SSE Hydro in Glasgow gets a Stunning New Welcome Screen

The SSE Hydro is a multi-purpose indoor arena located on the site of the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre in Glasgow, Scotland. It hosts a vast array of national and international music artists as well as global entertainment and sporting events.

LEDsynergy recently installed a stunning full colour LED video welcoming screen on the approach road to the Centre. It comprised of a 10mm LED pitch screen with a resolution of 160 x 144 pixels, this was installed within a custom built waterproof totem casing, coloured coded for the client with static graphics securely bolted to the concrete substrate.

The screen not only shows promotional content for the centre’s many live shows and entertainment events, but can also be used for more informational content such as road conditions and traffic information. The graphics content can be as imaginative as you like, showing images and text along with animation and video.

LEDsynergy has installed many similar screens both indoor and outdoor for numerous different applications, including an outdoor full colour video screen at Marlowes shopping Centre in Hemel Hempstead situated in a pedestrian area at the entrance to the shopping centre, again this was part of a local regeneration scheme undertaken by Greenford Ltd,.LEDsynergy installed a similar sized screen to that of the screen installed at Fox Valley but with an LED pitch of 8mm which is a good resolution for an outdoor screen.The display has been a huge success and has proved to be an invaluable tool in promoting the individual retail units and promotional events happening within the centre.

Another recent installation is at the Fox Valley development in Stocksbridge, North Sheffield, Working closely with Dransfield Properties, LEDsynergy was commissioned to manufacture and install two 3 x 2 metre full colour indoor video screens mounted into a custom build structure. The LED pitch of each display is 3mm giving a high resolution of 1152 x 640 pixels. The screens are designed to show promotional content for the centre as well as its many retail outlets and eateries. It can show static images and text as well as full animation and video, only limited by ones imagination. An excellent marketing tool for the new centre and its shops and restaurants.
