Breathe Safety Group is latest to land at Aviation Business Park in Bournemouth
Bournemouth Airport’s Aviation Business Park continues to spread its wings, with Breathe Safety Group becoming the latest business to call the site home.
The firm, which specialises in confined space breathing apparatus and life support systems, training and equipment for hazardous environments, has taken a refurbished 21,000 sq ft warehouse with ground floor offices, adjacent storage yard and 25 car parking spaces on the eastern side of the 200-acre estate.

The company was previously operating from premises in Ferndown and Verwood.
Director Nick Aris, who founded the firm in 2021, said: "We’d outgrown our former premises and were operating from two sites, so when this unit became available on the Aviation Business Park it was the perfect solution.
"We have an ambitious growth plan which includes more manufacturing, service support and skilled labour provision so the combination of an outside yard, covered warehouse space and offices was very important to us. Our new home has all of that, in a great location."
Mike Murray, commercial real estate director for Rigby Real Estate, which owns and manages the park, said he was delighted to welcome Nick and his team.
"They join more than 200 national and international businesses with some 4,000 employees across the mixed-use estate and we continue to see strong interest from a range of potential new occupiers," he said.
Rigby Real Estate is part of Rigby Group, which also owns and operates neighbouring Bournemouth Airport.
It is also currently developing a new industrial warehouse unit on the Aviation Business Park called ABP39 - part of an ongoing expansion, which could deliver over 1m square feet of development, support 2,600 new jobs and generate additional £100m annually for the Dorset economy.
APB39 will offer 39,000 sq ft of space with two storey offices, four loading access doors and 40 car parking spaces.
It will be available later this year through joint agents Goadsby and CBRE.
