Texim SolarSure displays
Sunlight destroys unprotected displays. UV radiationUltraviolet rays break down plastic layers and yellow polarizers. degrades materials, IR heatInfra-red energy builds up inside the stack and can trigger delamination if the bonding is poor. weakens adhesives, and glare turns screens unreadable. SolarSure displays are designed to survive: sharp visuals, no yellowing, and reliable operation; even in extreme sun.
Drag the handle to compare an untreated display against a SolarSure protection in direct sunlight.
This case comes from a real-world public transport deployment. The customer initially selected a display without considering solar protection, unaware of the long-term effects of constant sun exposure. After a summer season, the LCD polarizers had yellowed, and black-spot defects appeared due to overheating. On the right, you see that failure. On the left, a display engineered with the SolarSure concept, which is protected against UV, glare and heat.
In this case, displays were installed in greenhouse environments where exposure to direct sunlight was assumed to be moderate. However, prolonged UV radiation caused mechanical failure: the sensor film of the PCAP touchscreen detached from the glass substrate. This damage mimicked moisture ingress but was traced back to insufficient UV protection. On the left, you see a SolarSure-treated display that withstands such conditions. On the right, a unit with standard specifications. Not suited for greenhouse deployment.
Drag the handle to compare a failed greenhouse display against a UV-resistant SolarSure solution.
SolarSure StandardFor moderate outdoor use (e.g. sheltered kiosks or devices with limited sun exposure).
SolarSure AdvancedFor full daylight environments and extended temperature ranges.
SolarSure ProFor (outdoor) environments, enduring extreme conditions. Such as direct sunlight, wide temperature swings, and high-impact risks (e.g. vandalism).
