Zeefframes

Zeefframes are a family of modular display frames designed for mounting digital screens, signage, and printed panels in both indoor and outdoor environments, with a particular emphasis on coastal and marine contexts. The frames are designed to be weather-resistant and configurable, allowing installers to build large, seamless display walls by connecting multiple units in a grid. They are used in museums, aquariums, science centers, and waterfront installations to present multimedia content, data visualizations, or artwork.

Construction and design: Zeefframes typically use lightweight aluminum extrusion profiles with powder-coated finishes, corrosion-resistant fasteners, and IP-rated seals. Each frame offers integrated cable management channels, quick-release clamps, and compatible mounting interfaces such as VESA or custom rails. Front protection can be glass or polycarbonate, with anti-reflective coatings. Versions vary in depth and panel compatibility, enabling the housing of LCD, LED, or non-emissive displays, as well as printed panels.

Features and customization: The modular nature enables horizontal and vertical tiling, with adjustable gaps and alignment. Outdoor models provide UV protection, wind load tolerance, and water resistance; some variants support climate-control accessories or solar power for remote installations.

Applications and usage: Zeefframes are used wherever large, engaging coastal-themed displays are needed—museums, aquariums, educational centers, harbor signage, and public art installations. They are valued for fast assembly, predictable mounting standards, and the ability to reconfigure configurations as content needs change.

Etymology and history: The term zeefframes combines the Dutch word zee for sea with frames, reflecting its original emphasis on maritime contexts. The concept emerged in European exhibition design circles in the early 2010s and has since been adopted by various manufacturers and institutions.
