ADSF UK LTD has been awarded accreditation from various well known health and safety bodies including Safecontractor, Constructionline, Exor & CHAS for its commitment to achieving excellence in the health and safety field. Safecontractor, Constructionline, Exor & CHAS are leading third party accreditation schemes which recognise the highest standards in health and safety management amongst United Kingdom contractors. Here follows a brief description of what these safety organizations entails;

ADSA was formed back in 1985 for the purpose of ensuring that its member companies provide the highest levels of safety for pedestrian automatic doors. ADSA exists to promote the highest standards in automatic doors and to assist specifiers and customers obtain the very best automated solution for their requirements. ADSA first developed the industry code of practice. This code covers the safety aspects of automatic doors for pedestrian use. This subsequently formed the basis of BS 7036: 1988, a code of practice for provision and installation of safety devices for automatic power operated pedestrian door systems.

In 1997 a group of health and safety and procurement professionals from across Great Britain worked with the Association of London Government (ALG) to develop CHAS. In 2001 CHAS became a web-based system. CHAS began with two objectives, to improve health and safety standards across Great Britain whilst reducing duplicated safety applications for both suppliers and buyers. Nowadays however, there are more than 500 public and private sector buyer organisations which include councils, housing associations, NHS trusts and of course an ever increasing number of large private companies who in addition employ sub-contractors.

For suppliers to the construction industry, Constructionline means that the days of having to repeatedly fill in standard pre-qualification forms for every construction tender are long gone! What's more, with 8,000 buyers already using the Constructionline database to source contractors and consultants, Constructionline is a great tool to market your organisation. By providing an up-to-date register of pre-qualified suppliers for construction contracts, Constructionline is a common sense solution that 8,000 buyers from over 2,000 organisations are already making the most of.

Safecontractor was originally developed as a bespoke project for a Property Management client who wished to outsource the annual vetting of contractors on its approved list. However, due to the enormous interest shown by other similar clients identified the potential for a standardised system that could be offered to the whole of the company's client base. In 1999 SupplyLine was introduced. After further development the product was further expanded to provide web based access to its clients and was re-branded as Safecontractor in 2003.

Exor's services enable organisations to meet their compliance and procurement policies across a wide range of areas, including efficiency, economic development, regeneration and risk management. Since its launch Exor has become one of the leading independent providers of supply chain risk management solutions in the United Kingdom.
