Planar Systems

In 1983, Planar launched what its three founders called “superior display technology” out of their base in Beaverton, Oregon. Almost thirty years later, the global company offers a highly technical range of displays that solve hardware and software issues with a product that performs.

Planar's products have become increasingly popular with architects and designers in recent years, given their capacity to operate as space-transforming artwork and to communicate information efficiently. On Madison Avenue in New York City, one can find a massive Clarity® Matrix™ modular video wall display occupying the entire Hollister Storefront, streaming footage from a live video cam on a pier in California. Full-height crashing waves and surfers seem to inhabit the streetscape for a spectacular effect.

For digital signage and architectural applications, Planar's product offerings range from large-format flat panel displays to bezel-free displays, interactive touchscreens and the most popular - Clarity® Matrix™ modular video wall. Speaking primarily to those in architecture and interior design, Planar’s product range of LCD displays for Control Rooms and Digital Signage set the technical standard in the field of large-format displays and touch screen devices.
