Covid19 Gave Birth to a New Company

Pro-tect are a Hertfordshire based start up that is revolutionising the way covered walkwayss are constructed. By negating the need for ground works, foundations or floor fixings they can install their covered walkways in just a few hours. This is something that has proven incredibly popular within the healthcare industry as it minimises the disruption caused to the day-to-day running of hospitals, doctors practices and surgery's.

For over 20 years brothers Toby and Daniel lead the way in the exhibitions and events world managing a multimillion pound company that designed and delivered projects for many of the FTSE 250. Then along came Covid-19 and the world as they knew it was turned upside down. Both brothers are driven and creative and it wasn’t long before a new business idea came along - Pro-Tect Structures.

The covered walkways were born out of the Covid crisis; with queues forming outside hospitals and other healthcare facilities, patients were getting soaked whilst waiting for their appointments and prescriptions but there wasn’t a structurally certified product on the market, some health centres even began using unsafe pop-up marquees!

Using the brothers knowledge of construction, project management skills and extremely high levels of customer service, Pro-Tect is fast turning into one of the leading suppliers of semi-permanent covered walkways, canopy's and weather shelters.

They have already supplied structures from Somerset to Dunfermline; to clients including the NHS, HMPPS, Medivet and Ramsay Health.
