It's underneath you! Gopak staging is panto star
Published:  23 November, 2009

Students at the Diamanthorst British School of the Netherlands are getting in the Christmas spirit with the Ultralight Staging system. Thanks to the cannily designed equipment, their pantos and carol services will benefit from a stage with professional good looks.

Supplied and designed by Gopak, market leaders in school furniture, Ultralight Staging is great for Diamanthorst for not only its looks but also its versatility. Partnered to three different schools spread across two locations, it was essential that the staging could be easily moved - thanks to it being super lightweight - but also erected by staff and students without hassle.

With fold out aluminium stage risers, the system can be set up by one person with no difficulty. The risers are pulled apart, the decking placed on top and then secured with an Allen key and the stage is ready for use. This does not compromise the structure's rigidity - the sturdy frame can hold up to one tonne per square metre, making it perfect for big choirs at carol services.

When events are over, the staging can be dismantled as simply as it was put up. It all folds down completely, making it easy to transport and maximising space for other uses. With the addition of an Ultralight Staging transportation trolley, packing away can be made even quicker, ideal for the end of term when students and staff want to get off and enjoy their Christmas breaks.

The system is easily adaptable too as it comes in a range of packages. The British School of the Netherlands has two Ultralight sets to combine, but the staging can be reconfigured and turned into different shapes. From catwalks to smaller stages, it can be made to fit every need. Available in several different heights, it is great for any age group or use.

With the additional choice of different coloured valances and deck finishes, from carpets to high grip black vinyl, any organisation can stage a professional event using Ultralight Staging.
