Run by Fred’s son, David Burton, Burtons has remained a company with family at its heart, keeping the core values of animal welfare & customer satisfaction a top priority, without being affected by year-on-year expansions.

Starting out as a small company in Maidstone, Burtons began as a broad supplier and servicing company to private NHS hospitals & veterinary practices. The constant connection to vets and customer requests made it clear that the veterinary market would soon become the main focus, and there began Burtons Manufacturing. Starting with autoclave spare parts & leading to production of stainless steel tables & anaesthesia machines that are still market leading products to this day.

Our extensive range of veterinary equipment and services now cover everything from anaesthesia to x-ray, with the help of more business acquisitions year on year.

'Think of an idea in the morning, get it designed by lunchtime, and have a working prototype before going home’

Approximately 50% of our products are still manufactured at Burtons HQ in Staplehurst. Which now boasts an extensive range of capabilities including; CAD design, CNC machining, laser cutting, fabrication, wood shop, paint shop, full assembly & testing.

Our sales and service teams, workshop technicians, office administration staff and managers are on hand to help you with any enquiries you may have and are dedicated to providing great quality service to all customers, no matter the requirements.

Although still focused on the veterinary sector, Burtons have diversified into allied areas such as vehicle conversions for canine transportation & animal ambulances, to grooming equipment and aquatic systems.
