Absen signs partners for TheStadiumBusiness Summit

Absen Europe is set to sponsor and exhibit at TheStadiumBusiness Summit, taking place June 12-13 at Emirates Old Trafford Stadium in Manchester, UK. Absen Europe looks forward to meeting current and future customers at the largest dedicated meeting of owners, operators and developers of the world’s leading stadiums, arenas and major sports venues, to further build its brand reputation in what has become a key sector for the leading manufacturer of quality LED displays.

Together with its partners Goalsport and Ashleigh Signs, Absen Europe will demonstrate on Pod 123 the full capabilities of its range of stadia-dedicated LED display solutions, and how they are perfectly suited to this sector. The trio has established pedigree in the sports market – having recently successfully installed LED display screens at Belfast’s National Football Stadium at Windsor Park as well as English Premier League team Burnley’s stadium, Turf Moor.

Absen has also entered into a significant agreement to be the official provider of LED perimeter solutions for the Chinese Super League (CSL) – and now looks to raise awareness of its unique range of products and help major venues around the world benefit from their visual solutions.

Visitors to TheStadiumBusiness Summit are invited to join the Absen Europe team at Pod 123 for product demonstrations. The Pod will showcase the Absen XD Series (XD10 and XD6) outdoor fixed LED display for large screens, scoreboards and fascia boards; the Acclaim Series for indoor meeting rooms, boardrooms and hospitality areas and the Absen A97 pitch side perimeter LED banner – all of which harness Absen’s LED expertise and are geared towards the needs of a stadium environment.

Boasting a 10mm and 6.66mm pixel pitch respectively, the XD10 and XD6 models feature 6000 nits of brightness, 120 degrees of horizontal viewing angle and real-time monitoring (from PC, tablets and smartphones), giving the user complete control locally or remotely. With a thickness of just 106mm and weighing only 21kg, the panels are thin and light, saving on installation space where it is at a premium, and making delivery and installation convenient and easy. Front and rear servicing make the IP65/54 waterproof modules easily accessible for maintenance.

For indoor requirements, the four models in the Absen Acclaim Series come in a standard 16:9 (27.5”) size, making it easy to swap old LCD screens to achieve outstanding image quality with high brightness and contrast. With its shallow depth and standard video input (HDMI), Acclaim is the perfect stadium solution for meeting rooms and hospitality areas. Completing the suite of sports venue products is the A97 perimeter product. With its large 160 degree viewing angle, waterproof design and front and rear servicing, this 10mm pixel pitch, 5,500 nit LED perimeter screen makes a real impression in a pitch side setting.

Alongside its product showcase, Absen will collaborate with systems integrator Ashleigh Signs, and sports content management software provider Goalsport on the Pod – further demonstrating its commitment to the sports industry by offering a complete end to end solution alongside its trusted partners. As a systems integrator, Ashleigh Signs supports on the design, build, fabrication, integration, installation and service contracts for projects – partnering with Absen for LED displays and Goalsport as its preferred software provider. Goalsport’s software will also be showcased at the Pod.

Ross Burling, Absen Europe’s UK, Ireland & Nordics business development manager, said: “We’ve set our sights on the sports market and have big ambitions for the sector. We know we have a superior product offering which is truly tailored to the unique requirements of the stadium environment. Not only that, but our products are renowned for their high quality and reliability at a competitive price point.”

Burling added: “Coming together with great partners like Ashleigh Signs and Goalsport uniquely positions us to provide the best solutions to the industry. We’re looking forward to building new contacts and relationships and working with our customers to develop world-class LED solutions for their sports venues.”
