Staging Concepts, a provider of portable staging products and equipment, has added the Caprice Folding Acoustical Shell Tower to its acoustic portfolio. Available in early 2022, the Caprice is designed to fit within standard doorways for transport and placement in lower-height storage areas.
“Our new Caprice Acoustical Shell is ideal for use in theaters, educational facilities and community centers with limited storage space, or for venues that will use the shell tower in multiple locations within a building,” said Cindy Albrecht, director of sales and marketing for Staging Concepts. “The tower compactly folds down from its performance height for hassle-free transport through doorways and corridors. It’s a great multipurpose solution that is easy to maneuver, move and store.”
The folding design of the Caprice uses gas spring assistance and an integral pivoting T-handle control bar. Each tower is equipped with four swivel casters for transportation and positioning.
The new folding tower is available in two heights: 12 feet and 16 feet. When in its folded position, the 12-foot high performance shell can fit through a standard 36-inch-wide by 80-inch-high doorway, while the 16-foot shell can fit through a 48-inch-wide by 114-inch-high doorway. Customers can choose between 5-foot or 6-foot-wide acoustical panels with painted or high pressure laminate finish options.
