Strong/MDI Screen Systems, a
Ballantyne Strong Inc. (NYSE American: BTN) company, and a leader in projection
screen manufacturing and optical coating development announced the release of a
new white gain coating technology designed to enhance 2D displays using
high-output projectors.
The formulation, developed by Strong/MDI’s R&D chemists, provides a
uniquely smooth, brilliant white surface, hence its property of diffusing light
more uniformly. Northview Horizon’s optical qualities include increased image depth as well as sharpness.
When combined with Strong/MDI’s new HP micro
perforation, the surface eliminates the probability of moiré interference in laser projection
systems. Northview Horizon’s improved
coating technology is highly durable and resistant, ensuring hassle free
installation and years of high-quality image reproduction.
“High gain coatings traditionally precipitate a
narrower viewing angle. Conversely, Northview Horizon’s improved light distribution qualities allows
exhibitors to reap all the benefits of higher gain without compromising image
quality” says Francois Barrette,
Vice-President and General Manager at Strong/MDI. “Exhibitors who choose to upgrade to a higher
gain Northview Horizon surface obtain a superior picture with reduced projector
output, resulting in a return on investment within an estimated 24-36 months.”

new Northview Horizon coating are invited to contact the sales team either by
