Engineering Expertise Since 1964

Founded in 1964, Barton Engineering & Export Limited has built a reputation for delivering precision engineered solutions to secure, technical and mission critical environments. With over five decades of experience, we combine traditional engineering craftsmanship with modern manufacturing capability to support clients across defence, government, commercial and research sectors.

Our longevity is built on one principle. Engineered reliability. Every project we undertake is designed, manufactured and delivered with performance, durability and compliance at its core.

Specialists in RF Screened Enclosures and Secure Installations

Barton Engineering is recognised for its expertise in RF screened rooms, EMC enclosures and specialist rack systems. Our latest platform, the Barton Modular Room (BMR), represents the next generation of high frequency shielding, delivering 100dB attenuation up to 40GHz.

From secure communications facilities to advanced testing environments, we design and manufacture shielding systems that meet the increasing demands of modern electromagnetic applications. Our work supports installations across the UK and internationally, including high security and technically sensitive projects.

In House Engineering and Manufacturing Capability

All design and fabrication is carried out in house at our Kent facility. Our capabilities include:

  • Precision sheet metal fabrication

  • CNC punching, milling and turning

  • MIG, TIG and specialist welding

  • Custom rack and enclosure manufacture

  • Modular RF panel systems

  • Prototype and small to medium batch production

Maintaining in house control ensures quality, consistency and flexibility throughout every stage of a project.

From Concept to Installation

We provide full project support from initial consultation and design development through to manufacturing, delivery and installation. Our experienced teams understand the complexities of working within secure and operational environments, ensuring installations are completed efficiently and to specification.

Whether supplying a single enclosure or delivering a complete screened facility, Barton Engineering provides practical, engineered solutions tailored to client requirements.

Built on Experience. Designed for the Future.

As technologies evolve and frequency requirements increase, so too does the need for robust electromagnetic control. Barton Engineering continues to invest in engineering development, ensuring our products remain capable of meeting future demands in secure communications, defence and advanced research environments.
