Administrators have been appointed at lighting equipment manufacturer Rotolight.
Image: Rotolight The Buckinghamshire-based company, which has supplied lighting products for use in films such as Ghostbusters, Captain Phillips and Skyfall along with series including Grey's Anatomy, remains optimistic that the multi award-winning brand can continue to exist.
Speaking to TVBEurope's sister title Digital Camera World, a spokesperson for the company said, The business is in administration, although we remain hopeful that the brand may have a future.
In its 14-year history, the family-run business has sold around 150,000 lights. In March 2020, just before the pandemic lockdowns began to have an impact, Rotolight secured £3.5 million in growth finance to fund global expansion, R&D and a new product pipeline.
