How do manufacturers ensure their products are resistant to scratches and abrasions?

Manufacturers employ various strategies to enhance the scratch and abrasion resistance of their products, ensuring long-term durability and customer satisfaction. One common method involves using high-quality materials such as hardened plastics, tempered glass, or reinforced metals that naturally resist wear. Additionally, protective coatings like ceramic, polyurethane, or diamond-like carbon (DLC) are applied to surfaces to create a barrier against scratches. Advanced manufacturing techniques, including laser etching and chemical treatments, further improve resistance. Rigorous testing, such as Taber abrasion tests, ensures products meet industry standards. By combining these approaches, manufacturers deliver products that withstand daily wear and tear while maintaining aesthetic appeal.
