NEC's touchscreen overlays now TAA compliant

December 5, 2016

NEC Display Solutions of America has announced its touchscreen overlays designed by TSItouch for large format displays are compliant with the Trade Agreements Act. The TAA requires government groups to only purchase products made within the U.S. or TAA-approved countries, according to a press release.

The TAA's guidelines are designed to make sure the U.S. government supports goods through fair and open international trade.

"We're providing value to our customers by offering a touchscreen accessory that meets the Trade Agreements Act," Chris Feldman, product manager, NEC Display, said in the release. "Having a unique certification like this helps give NEC a market differentiator with a widely used technology, and since the touch overlays already carry the TAA-compliant label, it makes it easier to specify equipment for customers that require this compliance for their projects."

NEC received TAA compliance for seven of its touchscreen overlays, including the OL-E705, OL-V323-2, OL-V423, OL-V463, OL-V652, OL-V552 and OL-V801.

"We are now offering touchscreen overlay solutions that meet the requirements of the Trade Agreements Act," said Justin Fuss, creative director, TSItouch. "The vast majority of our touchscreen overlays are now approved to be acquired by the United States for government use."
