OUR STORY
Protex Rentals Limited was founded with a simple goal: to make site safety easier for civil contractors.
With many years of experience in the equipment hire industry, we’ve seen the challenges that come with setting up and maintaining safe, efficient worksites. We understand that every project is different, which is why we focus on providing not only quality equipment, but also practical advice, dependable service, and solutions our customers can trust.
As a family-owned business based in the South Island, we take pride in building lasting relationships and delivering a personal level of service. Whether it’s trench shields, road plates, or other site safety equipment, we’re committed to helping our customers get the job done safely, efficiently, and with confidence.
PROTEX HISTORY
Protex Rentals Limited was established in January 2026 by founder Kerry Wallace.
Following the sale of his previous business, Fulcrum Equipment, Kerry purchased the trench shield division and launched Protex Rentals from its base in Dunedin.
Since then, Protex has grown as a family-owned and operated business. Built on years of industry experience, Protex continues to provide reliable trench safety and site equipment solutions while remaining committed to exceptional service, strong relationships, and supporting the communities we work in.
