The group equipped three sites with
Sony Digital Cinema 4K systems
The digital rollout continues gaining ground in the Netherlands.
After Jogchem’s Theaters B.V., another large cinema circuit
in Holland, announced to install digital cinema systems at
its 60 cinemas together with FTT Filmtronics B.V., the Dutch
FTT branch, last month, Wolff Cinema Groep decided to equip
four sites with 4K systems of Sony.
Mustsee Euroborg in Groningen was equipped with two Sony SRX-R320
projectors and LMT-300 media blocks, the sites Cinema de Graaf
in Huizen close to Amsterdam and CineStar Enschede close to
the German border each received another unit.
The complete installation was carried out by FTT Filmtronics
who was also in charge of the test installations at several
Mustsee locations for the groups Minerva and Wolff and has
actively launched Sony 4K systems onto the Dutch market for
more than one year already. Two Sony systems had already been
installed at Cinecity in Vlissingen in the Southwest of the
Netherlands.
All installations also include the possibility to play out
“3D on 4K” content.
Jordi Wientjes, member of the board of management of Wolff
Cinema Groep, said: “We have addressed the topic of digital
cinema at a very early stage already and now opted for Sony
4K as we are simply convinced with the technology. We think
that this was the right time to deploy some of our core locations
in order to be well prepared for the upcoming blockbusters.”
Thomas Rüttgers, Chairman of the board of management
of FTT group added: “From the very beginning, we have
already been co-operating with Wolff Cinemas in the field
of digital cinema and have also installed 35mm equipment at
many sites as e.g. at Mustsee in Groningen. For us, this step
is another important benchmark for the digital rollout in
the Netherlands and we are very happy that we are able to
continue our excellent co-operation with Wolff Cinemas.”
