  • Clay Paky's world headquarters and manufacturing facility in the heart of Italy is responsible for developing and producing some of the most iconic and forward-thinking fixtures and lighting technologies in the world. I've been wanting to visit for a while now, and I wanted to bring you along as well. In this video, we travel to Bergamo, Italy to see their assembly line and quality control processes.
    Thanks to the entire team at Clay Paky for allowing me into their facility to see how they make their products.

    Thanks Alena and Marco for being such wonderful hosts :) we had very limited time to see everything they had to offer, so I’m sorry about the rushed nature of this video in some parts. Wish I could have spent more time there. Oh well, guess that just means I’ll have to go back sometime soon.
