Abstract
A touch window may include a substrate, a sensing electrode disposed on the substrate to sense a position, and a protective layer on the sensing electrode. A touch device may include the touch window, and a driving part on the touch window. The substrate may include a first active area and a second active area. The second active area may be flexibly provided from the first active area. The sensing electrode may be provided on the substrate to sense a position. Moreover, the protective layer may be disposed in the second active area.
