ADVERTISEMENT

 

One of the largest scaffolding companies in the southeast Benchmark Scaffolding Ltd which employes over 350 scaffolders was placed in administration but is back in business with the SAME name.

Benchmark Scaffolding Ltd work has been around some of London’s most famous buildings that include Selfridges in Oxford Street, Houses of Parliament and Allenbuilds’s roof refurbishment.

Benchmark Scaffolding Ltd was placed into administration but was recently purchased by a unknown company that is owned by investor RCapital, which then changed it’s name to BSL Realisations 2011 ltd that then ceased trading.

The purchasing company then changed its name to Benchmark Scaffolding Ltd which is who they are now.

The restructuring has helped save more than 350 jobs and ensured the continuation of building works at the Olympic site in Stratford

This move for Benchmark has now made the company considerably financially stronger and has once again the capacity to expand there customer base and business interests.
