Severtson Features New Giant QuickFold & Giant Electric Motorized Cinema Screens During ExpoCine 2018

Now available, QuickFold series screens can measure up to 500 inches and are the perfect solution for situations that require large, high quality commercial or cinema-sized screens, but not in a permanent static installation; SēVision 3D GX Giant Electric motorized projection cinema screens are ideal for large venues where a screen needs to be raised & lowered

Mesa, Arizona, Sept. 18, 2018 – Severtson Screens (www.severtsonscreens.com), a global leader in innovative and quality projection screens for the cinema, commercial, pro AV, and home theater markets, is proud to announce it will showcase its recently launched Giant QuickFold Screen Line and SēVision 3D GX Giant Electric Motorized Cinema Projection Screen line during ExpoCine 2018, held in São Paulo, Brazil from Oct. 2-5 at the Convention Center Frei Caneca, booth #s 44 & 45 alongside Bardan Cinema, Philips, Klipsch, and DepthQ.

“Our new QuickFold screens are easily portable that can be set up and taken down quick and easy,” explained Toby Severtson, president and CEO of Severtson Corp. “What makes them so unique and practical are the virtually limitless applications. It can be customized up to 500-inches (41.7 ft.) diagonally, making them the ideal solution for multi-purpose auditoriums, such as in commercial, university/school, house of worship, museum, and pro AV situations that require large commercial or cinema-sized screens, but not in a permanent static installation.”

Severtson’s Giant QuickFold Screen Line includes dual frame construction for superior support and to prevent hour-glassing of the screen. Additional options include choice of multiple perforations, Silver 3D and Stellar White gains, and dress kits.

“The screens break down into a custom-built case depending on the size of the screen, thus making them incredibly portable,” added Severtson. “Our revolutionary coating allows the screens to be folded both for shipping and then for regular use. It’s the perfect answer for what was once an impossible scenario for a large format cinematic 3D screen.”

Severtson’s SēVision 3D GX Giant Electric motorized cinema projection screens are available up to 12 meters wide.

“Our wildly popular giant SēVision 3D GX projection screens are ideal for large venues where the screen needs raised and lowered, such as in an opera or play house with a large stage environment,” explained Severtson. “It’s also the perfect solution for multi-purpose auditoriums, such as in commercial, university/school, house of worship, museum, and pro AV situations that require large commercial or cinema-sized screens, but also not in a permanent static installation.”

The Giant Electric motorized projection screens are available in all offered gain levels as well as in non-perf, cinema (standard) perf, and microperf so the soundstage can be placed behind the screen similar to premier movie theatres.

“The SēVision 3D GX Giant Electric Motorized projection screens were the first giant electric high quality 3D screens available on the market at these larger cinematic sizes,” Severtson continued. “Due to our folded screen technology and coating, it has enabled us to create an electric cinema screen that can be rolled up and down frequently without damaging the screen’s surface. It’s the perfect answer for what was once an impossible scenario for a large format cinematic 3D screen.”

Additional specifications of the new SēVision 3D GX Giant Electric Motorized Cinema Projection Screen line include:

• coated surface that is harder to bruise and scuff
• small micron flake coating produces a sharper image, eliminating graininess in bright scenes
• viewing angles range from 30 to 40 degree half-gain depending on the specific screen gain requested
• water-based coating promotes longevity by maintaining optical properties over time, eliminating flaking and cracking of the screen surface allowing the screen to remain perfect for frequent rolling up/down
