It’s about leading the way
MCL is in the business of developing audio visual and staging solutions that bring together the latest technology, specialist knowledge, top-quality personal service and competitive pricing. We specialise in conferences, exhibitions, roadshows and live events.
Whatever the scale, we seek to create solutions which reflect the needs of your business and the unique qualities of your brand, along with the realities of your budget. Whether the task in hand is staging a product launch designed to echo powerful imagery in an ad campaign, adding visual excitement to a sales conference or simply renting out a plasma screen, we’ll work in partnership with you to make sure we meet your needs beautifully.

MCL people are alive with interest for their work. They’re highly creative – and seriously professional. We invest in our staff, encouraging every new spark and building on existing skill sets. As a team, we thrive on building amazing visual experiences; but our reputation for providing a responsive, reliable, 24-hour service is an equally defining aspect of who we are.
We manage projects with energy, commitment and skill, drawing on our in-depth knowledge of current and emerging technology. We are supported by the extensive resources and vast inventory available from within MCL and the Avesco Group, which means that we can bring you the very best and most appropriate creative and technological solutions. Project management is all part of the package, enabling us to advise, guide and deliver solutions, with one key point of contact and support throughout. With over 100 staff in six UK locations, we offer highly specialised services with a friendly touch.

It’s about being there
Our network of branches across the UK means we’re able to provide a convenient, local service. Through each local MCL branch, clients can access the full range of services and technological equipment offered by the UK and overseas companies within the Avesco Group. This means we’re able to offer a truly integrated service, with everything from a single plasma screen to full technical support for the staging of a major national or international event made accessible by your local MCL team.
We manage the logistics and the fine print too, by providing less visible but equally essential services such as IT support. The staff at each of our branches have valuable local knowledge and experience, while 24/7 call-out provides extra reassurance. Whether your event is local, national or international, we’ll be with you every step of the way – night or day.

One of the most exciting aspects of our business is the range and quality of the audio visual, lighting, staging and production equipment we use. Being at the forefront of this field is rewarding not only in terms of the memorable results we can achieve for clients but also in terms of feeding the genuine passion for visual experiences which characterises our business.
We offer a huge inventory of equipment, from cameras and sound systems to the latest projection and display technology backdrops, along with industry-leading expertise in its application. Every item is well maintained and presented, with all logistical and organisational aspects managed by MCL. As experts in the field, we are well placed to offer advice and guidance on how the new technology can be harnessed for optimum effect.

It’s about living in a widescreen world
With widescreen technology, we can create simply stunning staging solutions. A bespoke, branded backdrop presented over a large, widescreen canvas offers the space for impressive displays and presentations, while our state-of-the art widescreen system gives you the flexibility and control needed to deliver a truly powerful, interactive cinematic experience.
There’s an important human dynamic at play here, too: quite simply, every one can see. So everyone knows what’s going on and feels a part of it. Picture-in-picture and multiple-source technology add further creative dimensions, all devised by MCL’s expert team and managed on site, so that you and your guests can simply sit back and enjoy the show.

At MCL we have the excellent health and safety record that you would expect from a leading company in this field. Our professionally-qualified health and safety manager works to ensure that we meet legislative standards while our project managers, with their in-depth industry experience, are well-placed to advise on specific events.
Suppliers and contractors go through a stringent approvals process, whilst risk assessments, site inductions and the close monitoring of working practices all contribute to reducing the risk of accidents or injury. Health and safety training is tailored to match the needs of each MCL employee and an appreciation of the importance of adhering to health and safety standards is firmly embedded in our culture. We also run client seminars to encourage a broader awareness not only of our own safety procedures but of legal requirements too. With health and safety top of our agenda, you can concentrate on your event.

It’s about carbon, naturally
MCL’s network of branches enables us to reduce our carbon footprint through reduced travel distances and logistical efficiencies. We are
on the road towards offering carbon-neutral event solutions and we actively promote the use of stage sets that can be recycled without harming their creative and visual effectiveness, or compromising their durability.
On a broader stage, as a company we invest in the latest low-power equipment to help meet our clients’ needs and our collective responsibility to the wider world.
