A-SAFE, a provider of workplace safety solutions, has completed a new installation at Leeds Bradford Airport’s new terminal extension and baggage area, strengthening safety across key operational areas.
The project builds on A-SAFE’s aviation expertise, with its systems chosen by major international airports including London Heathrow, London Gatwick, New York JFK, Abu Dhabi, Hong Kong and Milan-Malpensa.
Statistics from the UK Civil Aviation Authority show passenger numbers reached more than 292 million in 2024, a 7% increase on the previous year. This growth is putting airports under pressure to maintain performance at higher volumes.
James Smith, Co-CEO of A-SAFE, said: “Airports are under growing pressure to move more passengers, more quickly, without compromising safety.
“Meeting that demand requires safety solutions that do more than protect assets and instead keep operations moving while cutting the risk of disruption.
“Leeds Bradford is the latest example across our aviation projects of how Atlas systems help airports operate at scale with confidence while keeping everyone and everything safe.”
Gemma Whitehead, Head of Health, Safety, Environment & Compliance at Leeds Bradford Airport, said: “Safety is at the heart of everything we do at Leeds Bradford Airport, and this latest installation by A-SAFE is a testament to that commitment.
“Their expertise in aviation environments, combined with close collaboration with Farrans Construction and Millar Design & Management, has helped us enhance protection for our passengers, staff and assets in critical operational areas. We’re proud to work with partners who share our high standards for safety and innovation.”
The project was delivered in partnership with Farrans Construction, the main contractor, and Millar Design & Management, a consultancy with specialist airport experience.
