Screen Excellence

Only the stupid never changes his mind!
Back in 2008, we made the decision to sell only complete projection screens, and not to make our projection fabrics available.
At the time, Screen Excellence was new on the market, and needed to build its brand. So, we made this choice for marketing reasons.
Eighteen years later, the market has changed, and our brand is now strongly established.
And there is a demand for our Enlightor and Visionaire projection surfaces. By the roll.
So, why not?
All our projection surfaces, and also our black backing layer fabric are now available.
Enquire Now!

BLACKROOM THEATERS in Dubai
Their client dreamed of a special place where his large family could come together, so we created a private cinema at the heart of the home’s unique central hub. Designed to impress, the room combines exceptional craftsmanship, elegant finishes, and a truly cinematic experience for both family and VIP guests.

The theater features image and sound from the same wall, with hidden Alcons 3-way speakers placed behind a 180" acoustically transparent Screen Excellence Reference screen, so the picture appears alone while the sound comes cleanly through. The 11.1.6 Atmos WaveForming system is powered by a 24-channel Trinnov Altitude processor. A Barco Freya projector and Screen Excellence Reference screen deliver a stunning native 4K RGB-laser image that feels bright, detailed, and beautifully natural.

Do you know the real effect of a Black Backing layer?

When a screen is "solid", i.e. not Acoustically Transparent (A.T.), it reflects somehow all the projector light if it is not grey. Still, some manufacturers provide a black surface on the rear side of the screen. Why is that?
Simply put, the screen material might not be 100% opaque. This translates into a contrast loss if there is ANY light coming from behind.

A checkerboard pattern projected to measure the real contrast ratio of a projector/screen combination

Now, looking at an A.T. screen, adding an A.T. black layer behind is crucial as the screen surface has some degree of visual transparency. The black backing layer absorbs the light coming from the rear, preventing the contrast loss.
Painting the rear wall in black can, to some extend, serve the same purpose.
BUT,
In real life, an ANSI checkerboard contrast measurement reveals a huge difference: Measured in the same conditions (with a black rear wall) , the contrast with and without Black Backing shows this: With black backing, it is nearly the double!
Our screens are provided with an A.T. Black Backing fabric as standard. It makes a difference.

Kind regards,

👉 A high-quality projection surface is just as important as the projector itself!

Even the most advanced projector will fall short if you’re projecting onto a non-optimal surface.

That’s why we’ve partnered with Screen Excellence and Stewart Filmscreen, two of the world’s leading projection screen brands. These companies produce premium, customizable screens designed to elevate any installation.
