Samsung Display Solutions has announced its ultra-thin glass solution that can work as a cover window for foldable displays. The company built the 30-micrometer thick glass to be both flexible and durable, according to a press release.

Samsung will initially apply the UTG to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip smartphone. It worked with Bureau Vertias, an international certification agency in France, to test durability, according to the release.

"With our existing polyimide cover window, development of the new extremely flexible UTG cover window the Samsung UTG enables us to meet more demanding customer needs," Dennis Choi, vice president of the mobile display marketing team at Samsung Display, said in the release. "Clearly, Samsung UTG is a highly enticing manufacturing alternative which serves as another important example of our dedication to technology advancement and manufacturing excellence."
