Local AV specialist for Rotterdam hospitality
We’ve been in Rotterdam since 1999. Our warehouse is on the Industrieweg in Rotterdam, our team lives in the region, and you’ll find most of our hospitality references inside the ring road. For Rotterdam hospitality operators that means: short lines of communication, a quick visit for a site survey, and service within reach if something comes up.
As an AUDAC Certified Partner we install fixed sound systems for restaurants, cafés, bars, beach clubs and hotel lobbies in Rotterdam and the immediate area.

The benefits of a local Rotterdam AV partner
Short travel time For a site visit we’re often at your door within a few hours or the next day. For a fault on a Saturday evening that’s the difference between “solved today” and “maybe Monday”.
Knowledge of the Rotterdam hospitality reality Sound permits, council enforcement, buildings from different eras with their own acoustic challenges. We know the city and the challenges that come with it.
A network in the region The architects, interior designers, builders and fellow AV companies we work with are all in and around Rotterdam. Short lines, quick to act.
Tailored maintenance With tailor-made maintenance we keep your DANTE installation in shape: periodic inspection, firmware and software updates and an agreed response time for faults. Need a visit? Then we are there quickly.

Our approach for Rotterdam projects
We start with a free site visit. We come round, look at the space, ask what isn’t working now and what you want to achieve. On that basis we draw up a design and send a transparent quote.
For projects in Rotterdam we often schedule the installation outside opening hours or during quiet periods, so your closed time is kept to a minimum. We’ve known many of our clients for years, and with some we work on a new location or expansion every couple of years.
Frequently asked questions
