Stage Rent: Prolyte Space Roof
About the project
By investing in the Prolyte Space Roof, Stage Rent in Italy made sure that they can set the next steps for many years to come and cope with the growing demand for their events and festivals. Their Space Roof has a standard coverage area of 56 by 24 meters and a clearance of 16.2 meters and is a fully modular system. With the available equipment the roof can be build in several sizes. In the design process also further growth of the roof was taken into consideration, so in the case of bigger demands the Prolyte Space Roof can be extended.
The Space roof gives designers and riggers unprecedented possibilities, with an option to make a rigging point on every squaremeter. In addition, the roof structure with the Space frames lends itself to walk in, which makes working in this roof safe and easy.
Although the training and first build would usually take place on a location from either the customer or at the Prolyte premises,the Space roof was delivered immediately for a first event. The training, given by professional Prolyte trainers, was also aphysical load-in for the roof. The first user,
Stage Rent, had made the site available a week earlier so that the
Stage Rent team could be properly trained.

About the Space Roof
The Space Roof is a modular roof system based on a space frame structure. The roof can be suspended from standard C52T Prolyte towers or Prolyte steel towers. The aluminum
profiles combine with special node points to create a roof structure ofany desired size or shape. The Space Roof can be
built up to 56 x 24meters in size. The specially designed top canopy guarantees efficientwater drainage. Due to the complexity and size of the Space Roof,quotations are made on request only, allowing us to match yourrequirements with the possibilities this system offers.
Strong points
- Modular roof system, modular sizes possible
- Extremely high load-bearing capacity
- Efficient transportation due to very compact transport volume (approx. 1/6th of a comparable truss roof)
- Integrated rigging points
- Safe and easy rigging access due to 2m high fram and measurements cpmply with standard sacffolding systems
- Stage sub-structure needs minimum amount of diagonals, allowing for easy creation of corridors underneath
Including
- Tension gear and steel wires
- Structural report according to DIN 4112 / EN 13814C
- Ballast solution
- 8cm wide profiles
