For nearly 80 years, Barton Marine has been making and dispatching
world-class sailing blocks, track and hardware from our factory in
Southeast England.
Starting in 1948, in Whitstable UK, famed for its shipwright heritage, our
founder, Ron Barton, was one of the first to use a fabric based laminated
plastic called Tufnol and stainless steel to manufacture leisure marine
yachting blocks which were much lighter and stronger than previously
constructed.
As a marine company of many firsts and moving into new and dynamic
manufacturing processes, Barton Marine has become a global leader in
high-quality, well-engineered modern sailing hardware and
accessories.
The most reassuring aspect of Barton Marine products are that they provide
peace of mind. When you buy Barton Marine equipment, you are
purchasing more than just a piece of hardware, you are investing in a
traditional company, which has always kept innovation and high-standards
in its sights.
