Business projector: definition
A business projector is a projector that has been specially developed for use in business environments. Projectors for the office are indispensable for professional presentations, meetings, training courses and (video) conferences. They make it possible to project visual content onto a large screen or wall so that all participants can see the information clearly and distinctly.
Business projectors are designed to produce a bright and sharp image even in well-lit rooms, making them ideal for use in offices with plenty of natural light or in conference rooms. With their high resolution and brightness, they help to present content in an engaging way regardless of the surrounding environment, significantly increasing effectiveness and engagement in business meetings.
Different models of projectors for the office
When choosing your business projector, there are different models to choose from. You can select your projector for the office based on criteria such as distance to the screen, brightness or projection technology. We have compiled a list of the different business projector models for you:

Criteria for choosing your business projector
The choice of projector for your office depends on what you prefer to use it for. Some projectors are ideal for presentations, others for conferences. Consult the following criteria when choosing your projector:
- Brightness: The brighter the room, the higher the lumen output should be. For offices with a lot of daylight, projectors with at least 5,000 lumens are recommended; for very bright rooms, 10,000 lumens are ideal.
- Resolution: A high resolution (at least Full HD, better 4K) ensures sharp images and is particularly important for presentations with fine details.
- Projection technology: Choose between LCD, LED, LCoS, laser and DLP technology. These differ from each other in terms of color accuracy, contrast ratio, sharpness, energy efficiency and brightness, among other things.
- Throw distance: Check whether your premises require a standard, short-throw or ultra-short-throw projector. This depends on the required distance between the projector and screen
- Connectivity: Make sure that the projector has the necessary connections (HDMI, USB, wireless connectivity) to connect all other devices without any problems.
- Operating noise: A quiet projector is important so as not to be distracting during the presentation. Look for models with a low operating noise level.
- Mobility: If the projector is to be used regularly in different rooms, lightweight and portable devices are recommended.
