2016 Annual Review

SugarFactory looks back on 2016!
Over the past year, SugarFactory has once again had the privilege of facilitating many wonderful events. From conferences to company parties and from music videos to photo shoots. The new showreel provides an overview of the events that took place in 2016. In the meantime, we are already looking forward to many new productions.

Watch the showreel above to get a good impression of the events in 2016.

Improved facilities at SugarFactory

The SugarFactory event location has been in full development since its inception in 2014. We are constantly working to professionalize the location and optimize the facilities at SugarFactory. We can look back with pride on the developments that have taken place over the past year.

Warm and acoustic

One of the developments we are particularly proud of is the renovated roof of de Middenfabriek. The new roof offers many advantages, including optimized heating. The insulation of the roof keeps the heat inside better and reduces the need for heating during events.
In addition, the insulating roof panels improve the acoustics in the venue and reduce outside noise. An additional advantage is the permanent blackout, which benefits image projection in the venue.

Fiber optics

Internet speed has been greatly improved to up to 450 Mb/s. Thanks to an upgrade of the fiber optic connection, we now have stable internet and more capacity! The professional WiFi network at the venue allows guests to make unlimited use of the best internet.

LED & rigging

A year ago, AV specialist Bazelmans began installing standard LED lighting and rigging throughout the venue. Following completion in April 2016, the venue is now lit as standard and no additional lighting needs to be installed to illuminate the decor and details.

Another floor?!

In the course of 2017, we will be adding a completely new floor to our offering. Work is still underway on the third floor, where two spacious sub-rooms will be available in the future with a view of the distinctive atrium. In a subsequent phase, the third floor will also be accessible via a passenger elevator.

As much as possible, old materials are being used for the developments. This preserves the original look and feel of the former factory in the event location and ensures that no historical material is wasted. Although the event location is ready for use, we continue to make improvements and welcome feedback from our guests.
