Dear friends and customers:

Founded in 1946, Wenger Corporation has decades of experience serving the Performing Arts market by engineering and building the highest-quality products for all kinds of performance venues around the world. Throughout that time we became your associates and stewards of your needs, resulting in industry breakthroughs like our Diva® Acoustical Shells, which were recently redesigned to provide even greater performance along with industry-unique features.

Today, our focus and investment in the Performing Arts has never been greater, as we seek to aggressively grow our business on a global basis by providing innovative products and superior service levels to our customers and partners. This is our first catalog targeted exclusively towards this market, and it certainly will not be our last.

Our increased focus on this market is also evident by the fact that we have also launched a new website dedicated to theatre and arts professionals. It’s a vibrant mix of interesting news, useful information, and innovative products. Based on our research, it should be a valuable collection of what industry professionals most desire in a website. Please check it out at www.yourperformancepartners.com.

One thing is certain; our commitment to providing superior products and services that enable our customers and partners to fulfill their visions for great performances is what drives all of us at Wenger. We appreciate your inspiration and look forward to serving you now and in the years ahead.

Sincerely,

Chris SimpsonPresident and CEOWenger Corporation

We Share Your Passion for Performance.For all of us it starts somewhere, that need to be part of the show. For us it dates back to 1885, when stagehand John Clancy thought he could create a better rigging system. He did, and today JR Clancy is the leading manufacturer of theatrical stage equipment in the United States. Throughout that time we’ve been there with you on more than 100,000 rigging jobs, from the grand opera house to the local high school.

And dependability? JR Clancy is the first North American rigging company to have its Quality Management System certified to the rigorous ISO 9001:2008 standard.

In Wenger Corporation, we found a mirror company with similar origins and an identical dedication to superior quality and genuine customer service. Today, as partners, JR Clancy and Wenger bring you nearly 200 years of experience and expertise. Chances are, we’ve solved the very challenges facing you. And if your situation is wholly unique, we’re exactly the partners you want.

For as long as we’ve been developing high-quality, durable products to meet the needs of our customers, we’ve also been exploring ways to be better stewards of the environment we share. Whether it’s the nearly 1,000 tons of materials we recycled last year or the energy-efficient lighting in our plant, our goals have always been green. Here are some of the ways we’re helping reduce, reuse and recycle:

• Green cleaning agents and a non-metallic conversion coating

• Securing properly sized raw materials eliminates waste

• Computer-optimized cutting processes improve yield

• ISO quality-improvement tools reduce scrap

• Wenger delivery trucks are built with the latest clean-burning diesel emission-control technologies

• Stretch-wrapping eliminates corrugated waste• Post-installation packaging is returned and reused or recycled• Pallets are reused or remanufactured• Instant foam packaging — free of CFCs and HCFCs — is used when possible

simplifying the lEED Certification process As a member of the LEED Construction Initiative, Wenger has the insights and experience to make the LEED certification process easier for our customers to understand and attain.

Implementing the philosophy of the UsGBC As a member of the US Green Building Council, the group that developed LEED, Wenger is dedicated to fulfilling USGBC’s mission to promote green building practices. We understand and embrace

the principles behind the USGBC and its LEED Initiative, which is your guaran-tee that once you start down the road to LEED certification, you will be officially and enthusiastically supported every step of the way. www.usgbc.org

meeting FsC CoC certification Recognized by LEED, the Forest Stewardship Council is an independent, not-for-profit organization established to promote the responsible management of the world’s forests. FSC Chain-of-Custody (CoC) certified products carry a label certifying that FSC-tracked material is used throughout the production process. Wenger’s certification is pending. www.fsc.org

meeting GREENGUARD certification The mission of The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute (GEI) is to protect human health and quality of life through programs that help reduce chemical exposure and improve indoor air quality. To date, GREENGUARD has certified many Wenger products including folio cabinets, music posture chairs and music stands with more certification to come. www.greenguard.org

Look for this symbol throughout our catalog to indicate products that are environmentally friendly

NEW PRODUCTSSome of our breakthroughs are easy to see, others need to be experienced, but each is an improvement in performance and value over anything else available. Virtually every Wenger product goes through a redesign assessment as we continuously strive to improve our product line. Sometimes that means a product redesign, sometimes an all-new design. Either way, our pursuit of perfection never stops and always leads to great products like these.

stageTek® staging and seated RisersOne of our most exciting innovations in years! The StageTek line of decks, legs and accessories is extremely versatile, rugged and easy to set up. The design is simple with no folding legs, hinges or assemblies. We’ve even made moving it easy, with rounded edges for easy gripping and a lighter weight. And we haven’t sacrificed durability. In fact, StageTek has higher load ratings than most comparable staging systems.

BUIlDING? – WE CAN HElp

Wenger’s performance spaces planning GuideEverything you need to understand the new construction process and what you can do to most effectively organize your objectives to make sure your new facility is the best it can be.

“Wenger’s Planning Guide gave me some real practical ideas which we used in two music facilities – they turned out very well. I’m amazed that some architects don’t take advantage of the materials Wenger has available. The Planning Guide is easy to read and offers excellent information.”

– Edward K. Skahan, Vice President, Director of Design, Kluber, Skahan & Associates, Inc., Batavia, Illinois

Expertise you should leverage early and often.The success of your new facility depends on your plan. Call Wenger before you start and we’ll help you design your ideal environment, perfectly balancing budget, needs, space, and traffic like no other resource. For nearly seven decades we’ve helped thousands of facility planners get the most out of every dollar for new construction, renovations, additions, and improvements. In fact, no other company in the world has spent more time with architects or studied more types of music facilities.

Your Wenger representative is in tune with rehearsal, performance and theatre spaces. We’ll will help you make smart, cost-effective decisions on everything from product selection to space allocation to stretching a tight budget. You’ll also benefit from our close working relationship with architects, ensuring your satisfaction by providing them with a trusted resource for the complexities of performance-space design.

Please keep in mind we can also collaborate with your design team and give you the support and resources you need. It’s also important to know that from concept to completion, putting Wenger experience and expertise to work doesn’t cost you a dime.

The planning process for these types of facilities can vary from project to project. Fortunately every process follows a timeline of similar steps that we can help you prepare for. We can share our expertise and experience in this process to help you make yours a success.

Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion, Houston, Texas

“We found the Wenger Planning Guide tremendously helpful from start to finish. This includes the rule-of-thumb guidelines on room size and volume, information about buffer zones and room adjacencies, and storage cabinet advice.”

Optional Access DoorsExit stage left. Access doors allow performers and instruments to move on and off stage without moving a tower.

Ceiling panelsForte ceiling panels complete your full shell by providing critical acoustic and aesthetic elements. They ensure that musicians can hear each other while projecting sound to the audience, rather than having the sound lost in the fly loft. Forte ceilings also create a complete aesthetic appearance that enhances the look of every performance. Optional integrated lighting provides uniform lighting throughout the shell. Forte ceilings are suspended from typical stage rigging systems.

pERFORmANCE ACOUsTICAl TREATmENTs

Working with acousticians and architects, we use our decades of expertise to identify and help engineer the right solutions to treat any acoustical problems in your audience area: hot spots where sound concentrates, dead spots music never reaches, and flutter echoes and excessive reverberation. By using a combination of ceiling clouds and acoustical panels, we’ve already helped hundreds of performing arts centers and world-class concert halls. With a call to your Wenger representative, we can do the same for you.

EACH pANEl Is TUNED TO A pARTICUlAR ACOUsTICAl TAsK

Wenger has engineered five unique technical designs, in dozens of sizes, shapes, and diffusion angles and finish options, to yield a broad selection of acoustical panels.

Wenger acoustical panels add visual appeal. You can choose from more than 48 attractive fabric colors to coordinate with other Wenger products, and complement your color scheme.

Environmentally responsible

Fabric made of 100% recycled material

ABsORBER pANElsSuited for a wide range of music environments. Designed to neutralize the reverberation and loudness of a room. Engineered to absorb sound across a broad frequency range for effective, balanced abatement.

TypE I CONvEx DIFFUsER pANElsDesigned to scatter and blend sound, these panels diffuse middle- to high-range frequencies that define timbre and articulation.

TypE II CONvEx DIFFUsER pANElsSignificantly larger than Type I panels, but with the same shape. In addition to sound-diffusion qualities, they selectively absorb low-frequency sound.

qUADRATIC CEIlING DIFFUsER pANElsEngineered to provide the most effective diffusion in the 750 Hz to 3300 Hz range. These 4' x 4' (122 cm x 122 cm) diffusers are designed as easy-to-apply ceiling in-lays.

pyRAmID DIFFUsER pANElsImpact-resistant ceiling diffuser panels feature an offset pyramid shape to treat specific acoustical applications. Ceiling mounts in 4' x 4' (122 cm x 122 cm) and 2' x 2' (61 cm x 61 cm) sizes. Wall-mount in 4' x 4' (122 cm x 122 cm) only.

solving Acoustical problemsHot spots. Dead spots. Flutter echoes. Excessive reverberation. They’re all acoustical problems that can make rehearsals nearly impossible and performances disappointing.

Wenger has the acoustical products — and decades of accumulated expertise — to help you optimize the sound in performing arts centers. Call your Wenger representative to discover the acoustic quality hundreds of performance spaces are already enjoying.

A great, acoustically balanced room starts with a well-thought out plan.

TUNABlE ACOUsTIC pANElsThe revolutionary acoustical panel that removes compromise from any room.

How do you create the optimal acoustical space when performances change, or the type and size of group changes? Impossible – until now. Wenger’s new tunable panel is an innovative design that adapts its absorption and diffusion capability to create a “flexible” room acoustically. The panel changes as quickly as you can turn a handle.

soundlok® sOUND-IsOlATION ROOmssoundlok® sOUND-IsOlATION ROOms

Practice can be difficult when a musician’s instrument or singing interferes with another performer who is trying to practice at the same time. In many buildings, adjoining rooms offer little or no sound isolation between them. Recording and broadcast studios need the same protection from outside noise. SoundLok offers a better solution than trying to build or re-build soundproofing into your facility.

Wenger pioneered sound isolation in practice space, and we continue to use the most advanced technologies to set new standards. That’s why we can guarantee the performance of our sound-isolation practice rooms. Our modular rooms offer a clean, attractive look with closure panels for a seamless installation. And each room is relocat-able — so you can move it down the hall or across town as your facility needs change.
