Sport stadiums and theaters today have more uses than their original purposes, from rotating stages to retractable football fields. But the need for flexibility doesn’t stop there. At local sports halls, seating stands can also be moved or retracted to create more space during school hours and facilitate space for fans on the weekend.
Air casters can easily move large modules or weights like seating stands and entire stages. With a well-suited floor, air bearings are very quiet. Due to the low lift, Air casters can offer a solution, allowing you to offer audiences an extra experience. The technique of Air casters is also frequently used in other industries.
Examples of successful projects:
- London Olympic Stadium. Every year after the soccer season ends, the Olympic Stadium in London is converted with Air casters for concerts and other sports events by moving the seating stands. At the end of the summer, the stadium will be prepped for the West Ham United soccer season. As a result, fans can sit close to the pitch again to get the real Premier League experience.
- Sports stands. In collaboration with our partners, we have made various stands movable. When using Air casters, no rutting is formed in the floor, which prevents floor damage.
- Theater. In collaboration with several partners, we built several movable seating modules and stages. We made this possible with Air casters both for solutions with frequently moved seating (fixed mounted casters) and occasional moves as well.
Do you want to move a grandstand in the future? In that case you may be confronted with hard-to-reach places. Air planks are particularly suitable for that. Do you have small cracks in the floor or expansion joints that you must cross? Then the Gap Crossers offer the solution, which can also be combined with these air planks or beams.
