What is a Stadium Tower?A stadium light tower (Stadium Mast) is a multi-sided or lattice structure designed for installing high-power floodlights at a great height. Its main goal is to provide high and uniform luminous lux for the playing field or large area. Its main difference from a telescopic light tower lies in the angle and direction of the light.
Unlike urban light towers that distribute light 360 degrees, a stadium light tower is designed so that the projectors illuminate only a specific section (such as a football field), preventing the spread of light to unnecessary areas. This mechanism is known as “curtain lighting.”At Ehdas Gostar, we produce various types of stadium light towers in fixed-head and movable-head models, with heights from 12 to 30 meters, complying with the most stringent standards.The stadium light tower distributes light in a concentrated and curtain-like manner.The choice between a fixed basket and a movable basket depends on the height and maintenance budget.All towers must be produced with ST37 steel and ISO 1461 hot-dip galvanizing coating.For televised matches, the luminous lux must comply with FIFA standards (1000 to 1500 lux).To inquire about the stadium tower price, technical specifications (height and number of projectors) must be provided to the manufacturer.
Stadium Tower EGNP-BP1005The Stadium Tower with model code EGNP-BP1005 is a heavy metal structure with an internal or external ladder and a large platform at the top, designed for installing high-intensity projectors to provide extensive lighting for stadiums, airports, or industrial areas.

This tower is available in high elevations, up to approximately 35 meters.T1 / T2 (Start/End Thickness): The thickness of the metal sheets in the lower section (T1) and the upper section (T2).M1 / M2 (Bottom/Top Section): The dimensions or diameter of the tower in the lower section (M1) and the upper section (M2).B (Base Plate): The dimensions of the base plate’s cross-section and its thickness. Large base plates indicate the necessity for high stability against weight and wind loads.Applications and Advantages of Stadium Light Tower EGNP-BP1005Stadium Lighting: Providing sufficient light for major sporting events and television coverage.Industrial Centers and Airports: Lighting large and operational areas that require night visibility.Maintenance Platforms: Equipped with a ladder for easy and safe access for personnel to install and maintain projectors.Exceptional Strength: Designed to withstand the weight of the equipment tray and the wind load resulting from the installation of several heavy projectors.
Applications of Stadium TowersAlthough stadium light towers are tied to sports, their applications extend far beyond. In the specialized field of street structures at Ehdas Gostar, demand for them is increasing in the following environments:Stadiums and Playing Fields: To provide light for matches and training.Ports and Docks: For night-time loading and unloading operations.Refineries and Industrial Sites: For surveillance and safety in high-risk areas.Terminals and Large Parking Lots: Providing sufficient visibility for security and traffic.
Types of Stadium Towers: Fixed or Movable Basket?Stadium light towers are offered in two main models, and the choice of either depends on the required height, access for repairs, and budgetary considerations.Comparison of Stadium Towers with Fixed and Movable BasketsFeatureMovable Basket Tower (Movable Head)Fixed Basket Tower (Fixed Head)Suitable HeightAbove 18 meters (recommended up to 30 meters)Below 18 meters (ladder or lift can be used)Maintenance MechanismWinch and Gearbox (Basket lowers for repairs)Requires a crane or lift for accessInitial CostHigher (due to the presence of motor, winch, and wire rope)Lower (simpler structure)Ease of RepairsVery Easy (Repairs done at ground level)Difficult and Costly (Requires equipment rental)Common ApplicationLarge and International StadiumsSmall Fields, Industrial Areas
Technical and Engineering Specifications of the Stadium TowerProducing a quality stadium light tower requires strict adherence to technical specifications and engineering standards to ensure the structure is resistant to environmental factors and provides the necessary illumination. Ehdas Gostar produces all stadium light towers with the following details:Key Technical Specifications and Construction MaterialsStructure Material: Use of high-tensile ST37 steel sheets.Protective Coating: Hot-dip galvanizing in accordance with the international standard ISO 1461 to guarantee at least 30 years of corrosion resistance.Wind Resistance: Designed based on wind speed maps of 120 km/h and more (depending on the installation region).Number of Sides: Usually 12 to 16 sides for tall towers to ensure balanced load distribution.Sports Lighting Standards (FIFA, AFC) and the Importance of Luminous LuxFor important matches, compliance with the lighting standards of organizations such as FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) and AFC (Asian Football Confederation) is mandatory. These standards determine the level of Luminous Lux and its uniformity across the field surface.Note: For international games with television coverage, the minimum luminous lux on the ground must be 1000 to 1500 lux, while for local games, this amount is reduced to 500 lux. (Source: FIFA and CIE – International Commission on Illumination standards)Stadium Tower Lighting: From Metal Halide to LEDCurrently, the use of standard LED projectors is considered a significant competitive advantage over old metal halide lamps:Higher Efficiency: Less energy consumption with more light.Better CRI (Color Rendering Index): Improves the quality of television broadcasting.Longer Service Life: Reduces the frequency of maintenance for fixed or movable basket stadium towers.
