■Overview of the infoverre™ series




(Product website:http://www.agc.com/english/products/products_05.html)



infoverre has been developed as one of AGC’s glass signage product lines. It is a combination of glass and a large-sized display monitor, which is directly attached to the glass surface. Using AGC’s optical adhesive technology, the air layer between the glass and the LCD panel has been eliminated, which significantly enhanced the visibility and provides clear and vivid images through glass. infoverre is space saving as the monitor is supported entirely by the glass surface and a monitor mount is not necessary. In addition, no cooling fan helps lower electricity costs.

Since its market release in February this year, the infoverre series has been steadily expanding its applications. The window type has been adopted for use at commercial facilities and the table top type is used at the Milan Expo 2015. (See below for photos)
