“We supply the region with cross-rental equipment including rigging, hoists, truss and ground-support rigs. We augment other production companies in town supplying the rigging when they do larger-format shows. We expect to use the new Chain Master hoists in most of the local venues those companies service,” says RZI Lighting head Ray Ziegler.
The Chain Master hoists were suggested by another rental company that “had a great experience with the brand,” Ziegler points out. “The hoists are very well built and will stand up to the rigors of the rental market. We’re glad to add them to our rigging department inventory.”
A.C.T Lighting, Inc. is the exclusive distributor of Chain Master products in North America. A long-time customer of A.C.T Lighting, Ziegler says, “I can always count on extremely good support from A.C.T no matter what the product happens to be.”
