Complete Equipment of the Cinema Halls at Ecomall Commercial Complex in Karaj
Ecomall Commercial Complex in Karaj is one of the largest and most prominent multipurpose projects in western Tehran Province. For a complex of this scale, internationally standard cinema halls were essential to provide audiences with an exceptional experience.
Drawing on years of experience equipping cultural venues, Rezco (Rezco) took responsibility for fully equipping the complex in 2018. The project went beyond seat installation and included an integrated process covering layout design, audio systems, specialized lighting, and the control room.
The result was the creation of 1,052 cinema seats across several modern halls, now recognized as one of Karaj’s most popular cinema destinations.
Specialized Approach to Project Implementation
Our approach to equipping the Ecomall halls was to combine “standards and efficiency.” The project’s technical challenges were addressed through detailed engineering:
- Layout and Sightline Design: With 1,052 seats, the layout was designed to provide a clear, unobstructed view of the screen from every location. The hall floor slope was calculated and implemented according to international cinema standards.
- Professional Acoustics and Sound: Sound engineers performed precise calculations for installing JBL speakers to prevent unwanted reflections and distribute clear 360-degree sound throughout the space.
- Cinematic Lighting: A specialized theater lighting system enabled control of lighting conditions in three stages—before, during, and after screenings—transforming the venue into a professional and atmospheric environment.
Technical Equipment and Hall Facilities
1. Cinema and VIP Seats
The seats installed at Ecomall were selected with a focus on “durability under heavy traffic” and “user comfort”:
- Technology: Single-base seats with fixed seats and spring-operated movable backrests.
- Materials: Flame-retardant cold foam for safety and shape retention, with abrasion-resistant fabric.
- Options: Standard cup-holder armrests and ergonomic design to reduce fatigue.
- VIP Section: Premium seats installed to provide a luxury viewing experience.
2. Control Room and Control Equipment
The control center of the halls was equipped with professional systems:
- Ergonomic operator chairs
- Custom-designed MDF control desk for complete operator oversight
3. Dolby JBL Sound System
The JBL sound system was selected for its excellent dialogue clarity and low-frequency performance, providing the complex with the required cinema audio standards.
4. Smart Curtain System
A three-stage curtain system was installed, including an opening curtain, closing curtain, and two-layer side curtains adjusted to the hall’s sightlines.
