AFI acquires Astra Training

UK rental group AFI has acquired the assets of Barnsley-based Astra Training after it entered into administration.

Operating as part of the AFI group, Astra Training will retain its name and continue to deliver IPAF, PASMA and Ladder Association courses along with safety training and construction skills courses.

In 2011 the company moved into larger premises in Darton which featured a mock four-bedroom house and 15 metre high steel-frame structure, both for demonstration and training purposes. The 4,650 square metre open plan facility also included an 18 metre high ceiling and a suite of classrooms - see: Big new pemises for Astra.

AFI now has 20 training centres across the UK, including open course venues at Wakefield, Birmingham, Liverpool and London. It also has a rental fleet of approximately 5,000 aerial work platforms.
