Rancho Cordova, Calif., USA - 3 May 2012 - Barco, the
global digital cinema technology leader, has completed
installation of 26 DLP Cinema® projectors in Polson
Theatre's 11 sites located throughout Montana.
Because the Polson Theatre circuit is spread across many
small towns throughout the state, the owners wanted to
maintain a high degree of self-sufficiency with their
projectors. Three of the principals completed Barco's industry-leading
training and certification program so they could handle the
maintenance, service and repair needs quickly and
efficiently at each theater location. "We are very happy
with the service and support that we have received from
Barco," continued Dupuis. "We've been able to resolve any
glitches onsite by ourselves and have been able to do so
very quickly."
"When we met the Pickerell and Dupuis families about five
years ago, they were very careful and deliberate about
converting to digital," commented Terri Westhafer, Director
of Business Development Digital Cinema for Barco North
America. "Their desire to achieve certification with their
Barco projectors reflects their commitment to maintaining
outstanding screen presentation. We are proud they
chose to convert their entire circuit to Barco, and we look
forward to a long and mutually prosperous relationship with
them."
