PROJECTION FILMS

A huge panoramic projection with mountains right in front of us. Every rocky peak is pin sharp, the snowfields glisten in the sun. The view of the airy peaks almost makes you feel slightly dizzy, the illusion is so wonderful. This is how the perfect interplay of projectors and Gerriet's projection screens works. Immersive worlds despite solid ground underfoot for fascinating and high-quality image and film productions, allowing perfect perception to grow into an illusion and fascinate. High-quality projection screens that redefine horizons and images - anytime and anywhere.

GAMMALUX DUO front projection screen

GAMMALUX DUO is a double-sided front projection screen that is 98 % light-tight and laminated. It consists of two laminated films with a grey backing and is suitable for all types of front projection, including soft edge projection. The film is used in stretched or traverse frames and as a large-area projection film, also temporarily in front of window fronts. With good elasticity, it offers a higher black level for text presentations on the grey side and high-quality projections for cinema and home cinema on the white side. It is ideal for presentations with a high proportion of scattered light and offers very good contrast, even for dome and cupola projections.

GAMMALUX DUO MICRO front projection screen

GAMMALUX DUO MICRO, which can be used on both sides, has the same properties as GAMMALUX DUO, but is perforated and therefore not light-tight. With 300,000 holes per square metre and an open area of around 6%, it is ideal for cinema and home cinema applications with loudspeakers behind the projection screen. The micro-perforation is barely visible from a short distance. White side: High-end front projection screen for cinema and home cinema. Grey side: Ideal for presentations with a high proportion of scattered light and very good contrast. Often used in stretcher and truss frames.

SCENE front projection screen

SCENE is a robust, 100% light-proof front projection screen with a white projection side and a black back. Ideal for truss frames, stretcher frames or theatre hoists, it is suitable for softedge with good luminance distribution. Due to its high dimensional stability, it is also used in MEGASCREENS. The SCENE film can be used as an effect film by projecting it onto the black reverse side.

Projection film SC ENE GELOCHT

The SCENE GELOCHT front projection film has the same properties and areas of application as the SCENE, but is perforated and therefore not light-proof. With 57,000 holes per square metre, 1.25 mm hole diameter and 7 % open area, it appears closed even from a few metres away. For shorter viewing distances, we recommend a micro-perforated film.

OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 front projection fil m

OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 is the classic Gerriets projection screen, which is a non-lightproof, pure white front projection screen with a luminance factor of ß = 0.98. It is a robust all-round film that is suitable for both full-screen and soft-edge projection and is therefore popular for use in theatres and cinemas.

Front projection screen OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 PITCHE D

The front projection screen OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 PITCHED is comparable to the OPERA WEIẞ 2.2, but with additional perforations for sound transmission. It is often used in cinemas or home cinemas when speakers are positioned behind the projection surface and the viewing distance is large enough for the holes to be unrecognisable. With a perforation of 57,000 holes per square metre, a hole diameter of 1.25 mm and an open area of approx. 7%, the perforated film has a closed effect even at a distance of a few metres. For shorter viewing distances, we recommend the use of a micro-perforated film.

OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 MICRO front projection fil m

The OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 MICRO is a micro-perforated version of the OPERA WEIẞ 2.2, ideal for cinema and home cinema areas with loudspeakers behind the projection surface. It has 300,000 holes per square metre, a hole diameter of 0.50 mm and approx. 6 % open area, making it appear closed from just a few metres away. It is used when the viewing distance is not great enough for the more favourable OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 GELOCHT.

OPERA HIGH GAIN front projection screen

The front side of the OPERA HIGH GAIN is mother-of-pearl coloured, 99 % light-tight and can be used for a range of 3D projection types. The mother-of-pearl side has the best known reflection value on the market with a surprisingly good luminance distribution.

SILVERBLACK front projection film

The front side of SILVERBLACK is silver-coloured, 100 % light-tight and well suited for 3D or effect projections. the silver-coloured side has a good luminance distribution. Thanks to its very good contrast ratio, SILVERBLACK is also ideal for cinema and home cinema applications.

Front and rear projection screen OPERA MILCHIG**MATT 2.**2 OPERA MILCHIG MATT 2.2 offers excellent luminance distribution, robust construction and good durability. It is suitable as an all-round film and illuminated stage backdrop. Ideal for softedge projections.

Front and rear projection screen OPERA LIGHT BLUE 2.2

The OPERA LIGHT BLUE 2.2 is versatile for front and rear projection and offers similar properties to the OPERA MILK MATT 2.2. It has a slightly cooler colour tone and offers a slightly more true-colour image with an excellent viewing angle for front projection. For rear projections, it has a similar luminance factor to the MILCHIG MATT 2.2 and is also suitable for soft-edge projections.

SHOW 2.2 front and rear projection screen

SHOW 2.2 is extremely resistant to scattered and ambient light and is perfect for high-contrast effect projections. It offers brilliant images and creates a strong depth effect. Ideal for stage backdrops and narrow viewing angles, as well as for laser projections and subtitling systems. Not suitable for softedge projections.

STUDIO 2.2 front and rear projection screen

STUDIO 2.2 is mainly used in the theatre and opera sector. It is insensitive to scattered and ambient light and offers good light distribution. Thanks to its high diffusion performance, it is ideal for soft-edge projections and as an illuminated background for lighting effects.

EVEN front and rear projection screen

EVEN is the brightest and most reliable projection screen for high-quality softedge projections, specially developed for such applications. Also suitable for full-size projections. Thanks to the higher luminance factor in rear projection compared to OPERA MILKIG MATT 2.2, the number of projectors can be significantly reduced without compromising the softedge quality. Luminance values in front and rear projection are almost identical.

Front and rear projection screen OPTIBLACK 2. 2

OPTIBLACK 2.2 is a front and rear projection screen with high homogeneity and ideal luminance distribution, specially developed for softedge projections. It offers no hotspot, a great viewing angle and is perfect for 4K projections. Its almost black colour makes it virtually invisible without an image and insensitive to scattered and ambient light. Also ideal for soft-edge projections in 4K quality with a wide viewing angle.

Rear projection screen PANORAMA

With a width of 3.05 metres, PANORAMA is ideal for seamless 4:3 and 16:9 formats. It is a very translucent, high-contrast rear projection screen and is less sensitive to scattered and ambient light. PANORAMA is best used for full-size projections. For soft-edge projections, short distances between the projector and projection screen should be avoided.

OPTITRANS rear projection screen

The colour-neutral OPTITRANS projection screen has an excellent light output in a fairly wide core range of the viewing angle. The image quality is excellent, with very good contrast and a very clear appearance. One of the best projection screens for full screen projection on the market!

OPTILUX rear projection screen

The OPTILUX rear projection screen is the slightly cheaper version of OPTITRANS but with similar properties. OPTILUX is slightly darker than OPTITRANS and therefore reacts less to scattered and ambient light, while at the same time having very good light properties in the core area of the viewing angle. The contrast is good and the brightness of the OPTILUX projection is slightly lower than that of the OPTITRANS.

TRANSMISSION rear projection screen

TRANSMISSION was specially developed for LED backlighting. It enables the smallest distances of approx. 10-15 cm to the LED wall. Due to the extremely good diffusion performance, individual LED pixels are almost unrecognisable. This is why TRANSMISSION is used in many new studio buildings worldwide. Depending on the LED technology used, it is also suitable for chroma key punching or as a green or blue box. It can also be used as a projection screen for rear projections, but is very sensitive due to its very high brightness combined with high diffusion performance, especially in the transition areas for soft-edge projections.

Special film ARENA 86

This special film is a mesh-reinforced projection film that is suitable for outdoor use. Due to the very fine mesh, the mesh fabric is also relatively insensitive to the so-called "moiré effect". The surface of ARENA 86 offers a very good viewing angle. Thanks to its good permeability, the film is also suitable for use as a mesh in front of loudspeakers. ARENA 86 is also very popular for digital printing and can be used for open-air stages, for example.

Special film FROST

PVC diffusion film with frost effect, which is often used in front of LED walls. The frost effect causes the film to reflect the light aspects of the projected media, while the darker aspects tend to remain in the background. This creates a beautiful three-dimensional effect. The frost film is a pure diffusion and effect film and therefore not a true projection film.

Special film OPERA 2.2 PRINT

Our OPERA MILK MATT 2.2 projection film can be digitally printed and used, for example, on large and small stages as a photorealistic stage brochure or as a printed projection surface in sophisticated exhibition stand construction.

Stage and theatre

Gerriets was the first manufacturer of PVC projection screens for opera houses and theatres. OPERA films are synonymous with high-quality projection screens. Milky matt or light blue OPERA films are frequently used, as well as technical developments such as the EVEN film. For optimum sound transmission, there are perforated films such as OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 GELOCHT and GAMMALUX DUO MICRO. SHOW 2.2 and OPTIBLACK 2.2 are ideal as effect and soft-edge projection films.

TV studios

In TV studios, semi-transparent projection screens serve as a background horizon that can be illuminated evenly from the front and rear. For larger distances, rear projection screens such as OPTITRANS or OPTILUX from Gerriets, which allow a lot of light through, are suitable. TRANSMISSION rear projection screens are ideal for smaller distances of around 20 cm or less. It offers a high luminance factor and uniform light distribution, prevents pixelation and ensures even illumination.

Virtual studios

For virtual studios, projection screens must provide uniform illumination at low lux values to enable individual lighting of the actors and minimise shadows. Backlit films such as TRANSMISSION or OPTILUX often reduce the so-called green spill effect and make it easier to illuminate the scene from the front. Even at 4K or 8K resolution, Gerriets' fine seams do not impair the image.

Special stage effects and laser shows

Laser shows require projection textiles to show the end of the laser beam. Gerriets laser gauze has been specially developed for this purpose: invisible in the dark, highly transparent and ideal for laser shows. Other textiles such as heirloom grommets or tapestry grommets, commonly used in the opera and theatre sector, also enable special effects to be created for laser shows.

Large halls

For events in halls, the interference light factor is crucial, as show lights and LED spotlights can influence the projection image. A suitable projection screen must therefore be moderate in terms of reflection in order to minimise interfering light effects. The robust SCENE is often used for front projections, while dark rear projection films such as OPTITRANS or OPTIBLACK 2.2 are favoured for rear projections. These films reduce reflections from interfering light from the front. Bright projectors are recommended to ensure sufficient brightness.

Open-air events

Open-air events pose various challenges for projections, such as loss of contrast due to daylight, wind loads and weather conditions. Stage designers should take this into account when selecting projection screens. Front or rear projections can be used as required, ideally at the back of the stage to avoid direct sunlight. Suitable films for this are SCENE for front projection, OPTILUX or EVEN for rear projection and ARENA 86 for both. These films help to minimise interfering light effects. Special systems such as the inflatable projection system from Airscreen, which uses the SCENE film, are suitable for public viewing.

Trade fairs and promotional appearances

The requirements for presentations in trade fair construction vary greatly, from simple exhibition wall panelling to effective backlighting and rear or front projection of animations and advertising films. Opera films offer a wide range of possibilities for attracting interested parties. The choice of projection film takes into account not only optical and technical properties, but also seamless height and width, as in the case of the PANORAMA rear projection film with a height of 3.05 metres and almost infinite width. OPERA PRINT is suitable as a printed projection film for effective backlighting and is often used as an advertising and design element in exhibition stand construction. All the projection surfaces described can be used in exhibition stand construction.

Schools or universities, companies, seminar and conference rooms

The GAMMALUX DUO front projection screen from Gerriets is suitable for use in conference rooms or lecture theatres with approx. 200 lux lighting. It minimises interfering light reflections and improves the black level, especially for text-heavy presentations. In rooms that can be darkened, roller screens with white, fabric-reinforced front projection film are often used.

Private households and home cinema

Large screens are becoming increasingly popular in private households, either as living room screens or in home cinemas. Projector screens and projectors offer a cost-effective way of setting up a real home cinema. For example, OPERA WEIẞ 2.2 projection screens or SILVERBLACK for more contrast are ideal for the best price-performance ratio. OPERA HIGH GAIN is often used for weaker projectors.
