‘Gorilla glass’ maker Corning bids to settle European Union antitrust case

Glass maker Corning has offered to scrap all exclusive clauses in its deals with mobile phone makers and raw glass processing companies to end an investigation, EU antitrust regulators said on Monday, a move which would stave off a possible hefty fine.

The U.S. company, which sells a break resistant glass used as a cover for mobile phones, tablets and smart watches under the Gorilla Glass brand, counts Samsung, Sony , Google, HP, Dell and Nokia as its customers. Apple is reportedly a customer too.
