LG Display, based in Korea, is one of the world's largest display makers. LGD produces screens for TVs, laptops and mobile devices, focusing on OLED technologies.
LG Display is the world's leading OLED TV and monitor panel producer (based on its WOLED architecture). The company also produces flexible AMOLEDs for wearables, tablets and smartphones (branded as pOLEDs, and supplied to many companies including Apple). LG Display is also offering automotive OLED displays, transparent OLEDs, and is developing OLED microdisplays.
LG Display supplies WOLED TV panels in a wide range of sizes, from 42-inch to 97-inch, to many companies including Panasonic, LG Electronics, Sony, Philips, Loewe, JVC, Hisense, Konka and others. It is a main AMOLED supplier for Apple's smartwatch, mobile phones and tablet products. It is also considered to be the leading automotive OLED producer.
LG Display has been producing transparent OLEDs since 2019, when the company started commercial production of 55" FHD transparent OLEDs, finding small markets in signage, commercial, mobility and more. The company since expanded its range, although production volume is still limited.
Towards the end of 2015 LG Display acquired LG Chem's OLED lighting business unit for $135 million, but it later withdrew from the lighting market.
