Lighting & grip trucks (mobile units)

Mobile units put a complete lighting and grip department on wheels. Our range goes from a compact LED van and a small grip and lighting truck to mid-size units and a full trailer, each loaded with lights, grip, distribution and power for the size of your production.

Trucks travel anywhere in Yucatán, Campeche and Quintana Roo with drivers and technicians, so you can move between locations without reloading.
