Question 1

What does Display Protect Solutions specialise in?

Accepted Answer

We design and supply high-performance polymer and glass cover lenses for electronic displays used in demanding environments. Our focus is on engineered solutions, not commodity sheet cutting.

Question 2

Which materials do you work with?

Accepted Answer

Primarily:

Polycarbonate (PC)
PMMA / Acrylic
Chemically strengthened glass

Material selection is driven by optical performance, impact resistance, environmental exposure, and validation requirements.

Question 3

Do you offer hard-coated or anti-glare lenses?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We supply lenses with anti-glare, hard-coat, anti-scratch, anti-static, and optical coatings, selected based on application risk, durability, and visual performance.

We do not treat coatings as cosmetic add-ons. They are specified as part of the design.

Question 4

Can you support low volumes and prototypes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We are structured to support:

One-off prototypes
Small batch builds
Pre-production validation runs

This is a core advantage of our micro-factory model.

Question 5

Do you manufacture in-house?

Accepted Answer

Design, machining, printing, lamination, and inspection are carried out in-house.

Specialist coatings are supplied via qualified partner processes where this delivers superior consistency and durability.

Question 6

Which industries do you serve?

Accepted Answer

We typically support:

Medical and diagnostic equipment
Industrial and HMI systems
Transportation and automotive interiors
Marine and outdoor equipment
Specialist electronics

If display failure carries cost or risk, we are a good fit.

Question 7

Can you help at the design stage?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Early involvement is strongly recommended.

We routinely advise on:

Material selection
Coating trade-offs
Stack-up tolerances
Environmental exposure risks
Manufacturability

Design decisions made early save time and money later.

Question 8

Do you offer optical bonding or lamination?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We support optical lamination and bonding where required to improve contrast, reduce internal reflections, or enhance mechanical robustness.

Question 9

Do you offer PCAP sensors?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can either source bespoke or off-the-shelf PCAP sensors to suit your project, or we can offer controlled pressure lamination of your free-issued PCAP sensors.

Question 10

Are your processes quality-controlled?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our systems are aligned to ISO 9001:2015 and IATF 16949 principles, with controlled documentation, traceability, and inspection appropriate to the application.

We prioritise repeatability over speed.

Question 11

Do you offer individual serial numbers on cover lenses?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can apply unique serial numbers to individual lenses where required.

Serialisation can support:

Field traceability
Asset tracking
Warranty control
Regulatory documentation
Service and maintenance programmes

Identification can be applied via controlled printing, self-adhesive labels, or permanent marking, depending on material and application.

Question 12

Can you provide full batch traceability of raw materials?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We maintain batch traceability from raw material through to finished product.

This includes:

Substrate batch numbers
Coating batch references (where applicable)
Processing records
Inspection records
Production date control

Traceability is maintained within our controlled quality system.

Question 13

What information do you need to quote?

Accepted Answer

Typically:

Drawing or outline dimensions
Material preference (if known)
Coating or surface requirements
Quantity and lifecycle expectations
Operating environment

If details are missing, we will challenge them rather than guess.

Question 14

Do you ship internationally?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We support UK and international customers and can advise on packaging, protection, and logistics for sensitive optical components.

Question 15

Why not just buy cut plastic sheet?

Accepted Answer

Because display lenses are functional components, not flat plastic.

Optical distortion, coating durability, edge quality, and environmental resistance all matter. Failures here are expensive.

We exist to prevent those failures.
