Background-

Harrogate-based passive fire protection specialist Adaston has completed major fire safety projects at a London university and a Yorkshire university, worth a combined £800,000. Both contracts mark the third year in a row that the firm has won work from these universities.

At the London university, Adaston delivered a £300,000 program of fire door and fire-stopping works across university buildings and student accommodation. It earned the reappointment through a competitive tender.

At the Yorkshire university, the company finished two fire-stopping projects worth a combined £500,000 across the university estate. Adaston secured the work through a competitive framework.

Paul Ward, Acting Managing Director of Adaston, said repeat business is the most pleasing part. He said a third straight appointment at both universities shows that clients trust the quality of the firm’s work and the relationships it has built.

Ward said higher education estates bring unique challenges. Many buildings stay occupied all year, and student accommodation projects run on tight schedules between academic terms. His teams plan around those pressures and deliver compliant fire safety solutions without disrupting daily operations.

The wins add to Adaston’s growth across commercial, public sector, and higher education estates. Repeat clients and framework appointments now play a bigger part in its expanding national portfolio, and Ward said they show the firm’s approach delivers value as well as compliance.
