The Display Shield weatherproof digital signage display enclosure has been deployed in an array of theme parks and outdoor venues including Six Flags, Coney Island, Dollywood, Zoomers Amusement Park, Sahara Sam's Water Park, Palace Playland and more, according to an announcement from manufacturer Protective Enclosures Company.

The Display Shield is being used for protecting, securing and weatherproofing digital signage, ticket boards and information signs. Also, through its partnership with Philips Signage Solutions, PEC said it gives theme parks a one-stop-shop option for weatherproof digital signage solutions. PEC now sells Philips LCD, LED monitors and more signage options with SmartPlayers, SmartBrowsers, OPS slots for connection with other displays and more features. Some signage offers the capability to update displays around the parks instantly. Between shows and in ride lines, adventure park goers appreciate a little down time, which is why parks are also placing their TVs in The Display Shield outdoor TV enclosures in sitting areas and throughout long lines leading to rides, the company said.

According to PEC, rain, wash-downs and water splashes are no threat to this sealed-shut weatherproof display enclosure. The Display Shield also includes a thermostatically controlled filtered fan system coupled with louvered vents, which regulate the temperature of the enclosed display. The Display Shield outdoor digital monitor cases are built of durable and long-lasting HMWPE outdoor plastics and an ultra-clear Lexan polycarbonate front shield, the same material used to produce bulletproof glass.

"PEC is very pleased to be helping theme parks save money and deliver signage and entertainment to guests with adorable weatherproof sign solutions," PEC Owner Justin King said in the announcement. The Display Shield can be seen in person Nov. 18-21 at this year's IAAPA Attractions Expo in Orlando, Florida.
