• Premium screen material for bright, uniform images and wide viewing angles: The screen fabric used in the UTB Contour is engineered to deliver even brightness, accurate color, and wide viewing angles, ensuring the image remains consistent from any seat. The matte white surface minimizes hotspots and glare, supports high-contrast imagery, and maintains readability in varied lighting conditions throughout the room.
• Versatile installation and durable construction: The UTB Contour is built to withstand frequent use in professional environments.
