can provide drawings, samples, dimensions, or technical specifications. We support prototype development, small-batch production, and volume manufacturing.

What’s chemically strengthened cover glass?

Chemically strengthened cover glass is strengthened through an ion-exchange process. During treatment, smaller ions in the glass surface are exchanged with larger ions in a strengthening medium, creating compressive stress at the surface.

This process is particularly useful for thin cover glass where maintaining a slim profile while improving mechanical durability is important.

The actual strengthening parameters, including surface compression and depth of layer, depend on the glass composition and processing conditions.
