Corning (GLW) Offers Pioneering Automotive Glass Solutions
Zacks Investment Research | Jan 14, 2019 08:19PM ET
Continuing its rich legacy of developing pioneering products for the various industry verticals, Corning Incorporated (NYSE:GLW) recently unveiled the industry’s first automotive glass solutions that deliver impeccable performance and superior system economics. The products, showcased to the public for the first time in 2019 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, attracted great interest from prospective manufacturers.
In order to tap the huge market potential for connected and immersive driver experience in the cockpit, Corning developed two AutoGrade cover glass solutions for auto interiors — one in 2D and the other in 3D format. Both the product variants are subjected to rigorous quality checks and trial runs for the highest reliability performance. These include industry-approved reliability tests using Corning`s system-level design guidelines to have the perfect blend of authentic feel, superior durability and advanced optics.
While the 2D cover glass is primarily suited to flat applications, the 3D glass is more suitable for shaped or curved applications. The 3D glass also has a unique ability to bend at room temperature, thereby enabling it to cover the curved surfaces without compromising on the reliability factor. The products are developed using Corning’s proprietary ColdForm technology, which further reduces shaped cover-glass manufacturing costs by about 40% compared with other available variants in the market.
With such state-of-the-arts products, the stock has returned 4.4% against the decline of 6.7% for the Original post
