scratchproof

/skɹˈætʃpɹuf/ adj

Resistant to being scratched.

Word Origin Proof comes from Latin probare 'to test, prove' — so scratchproof literally means 'tested against scratches.' The word proof in compounds like waterproof and bulletproof carries that sense of having passed a test. Scratch itself is from Middle English scracchen, probably imitative of the sound. So scratchproof is a great example of a word that says 'we've tested it, it won't scratch.'
