Theatre & Stage Winches – Engineered for Safety and Precision
In the stage and entertainment industry, safety is everything—especially when it comes to working under suspended loads. Winches used in these environments must meet the highest standards to protect performers, crew, and audiences alike.
To address this need, a unified European standard—EN 17206—was introduced in May 2020. This standard defines strict safety and design requirements for winches used in the entertainment industry, filling a long-standing gap previously covered only by commercial, non-European standards like DGUV 17 and BGV C1.
