Revolving Stages Turn Heads in Dubai

Collaboration between Metel Trading of Dubai and the export and technical departments at British Turntable Company has resulted in three of the UK's revolving stages being chosen to enhance the sales area of one of the largest - and newest - car showrooms in the world.

The 7m diameter, 3000kg capacity units have been used in different ways to create an individual look for different vehicle brands being promoted.

Simple podium constructions raise the profile of the latest version of the popular Toyota Corolla and the luxurious Lexus LS 430, where the display has been further enhanced by some imaginative lighting from below the revolve. By contrast, the new Toyota Rav 4 is given the special treatment of a flush-fitting unit. Each treatment complements the surrounding area, adding style and elegance to the showroom, while affording customers all-round visibility from a single viewpoint.

Metel Trading is delighted with the effect. Working with the architects and consultants since the early design stages, Metel has been involved with the complete installation, co-ordinating activities with civil and electro-mechanical contractors to bring this project to a successful conclusion.
The company has also been impressed with the level of support British Turntable has offered them throughout implementation of the project. Shashank Rao of Metel comments, "British Turntable has provided us with quality, both in their excellent revolves and in their expert advice. We have been able to call on them for assistance and support whenever we needed it, right from initial concept, through the design stages, up to final installation and commissioning. Our confidence in their ability to deliver has helped enormously in bringing this prestigious project to fruition. We are looking forward to working with them in the very future."
