Clay Paky launched three new products for the first time internationally at Prolight + Sound 2016: the Scenius Profile (a beam shaper with a 1400 W Osram discharge lamp), the Hepikos (a 700 W washlight including a PC front lens and 5° beam angle), and the SharBar (a moving LED bar with features that transform it into a multi-beam effect light). The products were the stars of a demo/multimedia light show which accompanied the performances of some musicians and cover bands.

 

At this year’s Prolight + Sound, Clay Paky also kicked off the celebrations for its first 40 years of history. The anniversary celebration consisted of an open party at the Clay Paky booth at the end of the first day of the fair. Pio Nahum, Clay Paky CEO, told the story of the company. The celebrations were attended by hundreds of guests: trade professionals, distributors and friends.

 

During the event, Clay Paky presented its distributors with “Ambassador of Light” awards. “Best Distributor of the Year" was awarded to Ambersphere Solutions, Clay Paky's United Kingdom and Ireland distributor. ACT Lighting, distributor for North America, won the "Best Performance" award for the second year in a row. The "Most Progressive Award 2015" went to Dimatec, France. The "Most Loyal Distributor" award went to the German company Lightpower. The award for "Best Open Day" went to the Spanish Stonex, while the "Amazing Determination" award was given to the Greek distributor Omikron ProLighting.

 

Clay Paky's new logo was presented to the Press for the first time exclusively at a joint Clay Paky/Osram press conference. CEO Pio Nahum explained the reason for the logo: “This year Clay Paky is celebrating its 40th anniversary. This milestone is the perfect chance to update our corporate identity. By adopting a more 'modern' design, the goal is to pave the way towards the future, always ready for new challenges.” The new logo will come officially into use from the end of 2016.

 

The Opus - German Stage Award was presented this year to Björn Hermann. He received the award for the production of the Fraunhofer Annual Meeting in 2015, which featured the creative use of moving light as a focus for the performance on stage. In his acceptance speech, Björn Hermann cited Clay Paky Sharpys as indispensable tools to achieve the desired result.
