Sunbelt Rentals UK & Ireland has acquired the JLL Group, including JL Lighting Limited, JL Live Limited and Digiset Limited.
Founded in 2009, the JLL Group is a UK-based production and equipment rental company providing technical production services across sectors including live events, film and TV productions, corporate events and conference. Its range of equipment supports large-scale public events, covering aspects including staging, sound and LED video screens.
Sunbelt said the acquisition of JLL Group will enable it to offer more innovative products and solutions in technical production to address the evolving and broader demands of customers.
JLL’s team of technical production specialists will join Sunbelt Rentals’ Film and TV division, at the company’s new facility in Wembley.
Sunbelt Rentals CEO Phil Parker said the acquisition represents an exciting opportunity to expand the company’s offering: “This means that the industries we operate in will have the convenience and trust that they can depend on a single supplier for all their needs, streamlining their experience and ensuring they receive the highest levels of customer service.”
JLL Group MD Jack Linaker added, “Joining Sunbelt Rentals will allow us to expand our product offering and broaden our scope of solutions we can provide to our customers and the industries we operate in. I’m extremely excited about what the future holds for our team and our customers as we start this new journey.”
