SCREENCO Buy BARCO D10 for Commonwealth Pool events.
Screenco have purchased an opening stock of Barco’s DLite 10 tiles — primarily for use in the new £32m Manchester Aquatics Centre for the upcoming Commonwealth Games swimming events.
The 144-tile order will give them a maximum 30 sq. metre presentation area, which will be split into three separate displays. Screenco also purchased additional rental structures to allow greater flexibility in creating non-standard shapes.In view of the humidity in the pool, one of the recommendations made by Screenco was the need for displays to be rated to IP65 for dust and water protection.
Confirmed Graham Andrews, Avesco plc Audio Visual Services Division managing director, “We chose the D10 on its price versus performance ratio and its IP65 front and rear characteristics, which make it ideal for the high degree of outdoor arena and stadium work in which we specialise.”
Summarised Ross Burling, Barco Business Development Manager, Media & Events, “Having worked for over a year with Creative Technology — another Avesco company — on our iLite products, we were delighted that Screenco won the Manchester contract.
"Historically, as the largest and longest-established rental company in their sector of the industry, Screenco have remained dominant. We are therefore proud to have secured what we hope will mark the start of a long business partnership with them."
