Corning Incorporated (NYSE:GLW) today announced the first
shipments of Corning® Gorilla® Glass 2 to key device makers who
plan to utilize the glass in new consumer electronics devices
planned for release in 2012.
“Corning’s new glass composition, Gorilla Glass 2, enables
slimmer and sleeker devices, brighter images, and greater touch
sensitivity, providing an ideal solution for the newest, most
sophisticated smartphones, tablets, and personal computers,” said
David R. Velasquez, global director, Marketing and Commercial
Operations, Corning® Gorilla® Glass.
“Since we launched Gorilla Glass 2 just last month at CES, we’ve
qualified the glass with more than half of our current customers,
and have shipped our first orders to customers who plan to start
production and release product in the first quarter this year.”
Corning Gorilla Glass 2 is the next generation of the widely
accepted damage-resistant cover glass for consumer electronic
devices, enabling up to 20% reduction in cover glass thickness
without sacrificing the performance consumers have come to expect
from the world’s most widely deployed strengthened cover glass.
Introduced in 2007, Corning Gorilla Glass set the industry
standard for damage-resistant cover glass. Today it is the most
widely deployed cover glass, used by more than 30 major brands and
has been designed into more than 600 product models, spanning over
600 million units worldwide.
Corning will demonstrate the new glass performance at the Pepcom
event, MobileFocus Global, on Feb. 27, in Barcelona, Spain.
