Dragontrail, manufactured by Asahi Glass Co., is an alkali-aluminosilicate sheet glass engineered for a combination of thinness, lightness and damage-resistance, similar to the Gorilla Glass by Corning Incorporated.

The material's primary properties are its strength, allowing thin glass without fragility, its high scratch resistance and its hardness – with a Vickers hardness test rating of 595 to 673.[1]

Dragontrail was launched in 2011[2] and is used by the Sony Xperia Z[3], Sony Ericsson Xperia active, Xiaomi MI2, Galaxy Nexus and i-mobile IQ6 smartphones.[citation needed]
