Absen Marks 25 Years With ISE 2026 Success

Absen has concluded a landmark week at Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2026, using the premier industry event to celebrate its 25th anniversary alongside a sweeping series of award wins.

The company's presence in Barcelona was defined by a combination of critical acclaim for its current portfolio and the official debut of its future-focused visual solutions. Reflecting its dominance across multiple sectors, Absen picked up accolades for both rental and fixed-installation hardware, as well as recognition for its involvement in one of the year's largest live music events.

The company's excellence was recognised with two Best of Show wins, reflecting Absen's reach across diverse sectors of the audiovisual industry. The JP Series was honoured in the AV Technology category for its cutting-edge performance in the rental market, whilst the CL V3 took home the award in the Installation category, cementing its status as a first-class choice for high-end fixed install applications. These wins all underscore Absen's commitment to manufacturing displays that offer both superior visual quality and operational efficiency.

The success continued at the Inavation Awards, where the SA-C flexible LED was named the winner in the Event Technology category. Celebrated for its unique design that allows for creative configurations, the SA-C has become a key display for set designers looking to push the boundaries of traditional stage setups. This was followed by a significant victory at the AV News Awards, where the Oasis Live Tour 2025 was crowned Project of the Year in the Live Events category. Utilising over 1,100sqm of Absen Venus LED, the tour demonstrated Absen's ability to deliver world-class visual backdrops for the most high-profile music events.  

In addition to these honours, ISE 2026 provided the platform for the official launch of three groundbreaking new products that will contribute to the company's next chapter. Attendees to the stand were introduced to the SA1.5 COB, representing the next evolution of the Saturn rental platform; the CL V3, the new flagship of the Clear Cobalt Micro LED series; and the AW Pro, an ultra-HD outdoor fine-pitch solution. These launches, held during the company's 25th Anniversary celebrations, highlight a future-focused strategy centred on sustainability, precision, and immersive experiences.

"To be celebrating our 25th anniversary at ISE whilst receiving such esteemed recognition for our technology and projects served as a source of immense pride for everyone at Absen," said Tania Zhao, Vice President at Absen. "The awards for the JP Series, CL V3, and SA-C, alongside the recognition for the Oasis tour, are a testament to our team's dedication to pushing the limits of LED technology. As we look back on 25 years of progress, we remain steadfast in our mission to help our partners through unparalleled innovation."

Absen extends its gratitude to ecosystem partners EnlightV, LED.ART and Brompton who were instrumental in bringing its vision for ISE 2026 to life.
