3M, 3M Innovative Properties Co. and Cinotop Electronics Co.,
Ltd. have reached a patent license agreement for use of 3M’s metal
mesh technology.
Metal mesh conductor technology is widely used in the
construction of projected capacitive touch sensors for consumer and
commercial applications. Metal mesh conductors have broad
applicability across touch sensors of all sizes. In particular,
large format touch sensors are often utilized in interactive
whiteboards, conferencing systems and digital signage displays.
As part of the agreement, Cinotop, a leading provider of metal
mesh conductor film for consumer and commercial applications, has
taken a royalty-bearing patent license from 3M.
“We are pleased to add Cinotop to our growing list of
licensees,” said Makoto Ishii, vice president, 3M Display Materials
and Systems Division. “We will continue to expand our licensing
initiative to enable authorized use of our patented technology by
more customers as we defend our intellectual property rights
against unauthorized use by metal mesh manufacturers.”
“Cinotop, as a quickly growing company, values intellectual
property and we are proud to be the first Chinese metal mesh
manufacturer to obtain a license from 3M,” said Su Wei, chairman of
Cinotop Electronics. “The 3M license provides Cinotop and our
customers with the confidence to fuel our continued expansion.”
