Safway acquires All-Safe

US based scaffold, suspended platforms and hoist rental company Safway Atlantic - part of Brand-Safway - has acquired the assets of Brooklyn, New York based hoist and scaffolding company All-Safe.

All-Safe provides turnkey hoist rental, scaffolding, shoring and bracing as well as jobsite protection solution. The company was established in 1996 by owners Dan O’Brien and Martin O’Donovan. While this is an asset purchase deal the aim is to keep disruption to a minimum with All-Safe customers continuing to work with their current contacts and locations. Having said this All-Safe’s operations will be merged into SafwayAtlantic’s organisation.

This is the first acquisition since Safway and Brand Energy & Infrastructure Services merged in June, following a deal agreed at the end of last year.

SafwayAtlantic president Keith Lynch said: “This acquisition will strengthen our presence in the New York/New Jersey area. All-Safe is a strong player in our market and is known for safely handling complex urban access challenges. All-Safe is a great fit for SafwayAtlantic.”

Dan O’Brien of All-Safe added: “We look forward to combining our assets and expertise with SafwayAtlantic, a leader in delivering comprehensive, world-class urban access solutions. This is an exciting opportunity for our business and employees to thrive and grow.”
