High-Performance Screen Cover Glass for Modern Displays

In today’s display-driven world, your choice of screen cover glass directly impacts:

User experience (touch sensitivity, visual clarity)

Product longevity (scratch and impact resistance)

Brand perception (premium feel and reliability)

From smartphones to industrial control panels, the right cover glass solution bridges the gap between protection and performance.

In Weiman, we offer screen cover glass customization production services including:

Cutting: Rough shapes by diamond unit or laser cutting from big sheet of glass substrate into rough shapes of the final products, but edge is still sharp and big tolerances.

CNC processings:Edge grinding and chamfering, slotting, hole drilling.

Tempering: Chemically strengthening for thickness under 3.0mm and thermally tempering for 3.0mm thickness above.

Silk screen print: For thin thickness cover glass option, we use resin ink for print and for thermal tempering we use 3.0mm thickness above.

Coatings(AR, AF, AG):

AR means anti reflection by electroplating base on different spectral bands, single side increase 3-4% light transittance and double sides up to 99% at most.

AF with 2 kinds of methods including electroplating(costly but more durable) and spray(cheaper but less durable), it can also protect the AR coating from easy peel off.

AG means anti glare to offer excellent clarity in outdoor applications to avoid strong light to the eye directly cause danger.

Bonding: Mainly focus on 3M tapes including adhesive transfer tape, VHB tape and OCA tapes.

Lamination: Foil to protect from dirt and explosion proof sheet for better anti scatter.
