It is also their first investment into the Robe brand, prompted by Peitsman Licht en Geluid owner and founder Hans Peitsman's desire to keep moving forward, thinking of the future and offering his clients the latest technologies.
Peitsman Licht en Geluid was founded in 1994 and now has 15 full time employees. The company supplies full technical production packages to a broad cross-section of industry sectors - live shows and events, B2B and corporate presentations, theatre and television productions, parties and public entertainments.
The order for the new Robe fixtures - delivered by Benelux distributor Controllux's Dutch office - was for 16 Robin DLF Wash fixtures and 12 Robin DLXs.
Ten DLFs and six DLXs went straight out on tour with Percossa, a dramatic high energy percussion ensemble - currently touring Benelux and France with two shows and spectacular lighting designed and operated by Maarten van Dorp.
Apart from this immediate demand, it appealed to Peitsman's commercial thinking to be the first in the region with the DLF, which was launched by Robe at Prolight+Sound, Frankfurt 2012.
