Absolics/Covington glass substrate plant

SKC's goal of the world's first commercial glass substrate production by end-2026 slipped, which Business Post attributed to changing customer requirements. SKC is supplying prototypes to several North American big tech firms, plans final reliability testing in 2026 and full-scale production in 2027.

• Evaluation samples went to global customers from April 2026.
• SKC has posted 15 straight quarterly operating losses since Q4 2023.
• Samsung Electro-Mechanics and LG Innotek target production after 2027.
