A-SAFE, a leader in workplace safety solutions, has completed a significant installation at Leeds Bradford Airport’s new terminal extension and baggage area. This project enhances safety across critical operational zones and continues A-SAFE’s collaborations with major international airports like London Heathrow and New York JFK. Developed alongside Farrans Construction and Millar Design & Management, the systems were tailored to meet the airport’s specific safety requirements.

The UK Civil Aviation Authority noted a 7% rise in passenger numbers in 2024, exceeding 292 million. This increase has compelled airports to uphold high performance levels while ensuring safety. James Smith, co-CEO of A-SAFE, emphasized the significance of safety solutions that protect assets and sustain operational flow. “Leeds Bradford is the latest example of how Atlas systems help airports operate at scale with confidence,” he stated.

Gemma Whitehead, Head of Health, Safety, Environment & Compliance at Leeds Bradford Airport, reiterated the airport’s dedication to safety, underscoring cooperation with A-SAFE and other partners to enhance the protection of passengers and staff. Key features of the installation included A-SAFE’s Atlas for infrastructure and baggage systems, Atlas Plus for passenger segregation, and high-impact bollards for baggage door protection.

Ray Barnett, Sales Director at A-SAFE UK, commented on the unique safety demands at airports and the company’s capability to address these challenges. This project completion highlights the necessity of robust safety infrastructure to support the expanding complexities of airport operations.
