Severtson Screens will show its recently launched white, perforated, acoustically transparent screen option for its Broadway Thin Bezel Series fixed frame projection screen solutions during CEDIA Expo 2026.
The acoustically transparent option is available in seven screen sizes from 100 inches up to 165 inches. Each model comes with a sturdy extruded aluminum frame with a 3/8-inch visible border for a maximized viewing area. They are designed for home theatres, offices, conference rooms, sports bars, or other similar venues.
Material choices for the Broadway Thin Bezel Series include the Broadway White with 1.1 gain and smooth vinyl with a white front and black back. The screen surface provides a wide 120 degree viewing angle. This option is good for situations with well controlled ambient light, and where a wide viewing angle is required. It comes in perforated version in multiple sizes.
There’s also the Broadway Grey with 1.0 gain, smooth grey vinyl with a black back. This screen surface provides a higher contrast, ideal for situations where there is more ambient light, and a wide viewing angle is desired.
Also, in response to recent shipping and logistical issues, six-piece frames will be Severtson’s new standard moving forward. This will help to reduce shipping damages and provide a better experience for customers. The change will occur gradually over the coming months as supply of four-piece frames is depleted. Four-piece frames will still be available on custom orders, with a lead time.
Finally, in recent years, the standard aspect ratios have shifted gradually wider. Movies are now almost exclusively produced at 2.39 or 2.40 aspect ratios. As a result, Severtson will be retiring the 2.35:1 aspect ratio as its standard and migrating to 2.39:1.
2.35 screens will be shipped until Severtson’s supply is exhausted. 2.35 will still be available on custom orders, with a lead time. The prices and standard diagonal sizes will remain the same, only changing the aspect ratio. The new 2.39 drawings are currently available on the company’s website.
