Canford investment guarantees future of popular stagebox design

The outlook for this popular trapezoid stagebox system has been given a significant boost as Canford improves design and makes substantial manufacturing investment.

Building on its position as the ‘supplier of choice’ for custom metalwork and connector panels for the broadcast and pro AV markets, Canford becomes the exclusive Source for this ruggedised deployable solution. Canford’s new design, while appearing similar to the well known legacy Neutrik product, has undergone subtle design improvements. These make it significantly stronger and better suited to the rigours of outside broadcast and live events. “We have been working with the original product for years. This experience meant we knew exactly where to channel our efforts to improve and strengthen the design.” Gavin Drake, Canford Manufacturing Manager
