Chapter I · Philosophy

A philosophy of care

Some call us old fashioned, we call it caring
01

Some call us old fashioned, we call it caring

Stewart’s traditional approach means taking full responsibility for every screen it builds, and caring about the people who will sit in front of it for years to come.

Handcrafted from the molecular level

Production stays in-house from the very first step: raw plastic resins and pigments are formulated into screen fabric, then formed and fitted to frames built by the same team.

One screen does not fit all projection needs

One screen does not fit all projection needs

With more than 25 screen materials, every Stewart screen is custom built for its room, accounting for seating layout, throw distance and the amount of ambient light.

Uniformity and color accuracy are everything

Uniformity and color accuracy are everything

Color stays uniform from any seat in the room, and the surface reproduces exactly what the projector sends, without shifting or tinting the image.

We’re the reference screen

Major film studios rely on Stewart screens in post-production suites and screening rooms, where the image has to be judged exactly as the filmmaker intended.

Where other screens can develop visible seams over time, Stewart screens are made without them, even at sizes up to 40 × 90 feet.
