Fleet Launch Eco Friendly Marker

May 21, 2019/in Machinery, News, Press Release/by Vicky Panniers

Fleet Launch Eco Friendly Marker: Fleet Line Markers Ltd recently unveiled its latest development – the COG Aline Marker – at the Innovations event held at Malvern RFC.

The event attracted a large array of guests from line marking industry leaders to the smaller clubs, all eager to assess the benefits and capabilities of Fleet’s latest revolutionary Eco Friendly Marker.

The COG Aline Marker is the next step in line marking. It has been designed to be environmentally friendly and also eliminate paint wastage. The COG Aline Marking System’s bespoke drums can be used repeatedly, saving money and helping the environment by preventing waste. When the COG drums do eventually reach the end of their re-usable life, Fleet will recycle the COG drums.

Their unique shape and design also means that, during shipping, the COG drums are completely stable – with no more than one strap to hold them, this eliminates single use wrapping and/or plastic pallet covers. In addition to the huge saving on all one-way plastic substituted by the reusable COG drums, Fleet will eliminate 40 to 50 tonnes of packaging per year.

Once fitted on the COG Aline Machine, a single COG drum is enough to mark up to six soccer pitches. When the COG drums are empty, Fleet will arrange collection, at no further charge, and the re-using cycle begins again.

As well as being environmentally friendly, the COG Line Marking System is an extremely clean and convenient system to use. The COG drum is attached to the COG Aline with ease, making spillages a thing of the past.

Fleet’s Managing Director, Iain McGuffie, comments:

“Here at Fleet we strive to reduce our carbon footprint, the COG System eliminates single use plastics – and each single use plastic drum can contribute up to 6kg of carbon dioxide per drum.”

“In keeping with Fleet’s commitment to the environment our target is to eliminate more than 5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide over the next five years … Not all investments are financially driven.”

The Innovations event was hosted by Iain McGuffie, the Managing Director of Fleet, and International Sales Director, Iain Courage.

The hype at Fleet is not solely about the COG Aline Marker. The MAQA GNSS System continues to smash targets. An innovation in itself, which has transformed the traditional methods of line marking.

The MAQA Marking System enables the marking out of sports pitches to be carried out in a fraction of the time currently taken, when using string lines and 3, 4, 5, triangles. For example, marking a football pitch would usually take approximately

2.5hrs for two people, a total of 5hrs labour. The MAQA Marking System can reduce the time taken by 90% on this one task, marking a football pitch in just 20 minutes and only requiring one person.

The MAQA GNSS Marking System is supplied with Fleet’s unique Flozle Nozzle System, which is a spray head that automatically cleans the nozzle after every line marked. This System has been made even more appealing due to the interest free offers that are now available.

During the event guests enjoyed a day of line marking activities including the launch of the COG System. A factory tour and the opportunity to get hands on experience with all of our new, and classic markers, with the added benefit of expert guidance from the specialist team at Fleet, made the day a huge success. This included a chance to experience the BeamRider, which continues to hold it’s own across the world and remains highly regarded from grass roots to professional Stadia.

Blaney’s New Superhuman Helper

May 21, 2019/in Machinery, Press Release/by Gillian Bonnar

Blaney’s New Superhuman Helper: Blaney Motor are excited to launch a new mini loader – the BIONIC S1 035. The new Blaney BIONIC though small in size offers massive capabilities for many tasks involved in landscaping and greenkeeping.

This new superhuman helper can lift six times that of a man and 12 times what is recommended we should lift. This little machine is less than 1500mm long and can fit into a van for easy transportation with no need for a trailer licence. The Blaney BIONIC is affordable help, capable of more than we can imagine.

Following extensive customer consultation the BIONIC has been developed to be compact, mobile and manoeuvrable with the ability to do a variety of tasks. What makes this mini loader so handy is that you don’t have to climb into this machine or open doors. You can quickly and easily step on and step off, moving from job to job.

Blaney’s optional high flow oil drive for attachments gives endless applications. An advantage over a small tractor is that all implements are in front of you, with a small hitch for trailer work. With over 25 years’ experience in developing attachments, the BIONIC can be equipped with a range of attachments to carry out tasks including soil preparation and grass maintenance. Could you do with some extra help with: lifting, loading, shifting or mowing? Then put the Blaney BIONIC to work.

This versatile mini loader is ideal for working in tight and awkward areas thanks to its small size and zero turning circle. With a bucket capacity bigger than a wheelbarrow it is ideal for disposing of debris and grass cuttings and given its ability to reach over 2m it can tip into a trailer easily, making it better than any wheelbarrow.

The BIONIC is ideal for working in tight and awkward areas such as narrow paths or small gardens making it ideal for landscapers and tree surgeons. It can be fitted with a host of equipment for soil tillage and grass keeping duties such as a power box rake, a broadcaster for grass seed and fertiliser or a range of mowers for finishing and topping vegetation. The BIONIC can also be kitted out with a sprayer and boom making it a handy weed control device. A sweeper can make tidy ups quicker and easier. Equipped with forks it is ideal for unloading and moving pallets up to 350kg. Round the green, garden or field the BIONIC can be used to cut grass in hard to reach areas, lift stones and bore holes for strainers and fencing.

Blaney Motor Company, part of the Blaney Group of engineering companies based in Co Antrim, Northern Ireland is known for designing and manufacturing innovative off road vehicles including compact wheeled loaders. The New BIONIC is an exciting addition to their range and was showcased at this year’s Balmoral Show alongside Blaney Motor’s compact L1 loader range.

The team at Blaney will be pleased to speak to you about how a machine can be tailored to suit you. Blaney Motor are developing their dealer network and welcome trade enquiries.
