SIM2 UK to distribute SmX projection screens in UK and Europe (8/5/2008)

SIM2 UK Ltd has just announced that it will be the exclusive distributor of SmX projection screens for the UK and Europe. This takes effect from 1st May 2008. SIM2 will be responsible for the company's Pro-Mask, Pro-Curv, Pro-Line and Pro-Curv Mask projection screen product ranges.

SmX, after carrying out extensive research into acoustically-transparent screen materials, developed Cineweave HD, a unique solution for this specialist application. This exclusive patent-pending material addresses the shortcomings of both perforated and woven screen materials - moiré patterning, narrow viewing angle, loss of screen gain and non-linear audio response - at a stroke. This is the reason why SmX screens are used by top post-production facilities in Hollywood and home cinema enthusiasts alike.

The SmX projection screen range includes, the Pro-Line and Pro-Curv fixed-frame models, which utilise a unique patent-pending screen-framing system. They also feature genuine black-velvet trimming (demonstrably superior to other flocked materials), unique acoustic insulation, and an innovative screen mounting system for fast, easy
on-site adjustment to counteract moiré with all digital projectors.

SmX has also developed the versatile Pro-Mask and Pro-Mask Curv series, the first screen masking system to offer up to six aspect-ratio settings and a unique fixed-curved screen system for dramatic, Cinemascope-like screen installations.

The SmX screen range further strengthens the portfolio of products offered by SIM2 UK Ltd - SIM2 (projectors), Da-Lite (projection screens), ISCO Optics (anamorphic lenses), Panamorph (anamorphic solutions), Cineslide (motorised lens systems) and ATC (loudspeakers) - making it an even more powerful proposition for the UK home cinema market.
