Himoinsa, meanwhile, said it planned to introduce
its new lighting towers at the show as well as its
rental range of generator sets, featuring EU Stage
IIIA-compliant engines.
The manufacturer has expanded its Apolo range
of lighting towers to include new products such as
the compact eco, compact heavy duty, box, mini kit
and new LED lamp versions. Products on show at
IRE will include the new Apolo Box lighting tower,
characterised mainly for its size and square shape
– dimensions that are said to make it easier for
customers to transport.
Indeed, Himoinsa said up to 20 units could
be stacked and transported in a 40 ft (12.2 m)
container. The Apolo Box tower has an autonomy
ofmore than 100hours and is offered to themarket
with four 1000 W bulbs, but can also be supplied
with six 240 W LED bulbs. Its hydraulic telescopic
mast can reach a height of 9m.
And the company’s Compact Heavy Duty lighting
tower boasts a reinforced chassis and trailer
coupler. It consists of a tower kit that can reach
9m tall and generator set, both incorporated into a
compact andbalancedmobileunit. Its six 240W LED
light bulbs are said to extend the service life of its
spotlights up to50000hours, as opposed to regular
spotlights that usually offer up to 2000hours.
Himoinsa’s rental sector generator range boasts
power outputs from 30 to 665 kVA. At IRE, the
company said it would present the 30 kVAHRYW 30,
85 kVA-HRFW85 and 150 kVA-HRFWmodels.

Fun-run to support children’s charity
Exhibitors and delegates to the IRE and APEX exhibitions will have the chance to raise funds for a
deserving Netherlands-based charity by taking part in a 5 km fun-run to be held at the RAI convention
centre on 26 June.
The run, which will start at the RAI exhibition centre at 7.00am, is in support of the children’s charity
CliniClowns, whichprovides entertainment for childrenundergoing treatment inhospitals throughout the
Netherlands aswell as hospitals in Europe, Australia and theUS.
The charity’s aim is to offer a welcome diversion for children in hospital; “Not only because these
kids deserve it, but also because they benefit greatly from it. Distraction and fun bothwork to relax the
children and reduce their stress levels.”
Runnersareencouraged toobtainsponsorship for the run, eitherpersonallyor through theiremployers.
The IRE and APEX exhibitions are covering the costs of organisation, so every Euro raised by runnerswill
go to the charity.
A similar run during the 2011 APEX show raised €3690 for the Ronald McDonald Huis in Maastricht, a
charity that provides accommodation for families visiting their children inhospital.
The start and the finishof the runareclose to theAmsterdamRAI exhibitioncentre, andmost of the trail
is off-road in theBeatrix Park. A cyclist will accompany the runners.
