Showman’s Show 2023
date 4th October 2023
Showman’s Show 2023

Come and see us on 18th & 19th October at Newbury Showground on Stand 102

The Showman’s Show is returning to Newbury Showground again for 2023, and it is a great place to see all kinds of outdoor events suppliers in preparation for summer 2024 and beyond. Running on Wednesday 18th and Thursday 19th October, the show features an indoor pavilion with lots of exhibitors, as well as a large outdoor space. Outside is where the action really is, and all kinds of event suppliers can be found displaying their wares– including the IPS stand, which will be focussed on our Staging & Structures offerings.

In a bit of a break from tradition (and due to lots of bookings already in place for summer 2024), we won’t have an Outdoor Roof Stage on display this year but will have a Projection and Control structure for our popular range – plus an opportunity to be amongst the first to see our newly developed modular 6m Front of House structure. Complete with an attractive curved roof design, this single, two or three story FOH offers production accommodation for even the most demanding control solutions whilst not being too obtrusive for audience sightlines.

Not only will there be Staging & Structures on the IPS stand, and a chance to talk about your event requirements with some of the delightful IPS team, but there will also be a chance to see the brand new Chauvet REM 3IP LED screen up close. This 3.9mm pitch hybrid indoor/outdoor screen is our highest resolution outdoor capable offering – and with an amazing colour reproduction it is a treat for the eyes. Come and check it out for yourselves at the show.

The show also hosts the Sustainable Events Summit on Wednesday October 18th, which is part of the Vision 2025 campaign. Offering a packed programme of presentations and information, it is a great place to catch up on all the latest action on Outdoor Events Sustainability.

There is still time to register for free tickets to see us on stand 102 – plus lot of other suppliers too. Check out all the latest details for the show here. If you can’t make it to the show, but still want to talk about your 2024 and beyond requirements, you can get in touch with us here.

IPS has added a range of Black powder coated truss to the H30V stocks, along with more H30V Truss Circles

Also stocked are a range of two, three and four way truss corners, plus adaptable Box corners which can be configured in any format with a combination of long or short adaptors. Check out the current rental prices here. IPS also has a large selection of accessories including standard & heavy base plates, MPT tower components, Hinges and spacers – everything you need for all kinds of projects.

Truss-CircleIPS stocks a range of Prolyte H30V Truss circles. They are supplied in sections so they can be configured either as circles, or have corners added to be used as ground supported structure – or have any other corner or straight Prolyte H30V section inserted to create a vast range of shapes. The details of the circles and the parts that they are supplied in are detailed here on our website. IPS also stocks Astralite A03 truss and a wide range of Prolyte truss, including products from the H30L, H30D, H30V, H40V, S40T, & S52SV product ranges and all the associated accessories.

As with all the other product lines, Truss can be supplied as a dry hire rental item, or IPS can supply a complete solution including delivery and collection. From a truss upright or T-shaped totem to a ground supported box or much more complicated structure, we can help – and have been involved with all sorts of projects in various unusual locations and have the kit and experience to make things happen. Please get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Prolyte Truss Circle Hire
date 25th February 2013
Prolyte Truss Circle Hire

IPS has taken delivery of more Prolyte H30V components, and can now supply shapes including circles and octagons.

New for 2013 is a 4m Diameter Prolyte H30V Truss circle – now available to hire. The circle is constructed from four curved sections, which means that not only will it fit into most LWB vans for easy transport; it is also easy to add three way corners and down legs to create a circular topped ground support. Based on four suspension points, the circle can hold just over 300kg per metre, offering a large number of rigging possibilities. The Prolyte H30V range is one of the most popular truss products stocked by IPS, and with large quantities in stock, the new circle adds to the existing Astralite and scaffold circles already in our inventory.

Truss-CircleAlso new for this year are Prolyte H30V CO05 135degree corners. These angled sections mean that octagonal shapes can be built, and used in combination with parts of the truss circle above can be used to create archways- and many other shapes. A recent project using these new corners saw a team from IPS build a part flown, part ground supported structure in a London Studio which was then clad to look like a space station!

Heavy base plates in various shapes and sizes are also in stock to help your structure stand up, along with all kinds of adaptors, clamps, couplers, boom arms and just about every rigging accessory you can think of is available to hire – along with Prolyft and Prostar motors & controllers, manual chain hoists and genie lifts to get what you want into position. We can also arrange custom fabrication for special projects. IPS can also help with CAD design of your structures, and can work with you to get structural calculations for your structure.

Truss-CO05IPS has a massive stock of Prolyte trussing and accessories, and loads of experience and ideas of how to use it- why not get in touch to discuss your next project? Many different rigging solutions are avaliable from rental stock, and as an appoved Prolyte Rental Partner, we can offer products from across almost all truss product ranges from Prolyte. From a comparatively simple truss shape or box, to more complicated structures, inside or out, we can help. Why not contact us now?
