We have collaborated with Arctos on several foreign productions. We are a service company that covers all the coordination related to each production and have been working with Arctos on anything relating to equipment and technical crew. This is a synergy that has only brought positive results so far and therefore we will continue our cooperation steadily in the near future. Arctos, and especially the owner, Vassilis, and the whole team of associates are excellent professionals, knowledgeable in their field, direct in service, flexible in solving problems and above all humane and pleasant to work with.

When talking about Arctos, I would first like to begin with Vassilis. As head of the rental, he sets the tone; one of immediacy, honesty, impeccable service, and open dialogue with the producer. The company treats its customers as if they were friends and family, something that is very important to me. Arctos has lived up to all circumstances, large, medium, and small projects and can find solutions to all producers’ technical requirements. In a nutshell, I believe Arctos is a boutique, not a supermarket, and that is something that matters.

Working with the Arctos team is always special: not only the enormous choice of high-quality material, but also the professional follow-up and guidance during the preproduction and shooting speak volumes. There are many reasons to take your production to Greece but being able to work together with a reliable partner like Arctos is a very important one for me.

I have been renting equipment from Arctos Films S.A for over 15 years, as it offers fast service and excellent equipment at reasonable prices. What I can say with certainty is that Vassilis is an invaluable collaborator because of his real understanding of film making and his commitment to see a production through in the best possible way, thus providing solutions before problems are created.
