MONTREAL – Evolve Technology has formed a partnership agreement with Montreal-based Theatrixx Technologies to sell and rent in the US video converters, power distribution equipment and the Totem 2.5mm LED poster manufactured by Theatrixx.

“Theatrixx video converters and distribution products are far and away the gold standard for video signal flow, and their Totem 2.5mm LED poster is one of the highest-quality digital signage displays available,” says Trew Rickers, Executive Vice President of Evolve Technology.

“We vetted four or five different product lines for distribution, and Theatrixx-branded equipment was the most rugged, durable, and highest-quality with top-notch electrical components,” he notes.  “Our customers use millions of dollars of equipment to service high-end live events where failure is not an option.  They demand premium products, and we want to rent them peace of mind.”

Rickers points out that the leadership of both Evolve and Theatrixx take the same approach to the marketplace.  “Our companies share a very similar business philosophy: do things right and offer high-quality products to support our customers’ most important events.”

Maxime Duschinsky, Theatrixx’s Sales Manager for the USA, agrees.  “We share the same values.  We create high-quality products to solve problems for the live events, integration and installation industries and offer top quality customer service before, during, and after the sale,” he says.  “Evolve has a great line card of products – they have been buying our gear for more than five years – and they’re known for high-quality service, so that works very well for us.

“We’ve also been a distributor of other high-quality products for 21 years so we know the challenges that Evolve faces as a distributor,” he adds.  “It’s all about customer service.  We couldn’t have found a better partner to work within the US than Evolve.”

Evolve will offer for sale and rental a full range of Theatrixx-branded video converters, including rackmount and portable models for every format, plus custom power distribution systems, built to order, for videowall, rigging, and lighting applications.

In addition, Evolve will rent the Theatrixx Totem, a standalone, fully autonomous 2.5mm direct-view LED digital signage display.  “Totem has one of the highest resolutions in the market and is very easy to use,” says Rickers.  “This technology is getting more and more popular, especially for corporate events and conventions where it is replacing hard panels and signs.”
