About Us

The Facilities by ADF Group is the leading provider of premium serviced production facilities along with location services and ground protection equipment to the UK film and high–end television (HETV) industry.

The Group serves customers in an industry that has experienced, notwithstanding the Strikes in 2023, significant growth in recent years, with additional demand driven by a material rise in the consumption of film and HETV content via streaming platforms such as Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV+ and Amazon Prime.
