Samsung Display announced today that it has exceeded 300
million panels in cumulative OLED (Organic Light Emitting
Diode) panel production since mass production began in
January 2007.
Piling all 300 million Samsung OLED panels on top of one
another would equal more than 68 times the height of Mt.
Everest.
While it took Samsung Display four and a half years to
reach the initial 100 million production mark for OLED
panels, the next 100 million units were produced in just
eleven months, and the last 100 million units were
produced in only seven months.
Samsung Display held a ceremony to commemorate the 300
million production milestone today at Samsung Display City
located in Asan city, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea, which was
attended by its president and more than 300 other
employees.
Kinam Kim, the president and CEO of Samsung Display, said
at the ceremony, "After six years of nearly constant
production, we have achieved a monumental milestone in
producing 300 million panels, which represents the vast
majority of OLED panels produced during that time." He
added, "Samsung Display will accelerate its leadership in
OLED production by introducing the next generation OLED
technology, including large-sized TV panels and flexible
displays."
Samsung Display has 98 percent market share in the OLED
panel market. |
