The MPO Group invests in Blu-ray lines

The MPO Group, one of Europe's leading optical disc replication and publishing service provider, has announced it is strengthening its activities in the high-definition market by investing in Blu-ray production lines and has selected Singulus as its supplier of BD equipment.

"This makes MPO the one and only independent manufacturer in Europe to have a complete Blu-ray manufacturing chain from mastering to replication. Blu-ray represents a genuine challenge for the future of MPO and video publishing," says Loïc de Poix (pictured), Chairman of the MPO board.

"The MPO group wishes to be involved in establishing the new high definition format and contributing to the growth of the HD video market. Our team's involvement in the manufacture of next-generation products started over two years ago and the investments made in Blu-ray make the MPO group an essential high-definition player in Europe," de Poix added.

Singulus is the partner of choice for MPO, having supplied over one hundred CD and DVD production lines for MPO's plants in Europe, Asia and North America. "The combination of the unique CrystalLine mastering system with the BLU-LINE II brings MPO in an excellent position to become one of the leading BD manufacturers of Europe," comments Guido Dalessi, CEO of Singulus Mastering.
