In demanding industrial environments, durability isn't optional—it’s essential. For equipment operating in hazardous zones, achieving ATEX certification requires the entire system, including the display module, to meet strict mechanical standards. Among them, IK10 impact resistance is considered the highest benchmark for touchscreen protection.
At FANNAL, we specialize in rugged touchscreen display solutions. Our IK10 touchscreen modules are designed to withstand extreme physical impact, helping our customers build ATEX-certified equipment that is both safe and reliable.

Industrial-Grade IK10 Touchscreen — Proven 20-Joule Impact Resistance
Our custom touchscreens are built with 6mm thick tempered glass, designed and tested to pass IK10 standards, which equates to withstanding 20 joules of impact—equivalent to a 5kg object dropped from 40cm. This makes them ideal for environments prone to shock, scratches, or operator mishandling.
Yet at FANNAL, we believe high protection shouldn't compromise touch performance. That's why we focus equally on functionality:
✅ Accurate projected capacitive touch through 6mm glass
✅ Full glove operation support (suitable for industrial gloves)
✅ Consistent and responsive touch under high-frequency use

⚠️ Not Just IK10 — A Key to ATEX System Certification
It's important to clarify:
ATEX certification applies to the complete system, covering aspects like electrical safety, housing design, and heat control.
While FANNAL doesn’t provide full ATEX certification, we do offer IK10 display modules that help equipment manufacturers meet critical certification criteria. In many cases, the IK10-rated display is a key prerequisite in the ATEX compliance process.
We’re often asked:
“Can your touchscreen pass ATEX certification?”
Our honest answer:
No—because ATEX is for full systems. But our touchscreens meet the high-impact standards needed to support ATEX touch screen design.
Typical Use Cases：
ATEX display panels in oil & gas equipment
Mining control terminals
Railway and transportation dispatch consoles
Outdoor systems in extreme cold, wind, or rain
High-risk environments like prisons or military zones
In these applications, “just working” is not enough. What users truly need is an IK10 touchscreen that remains precise and reliable under extreme industrial conditions.
FANNAL: Focused on One Thing — A Better Industrial Touchscreen
At FANNAL, we don’t make full machines. We focus on one thing only: delivering more reliable industrial touchscreen modules.
This dedicated approach allows us to offer components that help our customers accelerate IK10 and ATEX system development with confidence.
