Dead Front Panels for Backlit User Interfaces
Automotive ● Information Display ● Industrial ● Avionics ● Home
Abrisa Technologies now provides Dead Front Panels for Backlit Display and User Interface applications that afford equipment designers greater flexibility in achieving the overall clean lines and sleek uncluttered aesthetics they seek. When backlit, the Dead Front Panel illuminates and draws attention to icons and alpha-numeric indicators as required. When non-backlit, the icons remain hidden and the panel retains a more monochromatic and streamlined look, in perfect keeping with the dashboard or device they are installed into.
Abrisa Technologies provides complete solutions for your Dead Front Panels. From our vast selection of glass substrates to fabrication, strengthening, coating and screen printing, our ready-to-install Dead Front Panel glass offering is unequalled.
