Belgium - Dry hire company CLUK BV has invested in more than 100 Elation SŌL I Blinders, including accessories, supplied through Elation's exclusive distributor in the country, XLR.
“By choosing Elation as our principal lighting brand and by partnering with XLR as our official distributor, we align ourselves with a portfolio renowned for its exceptional quality, reliability, and global recognition on major tours and productions,” stated Pieter Van de Velde, managing director at CLUK. “XLR strengthens our ability to bring the latest innovations directly to the professionals who rely on us. Together, CLUK and XLR form a strong link in the Elation ecosystem, connecting premium manufacturing with the daily realities of production companies.”
Every SŌL I Blinder will leave the CLUK warehouse in Zulte with its full set of accessories included as standard: blinder lens, Fresnel lens, Bowens adapter, omega bracket with hook, safety cable, interconnectors, jumper cables, gel-frame holder and barndoors. “This ensures production companies never have to worry about missing components or last-minute compromises,” says Van de Velde. “Everything is there, ready to go.”
Operating from new facilities, CLUK specialises in delivering high-end dry hire solutions for the audiovisual industry with an attention to detail and a customer-first approach.
“At CLUK, our mission is clear: to be a preferred partner of Elation in dry hire and the ultimate ally of production companies worldwide,” Van de Velde remarked. “By proactively thinking ahead, maintaining our gear in top condition, and offering the most complete packages, we empower professionals to focus on what truly matters: creating unforgettable shows.”
The new SŌL fixtures join a range of other Elation products already in CLUK’s inventory - Paragon S, Pulse Series, and SIX+ PAR, further strengthening the company’s ability to fulfil client needs.
