Redexim Launches the RINK Sandstorm

Redexim is pleased to announce the launch of the Sandstorm. The Sandstorm is a self-powered topdresser that works without a tractor or hydraulic connection. Simply hitch it to a utility vehicle and spread. It has a 28 ft³ (800 L) capacity and can spread up to 39 ft (12 m), so you can cover more ground with fewer refills while staying light on turf. Ideal for greens and tees.

Sandstorm – No tractor or hydraulics needed

The Sandstorm is designed to make topdressing simple. With its own engine, it operates independently of a tractor or hydraulic system. Just hitch it to a utility vehicle and get to work.

UTV Ready

It is compatible with a wide range of vehicles, including the Toro Workman, John Deere ProGator and Cushman Truckster XT.

Jason Jones, Sales Manager North America:

“With many turf managers relying heavily on utility vehicles and not always having immediate access to tractors, the Sandstorm provides a practical and efficient solution that fits into their maintenance programmes.

“The launch of the Sandstorm Topdresser is particularly exciting for the North American market because it aligns with the day-to-day operational realities our customers face.”

It holds more. Spreads more

Compact yet powerful. Adjust spreading speed from your seat. Move material up to 39 ft (12 m). It gets material moving and jobs done right.

Steady material flow

The Sandstorm spreads with care. Its design keeps weight low while distributing material evenly, making it perfect for greens and tees where a fine touch is critical. Its ribbed belt and hopper shape help prevent build-up, so sand, moist and heavy materials move freely.

Control from your seat

The Vision X Pro digital display allows you to control belt speed, spinner speed, driving speed and gate opening from your seat. Save up to 20 profiles for repeatable results across different surfaces and changing conditions.

Powered by its own Engine

With its own Vanguard 14 HP engine, it is able to work without a tractor, PTO or hydraulics. Hitch it to a compatible utility vehicle and it is ready for fast, even topdressing on golf courses and sports pitches.

The Sandstorm

The Sandstorm has a maximum spreading width of 39 ft (12 m) and a maximum spreading thickness of 0.6 in (15 mm). Its hopper capacity is 28 ft³ (800 L). It weighs 1,687 lbs (765 kg) empty and has a maximum working speed of 16 mph (25 km/h). Features include a self-powered engine, compatibility with utility vehicles and a lightweight design suitable for spreading wide across large areas while being light enough to work on sensitive areas without adding undue pressure.

Lawn Mower Racing Returns to GroundsFest

June 23, 2026/in Events, News, Press Release/by Admin

Lawn Mower Racing Returns to GroundsFest

One of the most popular attractions at GroundsFest is set to return with lawn mower racing taking place across both days of the event.

Lawn Mower Racing Returns to GroundsFest

Sponsored by Kramp UK and organised by the West Midlands Lawn Mower Racing Association (WMLMRA), the action-packed competition will bring plenty of thrills, spills and entertainment to visitors throughout the show as competitors battle it out on a custom-built track in a bid to lift the second-ever GroundsFest Cup.

Adding an exciting new dimension to the racing this year will be the inclusion of the junior section of the West Midlands Lawn Mower Racing Association, giving younger racers the opportunity to showcase their skills in front of the GroundsFest audience.

The racing will take place at timed intervals throughout both days of the show, ensuring visitors have plenty of opportunities to witness the action while exploring everything else GroundsFest has to offer.

Lexi Gilders, Marketing Manager UK at Kramp UK, said:

“We’re delighted to be sponsoring the lawn mower racing at GroundsFest again this year. It’s a great feature that brings a real sense of fun to the event and reflects the friendly, community atmosphere that makes GroundsFest so unique.

“We’re looking forward to meeting visitors on our stand, which this year will be housed in our distinctive red shipping container and packed with products to explore. We’ll also be giving away free lawnmower air fresheners and trimmer line while stocks last, as well as offering some exclusive account sign-up deals. Whether you’re a sole trader, contractor or larger business, there’s a Kramp account for you so please come and say hi if you’d like to know more.”

Lawn mower racing proved to be one of the standout attractions at GroundsFest last year, drawing large crowds and creating a fantastic atmosphere. Its return further reinforces GroundsFest’s commitment to delivering a unique event experience that combines industry-leading exhibitors, live demonstrations, education and entertainment.

GroundsFest Marketing Director Chris Bennett said: “The lawn mower racing was a huge hit with visitors last year and created a real buzz around the showground. It’s one of those features that perfectly captures the spirit of GroundsFest – fun, engaging and bringing people together. We’re delighted to welcome the West Midlands Lawn Mower Racing Association back and grateful to Kramp UK for their continued support.”

With the return of the GroundsFest Cup and the addition of junior racing, visitors can expect even more excitement around the track this year.
