The headquarters of Hapag-Lloyd AG, the impressive Ballin House, is one of Hamburg’s landmarks. The shipping company operates one of the largest container ship fleets worldwide. This strong market position requires representative and optimally equipped conference and meeting rooms. Hapag-Lloyd has now modernized the main conference room in Ballin House and equipped it with an innovative LED wall from Delta Display Systems.

The roots of Hapag-Lloyd AG go far back into the 19th century, when the first ships of the founding companies – the Hamburg-American Packet Shipping Company (Hapag) and North German Lloyd – set sail and transported cargo and passengers to New York. 176 years later, Hapag-Lloyd is a global liner shipping company with 258 modern container ships, 1.9 million TEU transport volume, and around 14,000 employees in 400 offices across 135 countries.

Hapag-Lloyd has a container capacity of 2.9 million TEU, including one of the largest and most modern fleets of refrigerated containers. A total of 115 liner services worldwide ensure fast and reliable connections between more than 600 ports on all continents. Hapag-Lloyd is one of the leading providers in the Transatlantic, Middle East, Latin America, and Intra-America trades. One of Hapag-Lloyd’s goals is to ‘connect the world across the seas.’ However, this goes far beyond shipping, as connecting businesses, markets, and economies also requires state-of-the-art communication tools and technologies.

Vivid Communication
The previous cube video wall no longer met the new demands and requirements. It was clear that a modern LED wall was essential for the re-equipment of the main boardroom. The choice fell on a 110-inch HD COB LED wall with a pixel pitch of just 1.2 mm from Delta Display Systems. It delivers a seamless, brilliant image thanks to the small pixel distances and provides sharp rendering even at close range. The anti-glare surface and extremely wide viewing angle ensure a pleasant viewing experience. The new LED wall supports multi-screen conference applications and enhances every meeting.

Impressive Welcome
In addition to the main boardroom, the lobby of the Ballin House has also been equipped with an LED wall. The 165” Full HD LED COB video wall from Delta Display Systems installed here welcomes visitors with generous visual displays in true-to-life colors and outstanding image quality or with up-to-date information. This allows guests to be properly greeted.

Easy Installation and Maintenance
An essential component of any LED wall solution is the wall mount. In this case, the frame was designed, manufactured, and installed by EHM Visualsystems. It is based on the successful cantilever system, which provides rear access to the LED wall for fine adjustments without the need to remove the COB panels. However, the Delta COB LED wall is fully front-serviceable. The magnetic LED modules are mounted on the frame without requiring special tools. On-site calibration is not necessary, as all panels are factory-calibrated.
