Cinema Lamps - reliability starts here

Christie cinema lamps light up screens around the world, and help you give your patrons the best cinema experience.

We know our customers personally. Longer lamp life and lower operating costs are among the key features that exhibitors and installers look for when selecting lamps. With no margin for error, the show must always go on.

“ I consistently experience the extended life of the lamps well beyond their warranty hours and have had virtually no returns due to failures. Christie lamps give me the lowest cost of ownership. I have been using Christie Xenolite lamps for over 14 years, and I love the fact that Christie is always working on R&D to develop better and more efficient lamps.”

Jacques Dornbierer Hogan, President
Dor Internacional, S.A.

“ To me, it is more about how long the customer can use the lamp and obtain good results, while at the same time, reduce operating costs.”

Frank Schmitz, Head of Sales
Film Ton Technik (FTT), Germany
