Ecco Cine Supply & Service installs Christie laser projectors in Germany’s largest multiplex

Cinecittà, Germany’s largest multiplex, has recently installed twelve RGB pure laser projectors from Christie, with more to follow. Ecco Cine Supply & Service supplied and installed the projectors. Cinecittà opened in 1995 in the heart of Nuremberg’s old town and has 24 screens. The multiplex is owned by the Weber family.

With Christie CP4435, CP4425, CP4420 and CP2415 RGB pure laser projection, the light output in the auditorium improved for both 2D and 3D content. The upgrading also reduced energy consumption by about 340,000 KWh per year, according to exhibitor Wolfram Weber. With energy costs on the rise, it was important to implement energy-efficient measures. Additionally, sustainability was considered in the decision-making process, as the new projectors no longer require xenon lamps, eliminating the need to dispose of consumables.

“We have been supporting Cinecittà for many years. In addition to Christie RGB pure laser projection, we have installed Christie Vive audio in the Cinecittà’s Cinemagnum auditorium”, says Thomas Rüttgers, Managing Director of Ecco Cine Supply & Service.

In addition to the installation of more laser projectors, Cinecittà has plans to convert more auditoriums to deluxe screens. “We currently have five deluxe screens, but the concept has been very well received by audiences and we still see room for improvement”, says Wolfram Weber.
