IPS has expanded their inventory of EXE Technology hoists with further investment in EXE Rise D8+ with an additional 40 1000Kg and 12 2000Kg double fall chain hoists, considerably expanding its EXE rental stock.
Having increased their EXE Rise D8+ fleet in April with 1000Kg and 500Kg units, they have seen an upsurge in demand via their trade hire team with enquiries from their customer base, especially for the 1000Kg units.
EXE has been in action non-stop over the festival season on multiple events organised by the IPS team. Key highlights include the Kaleidoscope Festival at Alexandra Place in July and the Mountain Stage at Greenman Festival on the Glanusk Estate. IPS are also the incumbent venue service partner at the Marshall Arena located in Milton Keynes, providing rigging and power support, where EXE hoists are a regular feature in the arena rig.
Most recently, IPS provided staging, structures and a complete rigging package for the weigh-in event for fighters on the Joshua vs Dubois card, the first Riyadh Season card in the UK held at Wembley on 21 September 2024. The event was held at Trafalgar Square the day before the fight, and the IPS supplied rigging included 17 1000Kg EXE D8+ Rise hoists to support the onstage show production.
Responding to market demand and increasing inventory levels, this additional investment complements IPS’s existing range of rigging solutions and highlights its ongoing commitment to providing cutting-edge equipment that ensures safety and success at every event.
“We are excited to further extend our investment into EXE Rise hoists as they are delivering great results for our operation. The first IPS purchase was when we needed a 2000kg capacity double fall unit for our larger roof structures and towers, and our stock has been growing ever since,” James Mason (IPS Owner and Key Account Director) said. “The EXE Rise chain hoist range has proved to be notably quiet compared to other hoists and have proved to be very reliable in operation in a range of different event applications. They have been popular with our own technicians and with our customers.”
“Increasing industry awareness and customer specification of D8+ compliant products have made this an important feature for our trade hire inventory. Combined with a range of clever features and customer demand specifically for the EXE Rise products have made the decision even easier. Increasing our hire range to include 500kg and 1000kg models made sense, and this latest stock increase will boost rental availability moving forward. IPS now have over 160 hoists ready to hire.”
ThE latest EXE investment further solidifies IPS’s commitment to responding to the growing demand for robust, safe and efficient rigging solutions and strengthening its partnership with EXE by providing a full range of chain hoists for any size of production.
