TFT & Touch Solutions

Supported by IP-rated ingress protection and all-weather multi-touch functionality.

Addressing Environmental Challenges for Outdoor Displays

In EV charging infrastructure, intelligent transportation, and marine sectors, standard screens often experience accelerated degradation. We re-engineer the display stack to address these specific bottlenecks

Prolonged UV Exposure & Optical Degradation

Continuous UV radiation causes standard cover lens ink to peel or fade, and turns optical adhesives yellow, degrading product aesthetics and light transmittance over time.

Thermal Blackouts & Freezing (Isotropic Phase)

Intense infrared (IR) heat can cause standard LCDs to overheat and turn black (reaching the isotropic phase). Conversely, sub-zero temperatures (below -20°C) cause standard liquid crystals to freeze and experience delayed response.

Physical Impact

Unattended outdoor kiosks and toll stations face physical abuse and blunt impacts. Damaged screens lead to increased maintenance costs and safety risks.

Complex Environmental Interference (Water & Gloves)

Standard capacitive touch panels experience erratic inputs when subjected to heavy rain, or lose functionality when operators wear thick industrial gloves.

Long-Term Availability & Supply Chain Security

Comprehensive In-House Manufacturing

We manage the core production processes internally. From cover lens printing and CTP manufacturing to LCM assembly and optical bonding, this in-house approach minimizes color variance in mass production and supports supply continuity.

5-10 Year Longevity Commitment

We offer a stable supply program for 5-10 years to support your equipment lifecycle. Supported by a PCN (Product Change Notification) protocol and a strict BOM (Bill of Materials) Lock, we maintain consistency across production batches.

Validation & Testing

We encourage rigorous outdoor testing. We provide samples for qualified projects, allowing you to validate performance under direct sunlight and extreme temperatures before placing bulk orders.

Outdoor Engineering & Integration FAQ

We manage UV degradation through two methods. First, we use a Japanese 407nm UV-Cut OCAthat blocks 99% of high-intensity UV rays, protecting the organic light-emitting layers and slowing brightness decay by 6.5 times. Second, for the cover lens, we apply Customized Japanese High-Temperature Ceramic Ink, preventing the borders from peeling, cracking, or fading under prolonged sun exposure.

Alongside selecting wide-temperature raw materials (+95°C limit), we apply an IR (Infrared) Blocking Filmon the product. This film blocks 85% of near-infrared rays (850-1200nm), actively reducing the internal module temperature by 5-8°C to mitigate the risk of thermal blackouts.

We utilize outdoor-grade OCA designed to resist low-temperature delamination. Furthermore, we can integrate a transparent heating device between the touch panel and the module. This heater can be set to activate in sub-zero conditions, ensuring the liquid crystals maintain normal response times.

We apply specific strengthening processes based on the glass thickness. For 2mm glass, we use chemical strengthening to achieve an IK08 rating. For 3mm to 5mm glass, we utilize physical strengthening to reach an IK10 impact resistance rating, minimizing the risk of damage for unattended kiosks.

Internal condensation typically forms within the air gap of standard displays. We eliminate this gap using LOCA/OCR optical bonding. Additionally, the cover lens is secured to the chassis using 3M VH5952 tape and precision edge-sealing glues, creating an IPX7 watertight seal that effectively prevents moisture ingress.

Yes. To optimize sunlight readability, we combine our 800-1500 nits backlights with Anti-Reflection (AR) and Anti-Glare (AG) surface treatments. AR treatments reduce surface reflectance to ≤2%, while AG treatments scatter direct light, supporting clear visibility from various viewing angles.

Goldconn produces "Hidden Display" (Dead-front) technologies. When the screen is off, the cover lens can feature a Seamless One-piece Black panel, a Wood Grain finish, or a Mirror surface, blending into different architectural or equipment designs.
