New US Customer Inquire IR Transparent Screen Print Glass
Jul 28, 2026
28th Jul 2026-Dongguan GL Glass Co.,Ltd, which is a leading OEM of advanced optical glass solutions, received an inquiry of a US customer for glass panels requires screen printed infrared(IR) transparent ink.
For this inquiry, initiated by a key player in the consumer electronics sector, seeks a customized glass solution for device interfaces. The core technical requirement centers on applying an IR-transparent screen printing ink to the glass surface. This specialized IR ink is essential for applications such as proximity sensors and remote-control receivers, as it effectively blocks visible light while allowing infrared rays to pass through, preventing optical interference and ensuring accurate sensor performance.
"We are excited to receive this inquiry, which validates our commitment to precision glass manufacturing," said sales manager. "The application of IR ink on glass is a technically demanding process. The ink film must exhibit excellent adhesion to the glass, high resistance, and precise optical properties: Specifically, high opacity in the visible spectrum and high transmissivity in the infrared range. Our technical team is fully prepared to meet these specifications and demonstrate our capability to deliver reliable, high-performance glass components."
The requested solution leverages a screen-printing process where the IR ink is applied to cover plates or panels. This technique is widely used in the telecommunications and household electronics industries for applications ranging from smartphone display panels to infrared panels and remote-controlled systems. The technical formulation typically involves a two-component system that can be cured to achieve the required durability and optical performance.
GL Glass is currently preparing its technical proposal and sample materials to demonstrate its proficiency in handling this specialized project. The company views this inquiry as a significant opportunity to expand its footprint in the U.S. market for high-tech glass components.
