The new MiPIX intelligent LED pixel blocks from Barco
UK - Creative Technology has marked the relocation to its new 54,000sq.ft facility in Crawley by announcing a 'single brand' service operation, in which the staging services of MCL London, currently operating from within CT's premises, will now be amalgamated and operate under the CT London brand. At the same time the company has committed to a heavy investment in new inventory and technology. The strategic decision to operate as a single entity, addressing the broad span of market sectors covered by the two companies, was confirmed this month by managing director Mark Elliott.

"Being able to centralize all our resources into a single building has enabled us to further develop full service capability to provide a wide range of resources. This includes video, lighting, audio, and staging equipment, together with our ever-increasing range of indoor and outdoor LED screens." Elliot said.At the same time, a substantial upgrade to Creative Technology's hire fleet will see heavy investment in cutting-edge equipment, with the company intensifying its already strong international partnerships with both Vista Systems and Barco. New investment includes three state-of-the-art Vista Montage processors, allowing CT to expand on its already advanced multi-image capability, as well as 200m of Barco Dlite, seven LED daylight displays and MiPIX modular intelligent LED pixel blocks. Alongside its sister company, JVR in Holland, the company is also developing two new mobile LED trailers - with rotating masts - which will be commissioned in time for the 2004 summer season.

Elliott went on to say: "Creative Technology continually strives to enhance its service provision, alongside robust investment and a clear aspiration to exceed client expectations."
