Forrest Media Adds Three Daktronics Displays To Scotland Inventory

50-square-meter display installed in Edinburgh, two displays in Glasgow

BROOKINGS, S.D. – Feb. 2, 2017 – Forrest Media is building on their recent installation success in Glasgow by adding another Daktronics (NASDAQ-DAKT) digital LED display in Edinburgh, Scotland, and two more displays in Glasgow. The installation in Edinburgh on Salamander Street this past autumn provides a 50-square-meter digital display as do the two displays positioned along the Xpressway in Glasglow.

All three displays are larger than industry standard for this application and feature 10-millimeter line spacing for excellent image clarity and contrast while disseminating messages to the masses. Daktronics industry-leading environmental protection ensures the display is safe from the outdoor elements for round-the-clock functionality.

"We are very humbled to continue our partnership with Forrest Media by providing these digital solutions at Salamander Street in Edinburgh and the Xpressway in Glasgow," said Ewan Prentice, Daktronics regional manager. "The continued trust shown from Forrest Media that Daktronics has the best products and services to support their growth in the digital market is a great driver to us all at Daktronics to ensure we maintain our high standards and continue to exceed expectations in value."

These installations add to the displays installed this past summer at Finneston Quay in Glasgow by Forrest Media. For more information on the first Glasgow project, click here. Forrest Media has installed five Daktronics digital displays in the past 12 months, including the first 8-millimeter display in all of Europe.

Daktronics LED video and messaging display technology offers a long lifetime with consistent, industry-leading performance and low power consumption, providing value and excitement for years to come.​​
