The Next Chapter for The Screen Works: Innovation, Partnership, and Possibility

A Legacy of Quality

Founded in 1959,  The Screen Works  has been a trusted partner in the professional AV industry for more than six decades—manufacturing large-format projection screens for events, classrooms, and venues across the country. Our products have been on stages, in boardrooms, and at countless gatherings where clarity and quality matters most.

That legacy of craftsmanship and reliability isn’t going anywhere. But as of 2025,  The Screen Works  is under new ownership—bringing a renewed focus on innovation, flexibility, and true partnership with our clients.

Why This Change Matters for You

• Continuity You Can Trust –  The same team of skilled craftspeople continues to build every frame and surface with care right here in Chicago. You can expect the same durability, precision, and attention to detail that The Screen Works has always delivered. 
• A More Collaborative Approach –  We’ve heard from many in the AV community that suppliers often feel transactional—or even adversarial—when challenges arise. That’s not who we are. Under new ownership, we are committed to being  responsive, flexible, and solution-focused . Our promise is simple: when problems come up, we’ll work  with you  to resolve them quickly and constructively. 
• Strengthened for the Future –  Fresh capital under new leadership is fueling innovation and strengthening our foundation, so we can serve customers for decades to come. This renewed stability allows us to push boundaries with new products, enhance our service programs, and remain a reliable partner in an unpredictable marketplace. 
• A Sharper Focus on Innovation –  We’re also investing in the future:

• Custom Surfaces  for unique shapes, immersive environments, and scenic integration.
• New Borderless Designs  that push beyond traditional frames.
• Replacement Surface Program  that provides preferred pricing and exclusive benefits for our best partners
• Sustainability Initiatives  offering replacement and recycling programs that cut waste while supporting your clients’ environmental goals.

Looking Ahead: The Screen Works Today and Beyond

The Screen Works has always been about more than fabric and aluminum. We’re about helping ideas come to life on screen—whether it’s a keynote presentation, a live performance, or a hybrid event that connects audiences across the globe.

When you choose  The Screen Works , you’re not just buying a screen—you’re gaining a partner who understands the technical, creative, and logistical demands of professional AV—and who’s committed to working alongside you at every step.

Conclusion

The acquisition of The Screen Works marks a turning point: from a respected legacy to a renewed mission of  innovation, flexibility, and client partnership . We’re excited to build the next chapter together—with our screens, our expertise, and our commitment to being more than a supplier.
