The great news is that automated telescopic seating can tick both of those boxes. What's more, installing such a seating system won't cost you the earth, even if you opt for the world-class MASTER Eurêka system from, who else, but Master Industrie!
Not Just a Pretty Face
Let's be honest, these days, most seating at modern indoor and outdoor venues across the globe looks amazing, doesn't it? Contemporary lines and shapes. Appealing colours. Inviting comfort. Cleanliness being a given. Every single spectator provided with a wonderfully unobstructed view...Wow. What's more, because tiered seating is retractable and removable, that means more diversification in the types of events that can be held at a venue. But what if telescopic seating design was taken one stage further? What if rows of pristine, modern seats could be drawn in or out in an automated way? And imagine if a seating stand could be sort of 'concertinaed' in fully to a closed position, and then moved sideways, forwards, backwards, and even rotated completely (through a full 360°), by remote control. The MASTER Eurêka system from Master Industrie can do all this and more.
The Master Industrie design team is immensely proud of the MASTER Eurêka system, and relished the challenge of coming up with something different, something wholly unique. But throughout the entire process our No.1 priority, of course, was safety.
Automated Operation: A Safer Way To Move Seating Stands
With telescopic seating stands being adaptable to different events, there may be occasions when they also have to be moved (as a closed-up unit) from one area of a venue to another, or temporarily removed altogether. Because the fully or partially retractable Eurêka system is a multi-directional and pivotal movement system that requires no use of lifting and handling equipment, that means fewer staff are involved in the moving process, saving on costs, and decreasing the potential for accidents and injuries.
A Better Distribution of Seating Weight, when Moved
Yes, one worker will be required to operate the remote control system, but the closed-up stand can travel independently across the venue floor. It moves slowly, but steadily, with no damage caused to the flooring. The risk of toppling is miniscule, or even at zero, primarily because when the retracted stand is in motion, the modules and wheels of the under-structure remain permanently in contact with the ground: the load is evenly spread across the floor area covered while - via remote control - being moved (controlled stand rotation usually occurs in the centre of the flooring space).
Peace of Mind for Venue Managers and Council Officials
With the range of seating system movement being deliberately limited (while in motion), and the labor involved being minimal, that means venue managers can enjoy peace of mind: their modern (almost futuristic-looking) seating system from Master Industrie can be automatically moved in any way, at any time, without their staff's safety being jeopardised; just as for those working in a technical capacity for their local council, storage configurations inside and outside their town or city's entertainment, arts and sports venues are considerably increased, while, simultaneously, risk to arena workers' safety is considerably reduced. Perfect!
