Newtown, Pa. – NuShield, Inc., the leading manufacturer of non-adhesive, screen protectors now offers an overlay film that protects the LCD display of POS devices used by restaurants and convenience stores. These devices are being installed by an increasing number of establishments where waiters and clerks key in the orders on the LCD touch screen display monitor and the information is printed out in the kitchen.

The protective coating on the LCD display monitor is not strong enough to withstand scratches made by pencils, pens, fingernails or other sharp objects over an extended time period. Repetitive tapping can also decrease the sensitivity and make the screen malfunction. The cost to replace these displays is high, especially when the monitors are past warranty.

NuShield is made from a super-thin material and provides excellent touch and stylus response. Unlike vinyl-based products that cling or adhere to the device, NuShield films provide long lasting protection under extreme temperatures and are better suited to protect against chemical contact. One of the main features of the NuShield film is that it can be removed, cleaned and reinstalled to extend the life cycle of the film. NuShield films can provide screen protection over one year under normal use.

The patented technology developed by NuShield makes our overlay films abrasion and chemical resistant. They are designed to protect the LCD display monitor not just from scratches, but from unattractive fingerprint marks, smudges, and spills that can cause operating problems. There are two types of film available; the clear film provides the strongest protection against scratches and an anti-glare film that allows the POS display information to be seen outdoors.
