SISIS Brings Dependable Turf Care Solutions and Expert Advice to SALTEX

SISIS Brings Dependable Turf Care Solutions and Expert Advice to SALTEX

Throughout the season, grounds staff and greenkeepers have faced difficult decisions about when and how to carry out essential maintenance. At SALTEX, the experienced SISIS team will be available to discuss those challenges and provide practical guidance on selecting the right operation, using machinery effectively and achieving the best possible results from changing ground conditions.

The SISIS range provides solutions across every stage of turf preparation and maintenance, from scarification, aeration and overseeding to brushing, top dressing and surface preparation. Tractor-mounted and pedestrian machinery, together with specialist hand tools, gives grounds teams the flexibility to build maintenance programmes around the needs of individual surfaces rather than a single approach.

Darren McMahon, Head of Marketing at Howardson Group, said: “This year has reinforced just how important healthy, resilient turf is. The weather may be beyond our control, but the decisions grounds teams make about when and how they maintain their surfaces aren’t. Every venue is different, and our team will be at SALTEX to discuss those challenges and share practical experience that helps customers get the best possible results from their equipment.”

Built in Britain, SISIS machinery has earned a reputation for exceptional durability, dependable performance and long service life, with many machines remaining in regular use decades after they were first purchased. This combination of performance, serviceability and longevity continues to underpin the SISIS approach.

SISIS’ expertise also extends separately to synthetic sports surfaces through its hybrid and synthetic turf range, with specialist machinery and practical advice available to help maintain surface performance, cleanliness and longevity.

Megan Oliver, Managing Director of Howardson Group, said: “SALTEX has always been one of the most important events in the grounds management calendar for Howardson Group. It gives us the opportunity to showcase the continued development of Dennis, SISIS and Hunter Grinders, meet customers from across the industry and better understand the challenges they face. Those conversations are invaluable; they help ensure we continue to develop equipment that delivers the quality, reliability and performance grounds professionals depend on.”

The weather may be unpredictable. Dependable equipment and experienced advice shouldn’t be.

It’s about bringing the industry together to share ideas, build relationships and discover solutions that drive the sector forward. The breadth of innovations and new launches already confirmed for 2026 demonstrates manufacturers’ confidence in SALTEX as the place to engage with key decision-makers and grounds professionals.”

As SALTEX marks its 80th edition, Dennis will combine more than a century of British manufacturing and engineering expertise with its latest developments in battery-powered professional mowing; led by the new ES-34SL lightweight finishing mower.

Part of the Howardson Group, Dennis has built a global reputation for reliable, high-quality professional turfcare machinery, supporting grounds teams from grassroots facilities through to some of the world’s leading sporting venues.

A major focus at SALTEX will be the Dennis E-Series. Developed by building on the success of established Dennis petrol machines, the battery-powered range retains the cut quality, reliability and familiar operating characteristics grounds professionals expect, while adding significant operational benefits.

These include up to 80% lower running costs compared with petrol, lower maintenance and servicing requirements, low noise and vibration, and zero exhaust emissions at the point of use. Long battery run times and rapid charging also help grounds teams confidently incorporate electric machinery into demanding maintenance programmes.

Taking centre stage will be the ES-34SL, Dennis’ latest lightweight battery-powered finishing mower. Developed in response to feedback from turf professionals, it combines greater agility with the precision required for outstanding stadium presentation.

Features include an intermediate grooming brush to stand the grass up ahead of cutting, click height-of-cut adjustment in precise 0.1mm increments from 9–35mm and straightforward bottom blade-to-cylinder adjustment. The ES-34SL can cut up to four pitches on a single charge and fully recharge in approximately two hours.

SALTEX will also give visitors the opportunity to speak directly with the Dennis team about the transition to battery-powered mowing and selecting machinery to suit their individual maintenance requirements.

Visit Dennis Mowers at SALTEX 2026, NEC Birmingham, 11–12 November.
