How to choose the proper screen fabrics

Matt white

– The screen fabric matt white is undoubtedly the first choice

and guarantees bright, natural colours without a loss of intensity.

Datalux

– The screen fabric datalux was developed for special applications

that require a higher reflection value and a smaller viewing angle.
It is ideal for projection from the ceiling.

How to choose the proper type of screen

PROJECTION SCREENS

Which screen is to be preferred first of all depends on the application. For frequent shows in the same location a wall or ceiling screen - manually
or electrically operated, with or without frame - should be considered. For shows in different locations a tripod screen resp. a portabe screen is
the better solution.

Height of the screen
= one sixth of its distance to the last row of seats
Distance between the screen and the first row of seats
= height of the screen x 1.5
Minimum distance between the screen bottom and the floor
= 0.60 – 0.90 m for home cinema use
= 1.25 m if the audience is sitting
= 1.60 m if the audience is standing
