Kenton Mann has led Leisurequip Ltd. for more than four decades, guiding the company from its early construction-rooted beginnings into one of the UK’s most respected names in bespoke wellness design and supply.

Kenton Mann - Managing Director of Leisurequip Ltd.

Kenton stepped into the role in 1985 at just 21 years old, following the sudden death of his father, Leisurequip founder Eddie Mann. With a background as a qualified construction manager, Kenton combined practical site experience with a fast-earned commercial instinct—building a business known for doing the job properly, and looking after people while doing it.

Under Kenton’s direction, Leisurequip became the UK’s established specialist for premium sauna and steam installations, evolving alongside the industry as the market shifted from prefabricated units to fully bespoke wellness spaces. Over the years, he has overseen the design and construction of an exceptionally broad range of projects that cover; saunas, steam rooms and full wellness rooms, later expanding into hammam spas, steam showers, mud rooms and salt rooms.

The client list spans high-expectation domestic projects and demanding commercial environments, including hotels, clubs, gyms and major institutions—most notably supporting the completion of the luxury Hammam spa at Harrods in London.

Widely regarded as the UK’s leading authority on Tylö sauna and steam systems, Kenton’s knowledge is grounded in decades of hands-on delivery, product importing, and long-standing Scandinavian partnerships. Today, Leisurequip continues to grow under his leadership, defined by uncompromising standards and a customer-first approach—because when experts need expert help, they call Leisurequip.

Today, Kenton leads the day-to-day direction of Leisurequip’s online shop making premium wellness equipment easier to specify, buy and install across the UK. Alongside bespoke projects, he oversees a carefully curated range of sauna, steam and spa products from leading brands including Tylö, Harvia, and Helo, plus specialist partners such as Affinity, VelusJet and Fabio Alemanno.

The result is a modern supply platform backed by the same hands-on expertise Kenton and Leisurequip are known for—helping homeowners, installers and commercial clients choose the right equipment with confidence.
