German term or phrase: Display schonendes Material
Does anybody have anything snappy for this in English? It comes from an advert for a display case for an iPad Mini 2.

non-scratch material [to protect the display]
Explanation:
I understand this is to describe not a screen protector per se, but the material of the iPad case as a whole. The point is to assure users that when closing the iPad case the screen will not get damaged.

Other examples:

Just to clarify my interpretation: This is not about the iPad case protecting the display, but about preventing damage caused by the case.

Explanation:
For snappiness, I like the "no-scratch" wording in the link below even though I started scratching my head when I saw the "self-healing" part..

Guten Rutsch!
