What PALM TECHNOLOGY LTD does

Palm Technology Co., Ltd. (PalmTech) is a privately held Taiwanese manufacturer of custom LCD and OLED display modules founded in 2000, headquartered in Kaohsiung with manufacturing operations in Taiwan and mainland China. The company produces a six-technology portfolio including Monochrome Character LCD, Monochrome Graphic LCD, TFT LCD, OLED, Touch Panels (resistive and projected capacitive), and E-Paper Display Modules, spanning applications from 1.28 to 12.1 diagonal inches. Its manufacturing platform covers multiple bonding and mounting technologies — COB, COG, TAB, COF, and SMT — supported by a fully automated TFT-LCD production line installed in 2019. PalmTech holds ISO 9001, RoHS II, REACH, CE, and UL 1703 certifications, with named customers including ASUS (VivoWatch SP wearable health display modules) and Taiwan's public bicycle system.

The company operates a B2B direct-sales model with custom quote-based pricing, no public price tiers, and a multi-stage engagement cycle (drawing approval → sample → mass production) with lead times of 4-7 weeks for samples and 4-10 weeks for mass production. Sales are driven by trade-show presence (Electronica Munich 2018/2022/2024, FINETECH JAPAN, Electronica India) and direct inquiry via the corporate website, with dedicated sales contacts such as Ms. Tracy Tsai. Primary verticals are medical/healthcare wearables, industrial automation, automotive and mobility, and consumer electronics. Through wholly owned subsidiary Palm Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (established May 2018 in cooperation with a construction partner), PalmTech extends into Taiwan's solar PV market, offering rooftop and ground-mounted systems with PLC monitoring, having received the 2024 Kaohsiung Photovoltaic Smart Building Certification Bronze Award. The company has held a CRIF TOP5000 of Major Industries in Taiwan ranking for three consecutive years (2021-2023).
