An eInk device's screen is made up of several different layers. One of which is the actual eInk. The website doesn't give a lot of details from what I could see, but it sounds like they are talking about the plastic substrate and the technology to manufacture the backplane based on that new substrate material is what they have developed. Plastic Logic's new flexible backplane is then combined with a frontplane (such as the eInk that EInk Corp develops) to create a display.
