Redexim return to BTME

Redexim return to BTME: Efficiency is the buzzword at BTME 2025 for Redexim, who return with a range of equipment for fast and effective aeration, seeding and spring renovation on stand 532.

With ever-higher course condition expectations from players leading to increasingly stretched greenkeepers, Redexim aim to showcase the versatile, quality-built solutions for achieving top-quality fine turf surfaces.

Redexim return to BTME

Redexim return to BTME

It wouldn’t be a Redexim show stand without the Verti-Drain® taking centre stage. BTME 2025 will be no different with the industry’s flagship high-speed aerator, the Verti-Drain® 2519, making a popular return. The Verti-Drain® 2519 encompasses the best in Redexim precision engineering, featuring an easy to adjust heave lever and slip clutch PTO drive – offering an impressive PTO speed of up to 540rpm which allows it to cover up to 8739sq.m per hour. Its unbeatable productivity is matched by outstanding durability and a full range of tine options to suit tasks around the maintenance calendar.

Another stand highlight promises to be the Redexim Carrier, a multi-tool tractor which will be equipped with the 1513 Verti-Drain® for aeration with minimal ground pressure. A popular choice for greens and other areas where excess weight is to be avoided, the Carrier can also act as a power unit for a range of other implements that utilise a 3-point linkage and PTO.

Full flexibility is also offered by the Redexim Overseeder range, whether your preference is low-disruption seeding on greens and tees or the dependability of precision disc-seeding on the fairways. The Redexim Overseeder 3D is available with either a 1.2m or 1.5m working width to suit all applications and conditions – with a dedicated lightweight version (LV) ideally suited to sensitive turf areas and/or tractors with a lower lifting capacity. Whichever size disc seeder you opt for, you can be assured of a precise seed delivery system and optimal conditions for germination, saving you time and money.

Many will be looking to combine aeration and overseeding work come the spring, as thoughts turn to new season renovations. Complimentary operations such as scarifying and topdressing can also be catered for by the Redexim portfolio, with the team on hand and happy to discuss full details of the options available in Harrogate, over the course of the 21st, 22nd and 23rd of January.
