Client

British Embassy Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Location

The British Embassy in Riyadh is located in the Diplomatic Quarter of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It is a secure compound that houses the diplomatic staff, consular services, and other administrative offices.

The challenge

The British Embassy Riyadh is set to host a grand celebration for King Charles III’s birthday, an event of significant importance within the diplomatic calendar. The primary challenge was to rapidly transform an outdoor tennis court into a sophisticated event space. However, due to site restrictions, the use of heavy machinery and equipment was not feasible.

The Stadia X Solution

Stadia X, a lightweight, modular flooring system, was selected as the ideal solution for this project. Key benefits of Stadia X include:

  • Rapid Installation: The modular design allows for quick and efficient installation, even in challenging conditions.
  • Lightweight: The system is easy to transport and handle, making manual installation a viable option.
  • Durable: Stadia X is designed to withstand heavy foot traffic and adverse weather conditions.
  • Versatile: The flooring can be customised to fit various sizes, accommodating the specific requirements of the event space.

Project Execution

Our team worked closely with the British Embassy to develop a comprehensive installation plan. Despite the manual installation requirements, the lightweight nature of Stadia X allowed for efficient and timely deployment. The flooring was installed seamlessly, creating a stylish and functional event space.

Outcomes

The successful installation of Stadia X set the foundations so this tennis court could be transformed into a stunning venue for the King’s birthday celebration. The flooring will provide a safe, durable, and aesthetically pleasing surface for guests to enjoy the festivities.

By overcoming the challenges of limited access and manual installation, this project showcases the inventive thinking from The Box Group teams, plus the versatility and effectiveness of Stadia X as a temporary flooring solution for high-profile events in highly restricted locations.
