Hansol Chemical files complaint against TCL for violating Labeling Act

(Yonhap)

Hansol Chemical Co. has filed a complaint with the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) against Chinese TV manufacturer TCL for violating advertising law.

According to the company on Monday, Hansol Chemical discovered that some of TCL‘s QLED TV models did not actually contain quantum dot materials.

Hansol Chemical, a producer of quantum dot (QD) materials, noted that consumers typically associate QLED TVs with premium quality, as the term implies the use of quantum dots.

“This is a serious issue, as mislabeling products that don’t contain quantum dots as QLED TVs could damage overall consumer trust in the QLED products,” the company said.
