New hardcoated film from MacDermid Autotype enhances the readability and durability of mobile phone windows

MacDermid Autotype, one of the world’s leading developers and manufacturers of high quality coated films, has launched a hardcoated polyester film specially designed to offer excellent levels of clarity and scratch resistance for the displays of communications devices such as mobile phones. The new film, called AutoForm PEG, is compatible with the latest Film Insert Moulding (FIM) techniques, also known as In-Mould Labelling (IML).

AutoForm PEG is suitable for use in a wide range of devices incorporating flat or curved windows. The film’s superior optical clarity results in displays that are both easy to view and that offer a high quality cosmetic finish.

The AutoForm polyester film is hardcoated, making it extremely resistant to scratches and abrasions, as well as vigorous cleaning, ensuring that a high level of optical clarity is maintained for the life of the display.
