In 2008, LG.Philips LCD changed its corporate name to LG Display , which is now making every effort to become a global display leader.

You will not find any products with "LG Display" brand name at a retail store. LG Display makes the TFT-LCD panels, and its customers manufacture consumer-focused products like LCD TVs, monitors, notebook computers and other various applications with LG Display's panels.
LG Display's product lines can be divided into four major categories including TFT-LCD panels for notebook computers, desktop monitors, LCD TVs and other special applications. TFT-LCD panels for notebook computers come in 13.3", 14.1", 17.1" and 20.1" sizes, while desktop monitor panels are available in 20", 22", 24" and 30" wide aspect ratio sizes. LCD TV panels come in 37", 42", 47" and 52". TFT-LCDs are also used for a broad range of special applications including car navigation systems, avionics, miniature notebook computers, hand-held computers and medical diagnostic machines. These applied products must adhere to very strict requirements for resistance to temperature extremes, humidity, vibration and shock. They must exhibit very high reliability and precision.

A TFT-LCD, or thin-film-transistor liquid crystal display, is a type of flat panel display that can be adapted for use in a wide variety of products including desktop and notebook computer monitors, HD TVs, mobile phones and a number of other devices. They are made by sandwiching liquid crystals, which can be manipulated to create images using electric charges, between two very thin sheets of glass substrate. Other components include a color filter, polarizer and backlight. These technology intensive products represent the next generation in displays. They are flat and thin, easy to transport, consume less power and create clearer images than previous technologies. Refer to the technology section of this website for more details.

LG Display does not produce consumer electronics products such as notebook computers or desktop monitors. The company is a maker of the display components used in notebook computers, desktop monitors, TVs and other products and systems. TFT-LCD panels produced by LG Display are delivered to customers worldwide, including global computer makers and home appliance companies. The panels are used in a variety of products such as TVs, monitors and notebook computers.

According to the US market research firm DisplaySearch, the flat panel display market is growing rapidly and is forecast to become a 100 billion dollar industry by 2010. In 2006, the TFT-LCD market amounted to almost 70 billion dollars in sales revenue and accounted for nearly 80% of the flat panel display market. Going forward, TFT-LCD is expected to maintain its position as the primary technology in the flat panel display market.
