EGO showcases innovations at SALTEX: EGO Power+ is set to make a return to Birmingham’s NEC for SALTEX 2025, showcasing its latest portfolio of tools and technology for 2026.

Central to this year’s showcase is EGO’s AURA-R2 robotic mower range – the next generation of EGO’s robotics portfolio with the market’s latest available cutting-edge technology. Featuring PATH IQ Technology, the range combines advanced navigation systems, precision cutting technology, and user-friendly smart features to deliver industry leading performance, reliability and versatility in even the most complex of gardens.

EGO showcases innovations at SALTEX

Vince Brauns, Group Product Director for EGO, said: “The AURA-R2 range represents our commitment to pushing boundaries in autonomous technology and we’re excited for SALTEX visitors to be some of the very first people to see the range.”

Also at the show are major new additions to EGO’s PRO X range of tools for commercial and local authority users. Engineered to deliver even longer run times and maximum performance for power-demanding professional tools, SALTEX visitors will also be some of the first to see EGO’s first ever Tabless Cell battery – the 56V ARC Lithium MAX^TM, which is compatible with EGO’s existing range of tools

Another first for the PRO X range, EGO will introduce the single-sided hedge trimmer. Boasting a 75cm blade to tackle larger hedges in fewer passes, it will increase efficiency for professionals.

EGO will also exhibit its new LMX7600SP 76cm lawnmower which offers the widest cutting width in the PRO X line-up and includes dual battery ports for PeakPower^TM technology, for increased runtime.

“This year, we are proud to present products that redefine expectations in battery-powered tools. From our most powerful battery yet to our first robotic mower range without a boundary wire, we are setting the standard of what the future of battery power can achieve”, continues Vince.

Additionally for 2026, EGO is adding not one, but four new lawnmowers to its Power+ portfolio all of which have been upgraded with new features including an LED dashboard, improved power and grass collection performance. EGO is also expanding its lifestyle product line, with its first-ever 3-in-1 Compact Inflator, alongside smaller, portable versions of its pressure washer and wet/dry vacuum – perfect for users who want to use their EGO batteries beyond the garden.

On the stand, there is an opportunity to take part in an exciting competition to be in with a chance of winning an EGO lawnmower.

Visitors of the show at The NEC in Birmingham on the 12^th – 13^th of November can find EGO’s latest product offering on stand B120.

Cleaner fuel powers healthier operation

October 13, 2025/in News, Press Release/by Admin

Cleaner fuel powers healthier operation: The switch to Aspen Fuel has transformed operations for the Cowdray Estate forestry team– delivering significant health, safety and efficiency benefits to maintenance works across the 6,800 acres of managed woodland.

Cowdray’s decision to start using Aspen two years ago has brought tangible benefits to both daily working conditions and long-term equipment performance.

Cleaner fuel powers healthier operation

Assistant Forestry Manager Kris Gillespie has worked at Cowdray for the last seven years and is part of an 11-strong team looking after the maintenance of the conifers, broadleaf high forest and chestnut coppice that make up 36% of the total footprint of the estate. “Anyone who works with petrol-powered equipment will know that one of the major downsides is the fumes, and the implications this has for operator health and safety” Kris explains. “Even if you’re not actually using the tools, simply transporting cans from one place to another is enough to notice the smell.”

“As soon as we started using Aspen, this all changed. The fact that it’s odourless in operation not only brings real health benefits for the team, it is also really beneficial for the visitors who regularly use the 100 miles of footpaths that run through our woodlands.”

Aspen is an alkylate petrol, available for two and four stroke engines. Aspen 2 is pre-mixed with a fully synthetic, biodegradable oil removing the need to manual mixing and improving consistency and engine performance.

Kris continues, “Not only has Aspen presented us with a cleaner, safer alternative, it’s also brought us efficiency savings by having Aspen delivered to site by the pallet – eliminating trips to the petrol station.” The absence of ethanol and other hazardous hydrocarbons has also been a gamechanger. “With a range of tools of all shapes and sizes, it’s not unusual for some machines to sit unused for a year or two at a time. Because Aspen is ethanol-free it doesn’t degrade like traditional petrol which means we can take a saw that hasn’t been used for a while, start it up and get straight to work.” He adds, “Before, we’d be spending money on repairs to machines which had barely clocked up any hours, just because of rotten fuel lines. That hasn’t happened since we started using Aspen fuel.”

The Cowdray team has also adopted Aspen’s Fillpartner Combihandle, bringing further practicality and safety into practice. “With this, we can ensure no spills and quickly and easy swap out the Aspen can with a spare when required to get through a full day’s work with ease.”
