5 Star Supplies Over 100 Cases To CT Doha

News Image
European flightcase manufacturer 5 Star Cases has shipped the first part of an order for over 100 road cases for live event AV and video specialist Creative Technology (CT)’s Doha, Qatar facility.
The units will go to house a variety of kit used day-to-day by the rental operation, headed by General Manager Andy Reardon, including control systems, racks, a variety of different sized plasma screens, mains and power distros, 3U drawered racks, plastic blow-moulded cases with CNC machined foam inserts for audio and video processors and a number of bespoke designed cases to house assorted cameras.
5 Star’s Keith Sykes visited Doha in the summer to measure up the kit needing to be cased.
Mr Reardon said: "Great products and an excellent team. I believe strongly in the products that 5 Star produce and appreciate the level to which they get involved and the amount of detail that goes in to each project .. from the initial phone call through the design and drawing stages right to the final delivery."
Some of the cases were built on previous models that had been created for CT - for continuity – while others were completely new.
Mr Sykes said: "It was a pleasure to continue business with CT and the scale of the investment a real endorsement of our products."
