CGS Dry Hire invests in Robe Forte
- Details
These are the first Fortes to be received in Germany and have been purchased for general lighting rental stock - with CGS’ Christian Geyer looking ahead to when the industry restarts, and for a couple of specific jobs that require a high-powered, multifunctional LED fixture.
Geyer, who founded CGS in 1999 whilst still a technology-obsessed teenager and a keen DJ, commented: “Investing in premium brands and solid technology has always been a CGS trademark. It has helped enable us to build the company’s reputation for excellence, and we see Forte as a smart option for rental stock that will help expand our market position both now and for years to come.”
He and his colleagues, including CGS department manager Josef Reichenstetter, noticed a groundswell of interest in the Forte from lighting designers and the lighting community generally even before it was launched by Robe last month, and this encouraged them to organise a demo as soon as units were available.
CGS has been investing heavily in Robe products throughout the last few years. “We’re adding more Robe fixtures to our inventory step by step since Robe products are not only demanded in high quantities, but also almost always accepted as an alternative to any other brand,” explains Geyer.
