Germany - The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Christina Aguilera, Nelly Furtado, The Beastie Boys, The Police, Celine Dion, Tim McGraw, The Killers, The Montreal Symphony Orchestra and Canadian hard rock legends Rush are just some of the acts currently touring with equipment from ChainMaster or whose recent shows have featured equipment from the Eilenburg-based manufacturer.

The Peppers, for example, took 21 500kg VarioLifts, eight 800kg VarioLifts and four VarioTrolleys with them on their latest world tour, whilst the Beastie Boys opted for six half-ton VarioLifts.

The musicals Wicked, The Elvis Story, Night Fever and We Will Rock You as well as the NHL All Star Game, the Juno Awards Presentation, the Canadian Country Music Awards and the East Cast Music Awards - not to forget the Tattoo Military Music Show - are other high-profile productions in which chain hoists and chain-hoist controllers have played key roles, says the company.
