The new storage facility is situated in Croespenmaen, near Blackwood in Caerphilly which is situated close to the M4 just 40 minutes drive from the company's head office in Avonmouth. The storage facility is situated on a large mixed usage estate and potentially another half million square feet is available if required in the future.
This year Stage Electrics supplied 13 temporary ice rinks in the UK and Ireland including rinks of 850m2 in Manchester, 810sq.m in Brighton, 600sq.m in Cambridge, 450sq.m in Huddersfield, 325sq.m at Marwell Zoo and for the third year Gloucester's rink, two rinks in Bristol, a 600sq.m rink in Tralee, Ireland and an artificial rink at Earls Court at the Boat Show.
Gordon Wells, head of finance at Stage Electrics commented: "Leasing this space makes perfect sense, following the launch of our new ice entertainment, Ice Bumper Cars, our ice storage in our Bristol Head Office was getting close to capacity. We now have plenty of space to store equipment that may only be used once or twice a year, yet is easily accessible for any last minute requirements."
