SwissBlock Mini event block with extendable outriggers, concrete weight 0.80x0.80x0.50m -LxWxH- approx. 600 kg

As multifunctional as a Swiss army knife

Finally, there is a clever and flexible solution for providing stable and secure ballasting for temporary structures for lighting, sound, stage technology, as well as trusses at events: the event block from SwissBlock®.

In the event industry, fast assembly and disassembly, safe construction and maximum flexibility are crucial. Whether light towers, PA towers, LED walls, ground supports or entrance portals: every event has specific requirements in terms of stability and logistics.

This is precisely where the event block comes into play: a monolithic element made of high-strength concrete that was specially developed for the requirements of the event industry. Originally conceived as a one-off customer project, the event block quickly found favor. Based on a well-thought-out formwork system combined with several galvanized steel components cast into the concrete, an extremely flexible and versatile solution was created.

This is what characterizes the mini event block with extendable outriggers:

• Enhanced stability: four extendable outriggers increase stability as required.
• Flexible: Perfect as ballast for PA systems, LED walls, ground supports and more.
• Easy handling: recesses for pallet trucks or pedestrian stackers make transportation easier.
• Direct truss mounting: truss systems with a cross-section of up to 47 cm can be attached without additional connecting elements.
• Durable and weatherproof: high-quality concrete and hot-dip galvanized steel components ensure long-lasting durability.
