Waterproof Touch Screen

Waterproof touch screens are touch screens intended to keep working where water, oil or salt water is present on the surface — food processing, marine-adjacent equipment, outdoor terminals and workshops where the screen cannot be kept dry. Specify the liquids present and how they reach the touch surface.

What the company website states

The company website states that its touch screens support normal touch operation when water, oil or 5% salt water is present on the screen.

Water on a touch surface

Water on a capacitive surface can look like touches to the sensor, which is why ordinary screens misbehave when wet. A screen intended for wet environments is tuned to reject that false signal while still accepting real touches. Oil and salt water change the picture further, because they leave residues and alter conductivity, so the buyer-facing question is always which liquids are actually present, and how often.

The blog selection guide for wet environments turns those questions into a confirmation checklist, while this page stays at the category level. If your environment involves immersion rather than splashes or wet hands, please say so in the inquiry, because that is a different requirement.

What to confirm before ordering

Please confirm which liquids are present, how the screen is cleaned, the cover glass shape and treatment, and the controller interface. Please also confirm the minimum order quantity and the delivery schedule before payment. Certificates available upon request.

  • Confirm the liquids present: water, oil, salt water, cleaning agents
  • Confirm the cover glass shape and optical treatment
  • Confirm the controller interface and bonding method
