PaperDisplay (Acreo) launches low cost displays printed on paper substrates making use of Agfa’s Orgacon Products.

PaperDisplay (Acreo) manufactures and sells low cost information displays printed on paper substrates for applications such as smart labels, smart packaging, printed matters, etc. The paper display is partly bi-stable, this means that once it is switched it takes only a small current to keep it updated.

PaperDisplay Products are based on Acreo’s patented electro-chromic (EC) paper electronics technology. The display element is a lateral electro-chromic cell consisting of patterned transparent electro-chrome PEDOT/PSS electrodes covered with a solid electrolyte. The on paper coated or printed transparent ORGACONTM electrodes are supplied by Agfa-Gevaert (Belgium).

PaperDisplay sells evaluation kits, prototype and volume series.

A modified label printing press is available to print the paper displays and optional graphic layers. Licensing can be considered.
