About Zytronic
Zytronic is a world-renowned developer and manufacturer of a unique range of internationally award-winning, optically transparent, interactive touch sensor overlay products for use with electronic displays in industrial, self-service and public access equipment.
Zytronic's products employ a sensing solution that is readily configurable and embedded in a laminated core that offers significant durability, environmental stability and optical enhancement benefits to meet systems-specific design requirements.
Zytronic has continually developed process and technological know-how and IP since the late 1990s around two projected capacitance ("PCAP") sensing methodologies: trademarked by Zytronic as PCT™ ("Projected Capacitive Technology"), and MPCT™ ("Mutual Projected Capacitive Technology"), in which Zytronic presently holds 15 internationally granted patents.
Zytronic operates from a single site near Newcastle-upon-Tyne in the United Kingdom, providing its manufactured products globally through a number of sales channel partners. Zytronic is relatively unique in the touch eco-system as it offers a complete one-stop solution including the processing internally of the form and factor of the glass and film substrates, the assembly of the associated touch overlay products in environmentally controlled cleanrooms to customers' specific requirements, and the development of the bespoke firmware, software and electronic hardware which links the manufactured touch interactive overlays to a customer's integrated system and product.
