Wherever you’re shooting. Whatever you’re lighting. Whenever you’re up against it. On lot or on location, MBS Equipment Company has the resources to deliver for you every time. With our headquarters in Sylmar, California, we go beyond just checking inventory off a list, we become a part of your total lighting and grip solution. We can join forces with you from the beginning, incorporating new technology and ideas from the first camera and lighting test on through production. No matter what your challenges, we’re there from start to finish.
As the largest studio based equipment company in the world, part of The MBS Group, we strive to provide a worldwide reach, all inclusive industry services, and creative vision and experience to help TV, film and event productions solve problems, save money, and win awards.

We continue to stay committed to providing a safe and healthy work environment for our employees and clients.
With one of the largest overall equipment inventories worldwide, MBSE has the newest technology and ability and willingness to find innovative and creative lighting solutions. We help with incorporating LED and conventional lighting techniques for both general set lighting and fixtures work. MBS Equipment Company is here to help you reach your creative vision!
With our full fleet of trucks and generators, we have an extensive national and international outreach for any production.
As problem solvers, one of the problems we frequently solve is saving money. We go beyond being an expendables supplier to being a single-source on-site resource. From gels and globes to hardware and ropes, to lumber and paint. All of it at competitive prices thanks to our volume and scope. We have the locations and inventory to get you what you need quickly.
When you can’t actually be there, but need the backing to show you are — we have you covered. (Literally.) We have a large selection of blue and green screen backings for digital and chromakey, solids, diffusions and reflectives, as well as other grip backings and technical fabrics. Sewing services are available for custom sizing and repair. Whatever shape your production takes – when you need it, we got your back — and your backing.
To stay ahead of the curve, MBS Equipment Company turns to key industry leaders through a consortium think tank dubbed MBSi, or MBS Innovations, as a resource for sharing thoughts and ideas on industry trends in lighting technology and concepts as well as ways to implement and develop solutions for the future.
Whether it is creating our own technology, helping others create theirs, or just thinking creatively with the tools we have in front of us, we are result driven. Thinking, sharing, and innovating, the excitement begins with a flick of a switch. Check out our product portfolio here.
