HMI & Tungsten Lights

Here is the breakdown. We source HMI and tungsten lighting fixtures in the wattages and configurations your gaffer specifies, drawing on local rental inventories and setting up power distribution and spare lamps so setups proceed without interruption. Our team supplies ARRI M-series and K5600 HMIs, ARRI and Mole-Richardson tungsten Fresnels, ballasts and the grip to control them. Belgium's deep gear-rental market, concentrated in Brussels and across Flanders and Wallonia and built up by the scale of Tax Shelter-funded service production, keeps a wide lighting inventory close to most locations. The compact geography means fixtures reach Ghent, Antwerp or the Ardennes within a couple of hours, and for large fixtures or pro units not held locally, gear moves freely by road from France, the Netherlands and Germany under EU single-market rules with no carnet needed for intra-EU transport.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Power planning is central to HMI and tungsten work in Belgium. Mains runs on the EU-standard 230V at 50Hz. Our team works with skilled Belgian gaffers and electricians who know both the fixtures and local power systems, setting up distro, dimmers and power packs support for big HMI loads. Belgium's temperate maritime climate, mild but often wet and cloudy, shapes fixture choice: the soft grey northern light frequently means HMIs are used to lift and shape an already diffuse ambience rather than overpower it, and exterior fixtures need rain protection and careful condensation management against the damp air. For non-EU shoots, lighting packages clear through Belgian customs on ATA Carnets, with Brussels Airport and Liege Airport, one of Europe's largest cargo hubs, as the main freight gateways.
