About us

Barlens was originally established in 1965 as Stewart Barlen Hire. The business was sold to Kennards (under Kennards Event Hire) in 2007 and reformed as Barlens in 2009. While we might have had a few names changes over the past 45 years, we’ve still maintained our commitment to quality hire equipment and our professional and friendly service.
