Eve Trakway
The Chesterfield-based company is Europe's leading supplier of temporary vehicle and pedestrian access equipment used in major rail, communication and utilities infrastructure projects and high-profile outdoor events.
Deal Information
In June 2008 LDC took a minority stake in the business.
The business supplies roadways, footpaths, bridges, crowd control barriers and ground protection systems which have been used on a diverse range of projects including Live 8, the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and the London Marathon.
It also developed the four metre-high, 7.5 km long Super Fortress Fence used at the Glastonbury festival since 2002 to curtail the practice of ‘fence jumping’ which was threatening the viability of the festival.
Founded 40 years ago, Eve Trakway was the subject of a management buy-out from support services firm Babcock plc in April 2006.
The business has offices in Chesterfield, Lanark and Wimbledon and operates a fleet of 30 large goods vehicles. It has strategic partnerships with firms in Germany, Ireland and France to provide access systems to European locations in short delivery times.
