UK - There’s no denying that event production is evolving, and the demand for high-quality, seamlessly integrated technical equipment has never been greater. As events have grown larger, more immersive, and increasingly complex, the role of technical suppliers has shifted. Gone are the days of simply delivering functional equipment; today, every piece of kit must meet rigorous performance standards while blending seamlessly into its surroundings.
At DCLX, the goal is to create an environment where technology enhances rather than distracts, allowing audiences to engage fully with the event’s creative vision. From cables to weights, lighting fixtures to truss systems, every element we supply is carefully considered to ensure the highest level of quality and reliability.
“Truss plays a foundational role in event production, providing the structural framework for lighting, audio, visual elements, stage design, and special effects. It must be strong, adaptable, and discreet, capable of supporting the creative ambitions of designers while maintaining a low visual profile. Recognising the importance of high-performance rigging solutions and with our clients' truss requirements growing, we made a strategic decision to invest in Litec truss, a premium truss system known for its strength, versatility, and aesthetic design.
“To ensure we continue our efforts to provide the best possible infrastructure for our clients, we partnered with Area Four Industries UK (A4I UK), a leader in innovative event engineering solutions, to discover the best option. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to quality, safety, and technical excellence. Litec truss was the clear choice for our growing inventory, as it’s not only durable and reliable but also flexible for a wide range of event applications. Additionally, it comes in black, a key point for us.”
“Our investment in Litec truss was guided by three key factors – innovation and reliability, versatility, and aesthetic integration.”
To support its growing portfolio of high-end events, DCLX has acquired over 300m of black Litec QX-30S truss, featuring multiple configurations to accommodate any setup requirement.
The investment is already paying off, with Litec truss proving its reliability and adaptability across numerous prestigious events. It has been supplied to Scoop International, where its sleek design provided the necessary structural support without distracting from the fashion collections on display. It has also been deployed at major music festivals, supporting dynamic lighting rigs that create unforgettable performances. Beyond the UK, our truss has supported European trade shows, enhancing professional exhibition setups crucial for brand storytelling.
“Our investment in Litec truss reinforces our ongoing commitment to providing the best solutions that meet the evolving needs of our clients. By working with A4I UK and choosing Litec as our exclusive truss system, we are ensuring that our clients receive the highest quality infrastructure, designed to support events that push creative and technical boundaries.”
"Partnering with Area Four Industries UK has been a great experience,” says Alex Girdwood, director, DCLX. “Their expertise and commitment to quality really stood out, making them the perfect choice for helping us find the right truss solution. The support from A4I UK has been invaluable, and the Litec truss has quickly become a key part of our inventory, meeting the demands of our events and clients."
