With nearly eight decades of heritage, Barton Marine has been consistently manufacturing and delivering high-quality sailing blocks, track and cars from its production site in Southeast England.
The company was established in 1948 in Whitstable, UK, a location well-known for its rich shipbuilding legacy. The founder, Ron Barton, was a pioneer in the utilization of a fabric-based laminated plastic known as Tufnol and stainless steel to create yachting blocks for leisure marine purposes. These were significantly lighter and more robust than their predecessors.
Being a company characterized by numerous firsts and adopting innovative manufacturing procedures, Barton Marine has established itself as a global frontrunner in the domain of modern, well-engineered sailing hardware and accessories.
One of the most comforting attributes of Barton Marine's offerings is the assurance they provide. With the purchase of Barton Marine equipment, customers are not merely acquiring a hardware piece, but rather making an investment in a company with a rich tradition, which has consistently prioritized innovation and quality.
