Displax, a developer of interactive technologies today announced the launch of SKIN
ULTRA, a transparent film that has been specifically developed to address the demands of
global TV manufacturers who are actively exploring the next generation of touch technology
for home TV consumers. SKIN ULTRA is a conformable film that can be used in flat, curved
and foldable touch screen designs without diminishing performance with performance being
comparable to the touch sensitivity of a 10" tablet or a smartphone. The product range
starts at 47" and will scale up-to 84" by end-2014.

Miguel Fonseca, CEO, Displax commented, "The touch experience for large formats is now
the same as your iPhone - there is no compromise on speed or touch sensitivity! We firmly
believe that 2014 and beyond marks the rise of a new consumer in the home and anticipate
high demand for TV home applications with a touch experience capability to drive industry
growth over the next 5 years. To date, we've been extremely successful in the corporate
marketplace with large format applications but clearly see home consumers as a massive new
segment given positive indications from major Korean and Taiwanese TV manufacturers who
are actively seeking to develop the next generation of touch experience products for the
home."

Shipments of non-Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) films for touch screens are on track to rise
by a spectacular 320 percent in 2103, the highest rate of annual growth in the IHS

Film Report - 2013
