San Tan Valley, Arizona ( July 23, 2024 ) -

Severtson Screens (severtsonscreens.com), a global leader in innovative and quality projection screens for the cinema, commercial, pro AV, and home theater markets, is proud to announce that it will feature its most popular options for its acclaimed folded S?Vision 3D GX line with enhanced projection screen coating as well as its cinema screen “Price Estimator” during The Lagos International Film and Cinema Convention (LIFACC) Trade Show, held Aug. 1-3 in Lagos, Nigeria at EbonyLife Place. Severtson is also proud to announce that it is LIFACC’s official screen sponsor and will be providing its acclaimed SAT-4K cinema screen for all auditorium screenings during the show.

“Our folded shipping method makes international distribution of our industry-acclaimed S?Vision 3D GX highly affordable, reducing international shipping costs by up to 70 percent,” explained Toby Severtson, president and CEO of Severtson Corp. “Since its launch, we’ve had to renovate our facility and upgrade our machinery to keep up with worldwide demand.”

Severtson’s SAT-4K has received tremendous accolades since its debut. “We are proud to build upon its success with the next generation which features an even finer weave and whiter material that makes the viewing image even better than before,” added Severtson. “Made in the USA, the SAT-4K’s acoustic abilities are not hampered by the finer weave, and we can now also seam SAT-4K for larger cinema screens to virtually limitless sizes.”

Currently available, the SAT-4K cinema screen meets or exceeds all industry standards for optimum video and acoustic performance, with reference quality reproduction of the digital image combined with true fidelity of the original soundtrack.

Additional specifications include:

  • Surface: SAT-4K acoustically woven screen material
  • Gain: 1.18
  • Max height: 16 ft seamless; customizable to desired specifications with seams
  • Viewing Angle: 160 degrees
  • Flame and mildew resistant
  • Severtson Screens has been shipping foldable screens both domestically and internationally to very pleased customers who, up until recently, could not afford them because of the enormous international shipping fees. Now, Severtson’s screens can be folded and packed into a much smaller crate without any loss in structural integrity or performance abilities. Additionally, now there is a solution for complex installations where a long tube housing the cinema screen is impractical or not feasible to transport through the building.

    “Our folded screen technology has proven again and again to drastically reduce international shipping costs and makes these screens available to every customer worldwide,” explained Dan Maxwell, Severtson Corp. V.P. & Chief Operating Officer. “And to top that off, our new cinema screen price estimator enables our dealers with even quicker cinema screen price quotes and delivery estimates of both our folded and non-folded options.”

    The folded line of S?Vision 3D GX and Ultra Wide cinema screens are available for delivery to international destinations, having numerous advantages, including:

  • available in standard or micro perforation (white and silver)
  • coated surface that is harder to bruise and scuff
  • small micron flake coating produces a sharper image, eliminating graininess in bright scenes
  • viewing angles range from 30-40 degree half-gain depending on specific screen gain requested
  • water-based coating promotes longevity by maintaining optical properties over time
  • eliminating flaking and cracking of the screen surface
  • perfect for large cinema applications (movie houses, museums, universities, etc.)
  • “Do you already know exactly what you’re looking for in a cinema screen and want to know the price right away, any time of the day or night?” asked Severtson. “We’ve designed the price estimator to do just that for our dealer network. Simply log on to severtsonscreens.com/tools. After registering and logging in, dealers can instantly get quotes on the exact cinema screen they are looking for. This tool saves a lot of time for customers, especially with international orders. With this new tool, dealers can find out prices without having to speak with a sales representative or waiting for an email response.”

    Once the dealer is registered with an account and granted access at severtsonscreens.com/register, the tool provides product and packaging price estimates for Severtson cinema screens as soon as they input the necessary required information, such as screen dimensions, coating, material, and desired packaging. The packaging portion of the price estimate is then calculated based on the selected product’s weight and container dimensions, which the tool also provides. For each estimate requested, the customer will receive an automated email and PDF file detailing the screen price and packaging estimate. Prices are only estimates and do not include shipping charges or any other potential international fees.
