WASP adds acrylic panels to its touch screens

Setting a new trend in the manufacture of resistive touch screens, WASP is now offering its products with a choice of tough back panel materials. Normally, resistive touch screens are only mounted to a glass back panel, which, due to its fragility, is not always the ideal material in certain applications. However, following new developments, WASP can now offer the screens mounted on to acrylic and polyester.
