Case Study: Chimney Group achieves secure, accelerated global media transfers and becomes premier agency for international and automotive clients with Signiant Media Shuttle

A Growing International Agency Delivers on Its Promises, by Delivering Large Media Files Faster

Chimney Group is an employee-owned, full-service filmmaking and creation agency headquartered in Stockholm that produces roughly 6,000 pieces per year across 10 offices in six countries. Rapidly growing 2K/4K file sizes, hundreds of files per project, and unreliable FTP transfers threatened deadlines, cross-border collaboration and customer trust — and an in-house open-source acceleration attempt proved too time-consuming and lacked a user-friendly interface.

Chimney implemented Signiant Media Shuttle for secure, accelerated transfers with checkpoint restart, brandable portals and simple administration, eliminating failed transfers and easing international asset sharing. The result: dramatically higher throughput and capacity, faster delivery (up to 200x vs. FTP), approval to work with an ISO‑conscious global automotive client, reduced costs and staff time, and the ability to monetize premium delivery as a profit center.
