Suståne’s world-leading solutions at BTME

Suståne was founded over 35 years ago on the premise of utilising and refining renewable resources to add benefit to the land, without contributing to environmental issues which would require future generations to resolve. The Suståne composting and manufacturing process was developed to avoid production of greenhouse gasses like methane and nitrous oxide, creating products suited to a range of applications that offer a natural capacity to sequester and clean CO2 from our atmosphere.

The current range of fertilisers, soil builders and amenders encapsulate more than three decades of research from over 100 universities and facilities around the globe – resulting in products that turf managers across the sporting spectrum can rely on for maximum results with minimal impact on the environment.

For greenkeepers, grounds managers and agronomists, Suståne offer products that play an important role in rapid grow-in’s, establishment and renovations, along with solutions specifically developed to assist with maintenance recovery. Notable in this category is Suståne Turf Revival 6-2-4. Delivering a balanced Nitrogen release without excessive yield, together with organic-rich and biologically stable humus, humic acids, beneficial microorganisms, VA mycorrhizae and other organic nutrients, it helps plants to recover from renovation practices.

Another product of particular interest to course managers is Soil ReGen® Structural Soil Conditioner which regenerates and rebuilds disturbed or depleted soils, supplying essential nutrients, reducing compaction and increasing water and oxygen infiltration rates.

Formulations from the Suståne range have played a role in the renovations and ongoing sustainable management of golf courses in more than 60 countries around the world, and you can find out exactly by speaking to the technical team on stand 170 in January.

Ventrac - more than a mower

Ventrac – more than a mower

With the capability to work on 30-degree slopes combined with incredibly low ground pressure and over 30 attachments, it’s the most versatile equipment combination for the busy course manager. This is a machine that can mow in multiple formats, blow leaves, move snow, reinvigorate pathways, aerate, cut turf, dig trenches, grind stumps and prepare seedbeds … everything a golf course of any size, can utilise all-year round.

Allan Patterson, the Director of Golf Courses and Estates at Trump Turnberry says,

“Our Ventracs have alleviated a lot of issues associated with working on steep banks. It can climb 30-degree slopes safely and with ease, cutting the number of hours the team previously spent strimming and frees them up for other tasks. I like the fact that it’s a multi-tool, which means it can undertake several tasks and can be out on the courses or around the estate, virtually every day. It’s an extremely versatile piece of equipment.”

To understand why Allan and the rest of the industry have embraced the Ventrac product, come along and visit stand 122 in Hall 1.
