Ice and Easy with Stage Electrics
Stage Electrics is now supplying ice rinks as well as more traditional lighting and sound kit they are well known for providing and after supplying lighting, generators and PA systems for rinks for a number of years, the company is keen to get involved in this ever-increasing market. They have become the sole UK distributor for the Dutch company Ice World, providing rinks and boots (approx 2,500 pairs in varying sizes!) throughout the UK.
Stage Electrics is providing the ice and infrastructure, including lighting and PA equipment for venues ranging from shopping malls to parks across the UK including Gloucester, Hampstead and Windsor. A more unusual location for one of the rinks is on the 1st floor of a shopping centre in Victoria which will pose some interesting challenges including pumping up the cooling fluid two storeys.
Stage Electrics’ production manager Andy Loveday led the team which tested the first rink to be delivered from Holland. Working in partnership with Aggreko who provide the chilling equipment, a 30m x 10m rink was constructed in an empty warehouse close to the company’s branch in Avonmouth, Bristol. “It’s been a new experience for us,” he said. “But we are confident that we have the skills and training to deliver. Stage Electrics’ production services department is constantly evolving to keep up with the ever-increasing complexities of the market and specialising in ice rinks is really a natural step – or should that be slip!”
