The new facility, located just 15 minutes north of the Miami International Airport, serves all ADJ Group companies: Elation Professional, Acclaim, ADJ lighting, American Audio, and Global Truss America/DuraTruss. It includes extensive warehousing and shipping areas, a 3,200 sq ft state-of-the-art showroom, training centre, and quality control and service areas.
Established to support US dealers east of the Mississippi, as well as distributors for Latin America, the new Florida facility allows for faster product delivery and service, and will also save on freight costs.
"We had a very successful event and customers were quite impressed by the facility and showroom," stated Elation sales director Eric Loader at the end of the busy opening. "The time-coded light presentation is fantastic. It includes over 400 fixtures and 18 DMX universes and shows the extensive range of Elation lighting and video products in an ideal setting for customers to evaluate, compare and help realize their vision."
Plans call to hold training seminars at the new facility in 2014 for Elation control products, including the new HedgeHog 4 controller as well as Elation's Zeus Media Server, Capture Polar Design Software and Emulation Pro and Midi Con pro controllers.
Elation now operates warehouse and showroom facilities on both US coasts. The new Florida facility is located at 13185 NW 47th Ave, Opa-locka, FL 33054.
