Passive fire protection specialist Adaston has secured a £1.5 million contract to deliver fire safety works at one of the City of London’s best-known commercial office developments.
The 18-month project, for real estate giant Savills, will see Harrogate-based Adaston deliver extensive fire-stopping works alongside targeted fire door upgrades throughout the 21-storey office building.
All works are being carried out during night shifts to minimise disruption to occupiers in the fully operational building.
The commercial tower spans more than 600,000 sq ft and is recognised as one of the City’s most prominent office developments. The project further strengthens Adaston’s growing presence in London’s high-value commercial retrofit market.
Paul Ward, Acting Managing Director of Adaston, said:
Securing a project of this scale at a flagship commercial development like this is a significant milestone for the business.
It’s a fantastic start to our financial year and is a testament to the ongoing confidence that clients have in Adaston to deliver technically complex passive fire-protection projects in occupied, high-profile buildings.
Winning this contract demonstrates both our commercial competitiveness and our ability to deliver the quality, compliance and safety standards expected on prestigious city-centre schemes.
As we continue to grow nationally, repeat business remains a key part of our success. Clients are returning to Adaston because they trust our integrity, our technical capability and our commitment to getting it right the first time.
The contract forms part of a strong start to Adaston’s FY27 pipeline, with the business already securing or reaching imminent award status on more than 70% of its target revenue for the year.
The award also builds on Adaston’s continued momentum following its recently announced five-year growth strategy, which includes significant investment in senior recruitment and operational expansion to support a growing national portfolio.
The project is the latest in a series of strategic contract wins for Adaston across commercial, public sector and higher education estates, reinforcing its trusted reputation for delivering compliant fire safety solutions on complex, live sites across the UK.
