UL awards Samsung's laptop AMOLED displays with its GREENGUARD Gold Certificate for low chemical emissions

Samsung Display announced that its latest AMOLED laptop displays achieved UL's GREENGUARD Gold Certification for low chemical emissions. This is the first laptop display to achieve this certification (UL 2819).

This certification is awarded to products such as electronic and medical equipment that meet its volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and particle emission standards. With LCDs, the backlighting unit can be a major VOC origin due to its use of multiple plastic substrate sheets. According to UL, Samsung's OLED panels reduced the emission of VOCs to about half of LCD's emission.

Samsung says that UL tested nine SDC laptop AMOLED panels, ranging from 13.3-inch to 16-inch.
