| Description | MaxWhite® is the most versatile screen surface for front projection presentations. This material provides a wide viewing angle with perfect diffusion uniformity while delivering radiant images and color reproduction | MaxWhite® FG is fiber glass backed for added stiffness which provides the strong durability and is tearproof. This material has uniform diffusion, excellent color reproduction and black & white contrast. | CineWhite® has a broad light dispersion through diffusion uniformity. It enhances black & white levels while colors remain neutral. Perfectly flat projection material for the most demanding applications. | WraithVeil® is our rear projection screen material. It has a high gain performance for applications with high levels of ambient light. Its special surface coating enhances color reproduction. | The WraithVeil® Dual is a front/rear projection material designed to accommodate both projection methods. This 2-in-1 material eliminates the need to swap out the viewing surface which makes this a very versatile product. | CLR® is a ceiling light-rejecting front projection material designed specifically for tabletop-mounted ultra-short-throw projectors. The CLR® features a multilayer optical lens structure that absorbs light from above while providing a clear image. This allows the picture to be free from washing out the projected image. |
