Christie has signed a UK distribution deal with Habitech that covers its 4K range of high-end projectors (both DCI and non-DCI compliant).
Miles Donovan, senior channel development manager, EMEA, at Christie [pictured above, left] said: “We are delighted to partner with Habitech in the home cinema sector.
“They have a great reputation in the home cinema and custom installation markets and a strong track record of delivering success for their brands. With our cinema heritage, we wanted to find a partner that would be a good fit for us – and in partnering with Habitech, I think we’ve achieved that.”
Timmi Thorsen, sales director of Habitech [pictured above, right], said: “[Christie’s] working relationships with Hollywood directors such as James Cameron and Ang Lee over the years, speaks volumes to their matchless quality and cinema performance. We think there’s a real appetite amongst the home cinema community to embrace the very best in projection, and with Christie, that’s what we’ll be offering our customers.”
Under the terms of the agreement, Habitech will be responsible for distributing Christie’s M 4K25 RGB, as well as other 4K projectors in the manufacturer’s portfolio. The two companies are also working on a joint home cinema training programme for UK dealers.
