Tribune Seating Units 

Our team carries out “setting, striking and moving of the seating units” around the NEC campus.

These units come in 10T blocks which retract and then are secured in place for seating within the NEC halls. Each tribune block has a separate staircase at the rear to comply with all safety regulations.

The seating blocks enable the halls to be converted into seating areas for corporate events and conferences. They also allow different space configurations (i.e., combining seating areas with exhibition spaces).

Our team moves these tribune seating units around the NEC halls, from storage into position and reverse after the events.  To do so, we use a boat tug, 18t forklift, and a team of crew to oversee moves and position and ensure health and safety is adhered to. 

Moving these units around the NEC campus involves not just the equipment and planning but a great deal of teamwork. 

Case Study:
Guide Dogs for the Blind

In 2017 we took delivery of an inflatable stand for Guide Dogs for the Blind. 

This stand is used for promotion at all the large exhibitions on the NEC i.e. Crufts, Good Food Show. We store the stand in our unit, adjacent to hall 3, and build and de-rig it approximately six to seven times a year on-site at the NEC. This saves the client transport costs for each show and allows them to turn up with the stand fully set up and ready to go on day one of the exhibition.
