"Repairing damaged LCD displays is inconvenient and expensive in terms of repairs and warranty costs", commented Xavier Lecocq, Market Development Manager, 3M's Optical Systems Division.
"The versatile, durable construction of our ARMR200 film means that users - whether they are engineers, stock takers, salesmen, students, business travellers or gamers - can enhance and prolong the lifespan of their devices easily and cost-effectively".
"The equipment stays in service during replacement of the film and no technician call-out charges are incurred".
Vikuiti ARMR200 film has an ultrathin, multilayered construction with an antisoiling top layer to help protect LCDs from scratching and fingerprint damage.
It also repels ink, even permanent markers, is resistant to most solvents including window cleaner, cola, coffee, and can withstand temperatures between -35 to +85C.
An additional anti-reflective coating significantly improves optical clarity, minimises glare and increases readability.
Displays which require a stylus benefit from the matte hardcoat which helps ensure touch-display sensitivity is not affected whilst creating a natural, nonslip surface for writing.
The nontacky adhesive coating of the Vikuiti ARMR200 film can be applied to flat surfaces with a squeegee without trapping bubbles and ensures that no residue is left on the display after removal.
Replacement is recommended every 3-6 months depending on the amount of usage.
The Vikuiti ARMR200 film from 3M is available in a variety of sheet sizes in packs of three or five through 3M's distribution channels.
