Erith paves way for Anglo-Brazilian relationship.
In advance of his visit, Fabio called and asked if we could arrange a site visit so that he could see first-hand just how demolition is done in the UK. A quick call to David Darsey, managing director of world demolition contractor of the year Erith Group and we were all set.
So, after a very nice dinner with Fabio and IDE president John Woodward, DemolitionNews and Fabio headed for Victoria where Erith is undertaking a very tricky demolition project immediately behind the Victoria Palace Theatre where the musical Billy Elliot continues to play to packed houses eight times per week.
Erith’s Andy Lester gave us a great guided tour, and Fabio was clearly impressed by the Safety 24:7 approach on the site.
Fabio and David Darsey are now heading for Amsterdam where they’re both shortlisted in this Friday’s Demolition Awards, thankfully in separate categories.
