How the Pavilion bay runs in a working week
The Pavilion page refers to our demo bay in the west wing. It gives buyers a place to review cutting cell layouts, tooling choices and sample work before the specification is signed off.
Pavilion bay in Durban is used to compare cutting cell layouts before a specification is signed off. Salt air, humidity and the route into the west wing affect how sample stock is stored, how tooling is wiped down, and which checks matter on arrival. Buyers normally review the material, edge quality and access needs together, rather than treating the bay as a generic showroom stop.
Bring the first sample sheet, offcut or profile drawing with you when access has been arranged by email. At the bay, notes are usually made against the cell layout, the tooling on hand and the sample work on the bench so nothing is reconstructed later from memory. Photos taken during the visit are most useful when they show the setup position, the cut face and any hold-down or guide in use.
West wing review points
Most visitors leave Pavilion bay with marked-up layout notes, a tighter tooling list and a record of which sample pieces were reviewed. The useful outcome here is not a pile of options. It is a specification trail that links the bay visit to the final cutting cell decision.
Before extending the brief, match the Pavilion bay discussion to the showroom path and the sample work reviewed on site. Check the tooling references and visitor notes once more before you send anything through the contact form. If you write in, include one image of the current machine or cut result so the bay context stays clear.

Durban bay working conditions
Pavilion bay sits in Durban and operates as a demo bay, so visits have to account for building access, sample handling and the limits of a west wing review space. Some buyers arrive with a settled machine concept, while others are still weighing table size, guarding, extraction and tooling combinations. The bay works best when those points are named clearly before anyone travels.
Coastal air in Durban puts more attention on storage, wipe-down routines and the condition of exposed metal between demonstrations. A useful bay session checks the sample cut, the tooling choice and the layout fit, rather than treating the visit as a general walkabout. Where power supply, extraction or operator access could alter the final installation, those notes should be captured during the review.

Notes to file after Pavilion bay
Durban
Record the bay visit while the sample sequence, tooling references and layout comments are still exact. Keep the record with the project file so a buyer can trace what was seen in the west wing demo bay before the specification was signed off. Include the Durban location in the record to avoid mixing it with other showroom notes.
