We blend smart engineering with exceptional craftsmanship to shape environments that elevate your event and endure the demands of live performance.

Staging

Adaptable platforms.
Rock-solid reliability.

Staging plays a fundamental role in event presentation, providing the physical foundation for performances, speakers, and brand activations. From modular corporate platforms to large-scale festival stages and bespoke builds, staging solutions must balance safety, aesthetics, and functionality. They include structural elements, coverings, skirting, ramps, accessibility features, and scenic enhancements.

Creative flexibility, weight-bearing considerations, and environmental adaptability (e.g., weatherproofing) are central to staging design for live events.

Rigging

Precision support.
From the top down.

Rigging is a critical discipline responsible for the safe installation, suspension, and movement of lighting, audio, video, scenery, and special effects equipment in event venues. It encompasses everything from flown truss grids and hoist systems to custom-engineered rigging designs and automation.

A professionally designed rigging system ensures not only technical reliability and structural safety but also supports creative and logistical flexibility. Rigging solutions are tailored to each venue’s limitations, production goals, and safety requirements, often requiring structural calculations, load plans, and compliance with regional regulations.

LUX Technical Disciplines Build Infrastructure

Aerial Trussing & Grid Systems

Aerial trussing creates a framework for mounting lights, screens, speakers, and scenic elements overhead. Configurations include box trusses, circular trusses, goalpost structures, and mother grids.

These are suspended from venue beams or ground-supported and designed for load distribution, cable management, and safety compliance.

Motorised Hoists & Encoded Motor Systems

Motorised hoists, including chain motors and encoded motors, provide dynamic lifting and precise positioning of overhead elements. Encoded systems allow for programmed movements, load monitoring, and integration with show control systems.

These are essential in concerts, touring, and arena environments where timing and repeatability are critical.

LUX Technical Disciplines Build Infrastructure

Ground Support & Goalpost Systems​

Ground support systems use vertical and horizontal truss to create stable load-bearing structures. These are ideal for outdoor events, temporary stages, or venues lacking overhead suspension points.

Load-bearing capacity is carefully calculated based on ballast, wind loads, and structural components.
