Air Screen
Inflatable movie screens have revolutionized the outdoor movie.
Our airtight inflatable screen is the ideal solution for outdoor movie projections at the pool, in an outdoor venue or even on the beach. Because the screen does not need a blower when inflated, due to its completely airtight frame structure, this means you can even set up it up floating on water. Convert your pool into a great outdoor cinema!
