A new producer of electroluminescent (EL) displays is targeting advertising and packaging as its first markets.
Lumoza, a spin-out from Belgian research agency IMEC, Hasselt University and screen printers Artist Screen, will produce the displays based on the latter's expertise in commercial printing techniques.
The spin-out has already gained interest from a company interested in EL displays for DVD packaging, according to Lumoza CEO Wouter Moons.
Moons states: 'In this first phase, we address the advertising and packaging industry. Both are continuously looking for innovative products. The DVD packaging industry has already shown interest, as they are looking for new, appealing packaging alternatives.'
