KORTRIJK, Belgium – Dec. 5, 2023 — Cinionic, a Barco company and global leader in laser cinema, announced today that has teamed up with Sony Marketing Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Sony Marketing”) to bring laser projection to the cinema market in Japan. The companies are enabling the transition to laser with Barco Series 4 projectors in a cumulative total of 232 screens at TOHO Cinemas, with the installation of 85 units by the end of February 2024. TOHO Cinemas is one of Japan’s largest exhibitors with 705 screens across 75 locations, including five jointly operated cinemas with 56 screens.
The award-winning Barco Series 4 family delivers consistently brilliant images on-screen and carries industry-leading sustainability credentials to reduce the carbon footprint of cinema operations, an important priority to TOHO Cinemas. Among the sustainability initiatives set by the circuit is the reduction of the projector power consumption at its theaters. Together with Barco, Cinionic has also set clear environmental goals for 2024 and beyond to support the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
In 2019, Sony Marketing entered into a reseller agreement with Barco to introduce laser projectors for digital cinema. The companies’ work with TOHO Cinemas began in 2019, including the rollout of laser in 159 screens announced last year.
Today’s news comes as Cinionic invites the CineAsia Convention to feel the difference of its all-laser portfolio of cinema solutions, including the award-winning Barco Series 4 family, interactive displays, and live laser demos. Learn more at: www.cinionic.com/CineAsia-2023.
