Lancome E-paper Signage Spotted in Tokyo Train

Friday Feb 27 2009 | 3 responsesE-paper in Advertising

A Lancome advertisement sporting an e-paper display was recently spotted in a Tokyo train. The display technology looks very similar to E Ink’s Ink In Motion. It seems the Japanese are embracing e-paper signage for advertising faster than anyone else. We will see more of this in the coming months. In addition to POP signage, e-paper is perfect for infrequently updated displays, such as train timetables, cinema listings and restaurant menus.

    Really cool to see. It is definately a step up from static print.

    For everyone working in advertising and direct marketing, the introduction of a cost-effective e-paper will revolutionise the industry the same way the internet has. In fact we could quickly see the lines blurring between the internet and what we now consider ‘printed communications’.
