Product Overview

What is Optical Cover Glass?

Optical cover glass, also known as cover lens or protective cover glass, is the outermost layer of a display assembly that provides optical clarity, scratch resistance, and structural protection for the underlying display panel and touch sensor. It is the first surface users interact with on smartphones, tablets, industrial HMIs, medical devices, automotive displays, and smart home panels.

Our cover glass is manufactured from high-grade aluminosilicate (Dragontrail/Gorilla-type), ultra-clear float, or borosilicate glass substrates. After precision CNC shaping, the glass undergoes chemical strengthening (ion exchange) to achieve surface compressive stress above 600MPa, delivering exceptional impact and scratch resistance.

Optional surface treatments include anti-fingerprint (AF/oleophobic) coating, anti-glare (AG) etching, anti-reflective (AR) coating, and anti-smudge treatments. We provide full in-house processing: CNC cutting, edge profiling, hole drilling, screen printing (IR windows, logos, borders), coating, and cleaning — all in a controlled clean-room environment.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we hear most often about optical cover glass specifications, ordering, and customization.

Aluminosilicate glass (like Gorilla/Dragontrail) is designed for chemical strengthening, achieving 9H hardness and much higher impact resistance — ideal for mobile devices and high-end electronics. Soda-lime glass is more economical, suitable for static displays, protective windows, and lower-stress applications. We can recommend the right substrate based on your use case and drop-test requirements.
