Pellenc Fixion 2 lighting up Christmas spirit: In the heart of picturesque Bakewell, the town’s Christmas Tree Team has found a revolutionary ally in the Pellenc Fixion 2 Tying Machine.

Bakewell, nestled in the Derbyshire Dales, is renowned for its festive charm. Each year the Bakewell Christmas Tree Team, led by Robert Boyle, adds a touch of magic to the town, creating an enchanting atmosphere for locals and visitors alike.

“Each year we erect between 80 and 120 5ft Christmas trees, including one 25ft tree,” said Robert. “We cable tie Christmas lights onto every tree, and they need to survive all kinds of harsh weather. It is an arduous job and I have always been looking at ways to make that more efficient and try to be a little bit more environmentally friendly.”

After much research, Robert identified that the Pellenc Fixion 2 was the tool which could make a difference.

Lightweight and easy to handle, the new generation Fixion 2 vine tying machine boosts productivity. Time savings compared to hand tying mean that the investment pays for itself very quickly. Its record weight of 800g, including the battery, offers great freedom to move around while you work. Its ergonomic handle and battery life lets the operator hold the tool securely in their hand throughout a full working day.

Putting up over 100 Christmas trees in Bakewell’s world-renowned town is no small feat, and Robert shared how the Fixion 2 has transformed their Christmas tree decorating tradition: “It has saved us about 40% of the time we would normally spend putting the lights on the trees.

Also, we can wear gloves now – whereas before we couldn’t put cable ties on with gloves because they were just too fiddly. This has massively improved operator comfort.”

Furthermore, Robert highlighted the environmental benefits of using the Fixion 2; “It has allowed us to be more confident in the ways that we recycle the trees after use.”

By replacing traditional cable ties with the Fixion 2, the team has eliminated the use of over 5,000 individual plastic bits, contributing to a more sustainable and eco-friendly Christmas tradition.

The biodegradable nature of Fixion 2 ensures no plastic residue is left on the trees, offering peace of mind when recycling.

“Instead of going in shredders and being taken straight to composting they now go to a local animal sanctuary where they are used for alpacas and goats,” added Robert.

The Pellenc Fixion 2 Tying Machine has not only saved time for the Bakewell Christmas Tree Team but has also elevated their commitment to environmental sustainability. As Bakewell continues to shine with Christmas spirit, the Fixion 2 stands tall as an indispensable tool ensuring the tradition sparkles with efficiency and eco-conscious brilliance.

Bernhard and Company announces distribution partnership: Bernhard and Company, an industry leader in fine turf management solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with Maya Global, further embracing a data-driven approach within the sports turf industry and setting a new benchmark for industry excellence.

Maya Global offers software solutions that allow an analytical approach to sustainable land management, encompassing golf courses, vineyards, football pitches, and cricket grounds.

The partnership between Bernhard and Company and Maya Global will unite the expertise of two industry innovators, ensuring the distribution of Maya Global solutions throughout England and Wales, so that pitch and land managers can perform their maintenance processes more efficiently.

“Partnering with Maya Global allows us to make further strides in our digital innovations, in addition to the Soil Scout product that we already distribute within the UK,” said Angelique Crosnier, Commercial Director at Bernhard and Company.

“As an example, calculating resource allocation will become automated, so combined with our Soil Scout sensors, customers will be able to use water more efficiently and reduce maintenance costs further. Making decisions is much easier when utilising instant insights that are fully backed by reliable data.”

“Maya was founded through a passion for nature, managing water resource and reconciling sustainable ambitions”, added Valentine Godin, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Maya Global. “Technology can be used to advance the autonomy of greenkeeping, saving time and other valuable resources. To partner with an industry leader like Bernhard to help distribute our products fills us with confidence that our ethos and software solution can be used worldwide to further enhance turf management.”

Maya Global echoes Bernhard’s commitment to environmental sustainability and minimising wasted resources. Through their combined efforts, Bernhard and Maya Global will provide sustainable solutions such as an intelligent task management schedule, allowing turf professionals to optimise their maintenance regime and adopt informed agronomy practices.

Together, Bernhard Company and Maya Global are paving the way for a future where data-driven insights and advanced technology work hand-in-hand to transform the sports turf industry.
