BOLTON Wanderers is enjoying the benefits of a new media suite following a makeover by sponsor SPIE, the independent European electrical and mechanical engineering and heating, ventilation and air conditioning services specialists.

As a sponsor, SPIE’s branding will be visible on the backdrop of manager Neil Lennon's interviews until 2017 and bespoke ads will appear in match programmes.

SPIE says the refurbishment brings the quality of Bolton Wanderers reception and media suite up to Premier League standards.

The club’s media suite is used for all pre-and post-match media activities including manager press conferences. Following the renovation the club also intends to hold pre-game media briefings in the facility.

During the re-fit, SPIE’s Facilities Services division installed a new, energy-efficient lighting scheme in order to improve illumination quality, making the suite lighter and brighter. New flooring, a fresh media desk area and a bespoke, raised manager’s desk were also fitted.

Facilities co-ordinator at Bolton Wanderers, Jenni Grant, said: “SPIE was the only partner for this project.

"We wanted to work with a supplier that had a strong local presence and could offer a specialist range of services, from electrical installation to facilities management. SPIE continues to work with the Club beyond this re-fit, carrying out barrier and turnstile maintenance at our Stadium and Training Ground.”

Commercial manager for facilities services northern at SPIE UK, Mark Robison added: “Bolton Wanderers is a progressive and proactive club, an attitude that fits the SPIE approach perfectly.

"Feedback from the club as well as the media has been extremely positive; journalists, as well as the Bolton management, have both noted and are pleased with the improvement in the club’s facilities, feeling comfortable and happy when working at the ground.

"We look forward to continuing our relationship with Bolton Wanderers, and hopefully supporting them when they return to the Premier League.”
