Dry Hire Lighting made the move due to an increased demand generally across all sectors for all of Robe products which are appearing with increasing frequency on specifications for concert tours, theatres shows, TV series' as well as special, corporate and industrial events and presentations.
"We have the largest rental stocks of the Pointe in the UK and it is definitely the fixture of the year right now," says Dry Hire Lighting's Rob Merrilees, "It's being used on numerous productions and demand is generally really high - people just can't get enough of them."
The multi-purpose Pointe was launched in April 2013 and in the last 10 months has become Robe's fastest ever selling product and hugely popular. Shows and events utilizing Pointes have included David Guetta, Selena Gomez, the MTV Video Music Awards, Glastonbury festival to name a few - and its versatility has become a big hit with designers worldwide.
Says Merrilees, "I have known some of the people involved in Robe for around 20 years - although the time feels like it's evaporated in a flash! They are extremely pleasant people to do business with and their passion for the industry matches the commitment to producing excellent products."
