Strong/MDI HGA React Screen to Be Primary Display at the 2023 Munich Film Week

STRONG/MDI Screen Systems, Inc. (“STRONG/MDI”) a wholly-owned subsidiary of FG Group Holdings Inc. (“FG Group Holdings”) (NYSE American: FGH) and a leader in manufacturing state-of-the-art cinema screens, in partnership with ECCO Cine Supply and Service, announces that Strong/MDI’s new HGA ReAct screen will be showcased at the 2023 Munich Film Week to be held the last week of January 24-27, 2023. STRONG/MDI and ECCO will team up to bring the new HGA ReAct screen to the Kinopolis Mathäser Big Theater.

“We, at Kinopolis, are happy to have another STRONG/MDI screen in our circuit. We recognize the importance of combining new laser projectors with the right screen, to offer the ultimate movie experience,” stated Jan Harmsen, head of projection technology at Kinopolis. “Strong MDI’s big selection of screen gains and perforations help us to display the full RGG-Laser quality.“

“For STRONG/MDI, Kinopolis is a wonderful showcase and a reference, as we keep aiming at excellence in projection quality for all moviegoers. Teaming up with the experts at ECCO to make it happen is a recipe for success,” commented Ray Boegner, President of Strong Entertainment.

“Having a new premium screen during the Film Week in Munich is a great start for Strong-MDI products also supported by our company,” says Thomas Rüttgers, Managing Director at Ecco Cine Supply and Service. “Since 2022, we have been cooperating with Strong MDI Screens. With their new finishing facility in Belgium, even PLF screens can now be delivered in continental Europe, which eliminates logistical issues and ensures safe transports from door to door. “
