Korean Diving Equipment Manufacturer Visits GL Glass, Greenlights 3mm Gorilla Glass 3 Sampling Cooperation

4th Jul 2026-Dongguan GL Glass Co.,Ltd

A professional Korean manufacturer of high-end diving equipment recently paid an on-site visit to GL Glass production base, targeting customized 3mm-thick Gorilla Glass 3 for its new-generation diving gear series. The visit marks a key breakthrough for GL Glass in the overseas outdoor and marine equipment market, resolving the client's long-standing material sourcing dilemma.

According to on-site sources, the Korean enterprise has long adopted Corning Gorilla Glass 3 as the core transparent material for its professional diving equipment. Benefiting from the material's excellent scratch resistance, pressure resistance and high light transmittance, it can adapt to complex underwater environments and meet the stringent durability requirements of deep-sea diving devices. However, most mainstream Gorilla Glass 3 products on the global market are concentrated in thin specifications ranging from 0.4mm to 2.5mm, which are mainly used for consumer electronics and wearable devices. The special 3mm thickness required for the client's diving equipment to withstand underwater high pressure has been hard to source, restricting the company's new product research and development and mass production progress for a long time.

During visit, GL Glass shown the samples of 3mm gorilla glass to the client and they really happy to find correct supplier finally.

After extensive global market screening and supplier comparison, the Korean manufacturer finally locked in GL Glass as its potential cooperative partner, relying on the company's mature customized thick glass processing capability and stable Gorilla Glass supply system.

During the on-site inspection, the client boss conducted a comprehensive and detailed audit of GL Glass production workshops, precision tempering processes, quality testing systems and customized production capabilities.

The client spoke highly of GL Glass standardized production management, advanced processing equipment and strict quality control standards. They confirmed that GL Glass fully meets their technical and delivery requirements for 3mm Gorilla Glass 3 for diving equipment. After in-depth technical communication and business negotiation, both parties reached a preliminary cooperation consensus smoothly.

At present, the two sides have officially launched the sample production phase. GL Glass will tailor-make 3mm thick Gorilla Glass 3 and 4mm Panda glass (consider cost) samples according to the client's diving equipment parameter standards and environmental adaptation requirements. After the completion of sample testing and performance verification, the two parties will further promote formal bulk order cooperation.

This cooperation not only solves the core material sourcing pain point of the Korean diving equipment brand, but also further verifies GL Glass competitive advantages in customized thick-specification Gorilla Glass products. It also lays a solid foundation for the company to further expand the high-end outdoor sports and marine equipment material market in South Korea and even Southeast Asia.
