Milwaukee Tool to increase OPE market share

March 15, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Admin

Milwaukee Tool to increase OPE market share: Milwaukee Tool seeks to increase its market share in the outdoor power equipment (OPE) sector in 2024 to offer more battery-powered solutions for gardening, landscaping and horticulture professionals.

As an industry-leading manufacturer of heavy-duty power tools, accessories and hand tools for professional users worldwide, Milwaukee Tool is now set to heighten its position in the market with both new and updated releases of its cordless solutions, placing an increased focus on its battery technology and range of outdoor power equipment.

Milwaukee Tool to increase OPE market share

Since the launch of its cordless OPE range, Milwaukee Toolhas played an important role in offering a battery alternative to solutions for professionals across the industry. Since then, Milwaukee Tool’s in-house research and development team has been working with industry professionals across a variety of trades to gain a better understanding of their daily challenges and has consistently put their findings back into the development of its products to ensure its customers have access to the solutions they truly need.

Rhys Adams, national sales manager OPE at Milwaukee Tool UK, commented: “Our mission in 2024 is to ensure our expansive range for cordless equipment proves its value to professionals in the OPE sector by providing a one-stop-shop for the solutions they need.

“To help increase our share of the OPE market, we’re bringing a variety of new products, as well as enhancements to our existing product ranges, to help ensure users have the right solutions to complete the task at hand with ease and efficiency when compared to more traditional alternatives – something that has always been at the top of our agenda.”

Among the tools hitting the market this year is the DUAL BATTERY SELF PROPELLED LAWN MOWER which features a 46 cm steel deck and blade design, and utilises Milwaukee Tool’s M18 FUEL battery technology to deliver best-in-class quality of cut.

Milwaukee Tool’s M18 FUEL battery technology has been engineered for the most demanding trades in the world to deliver unrivalled performance in a compact structure. Capable of powering a whole range of tools without wavering on power and performance, professionals can fuel an arsenal of outdoor power equipment using a single battery platform.

Rhys continued: “Our battery platform has been tried and tested in some of the world’s harshest and most demanding environments to ensure that no matter how challenging the job might be, or how difficult the terrain, our solutions are up to the task. The same technology, battery platform and power is put into our OPE range to support more and more professionals in the sector, and we’re excited to be able to provide the industry with even more solutions which we’ll be announcing very soon and throughout the remainder of the year.”

Also utilising the M18 FUEL battery platform is Milwaukee Tool’s first DUAL BATTERY BACKPACK BLOWER featuring a high contrast consistent blowing force of 20.5 N across the entire battery discharge. The advanced blower will be available later this year and can hold up to four M18 FUEL batteries for extended run time, as well as a padded back pad and padded adjustable straps for extreme comfort. The blower is one of the many products in the complete OPE range from Milwaukee Tool designed with the end user in mind.

Launched in 2017, Milwaukee Tool’s range of outdoor power equipment has grown to feature over 60+ tools and solutions to help provide the right solutions for outdoor maintenance, gardening, landscaping and land clearance professionals. The range features a selection of lawn mowers, brushcutters, hedge trimmers, blowers, chainsaws and sprayers, as well as an all-in-one multi-tool with 12 optional attachments powered by one single M18 FUEL Power Head.

Aphrodite Hills upgrades Club Car fleet

March 15, 2024/in News, Press Release/by Sarah Gwynn

Aphrodite Hills upgrades Club Car fleet: Aphrodite Hills Resort has received 72 new Club Car golf vehicles, replacing a fleet that has clocked up around 1.8 million kilometres since 2010.

The 5-star Cyprus venue estimates a ten-fold return on investment for the Club Car Precedents bought 14 years ago, with each of the 72 cars having between 25,000 – 30,000km on the clock.

Andrew Darker, Aphrodite Hills’ Director of Golf, explained: “Lots of venues lease their buggies but we decided to purchase ours all those years ago and it has proved a very shrewd move.

“The cars have delivered exceptional longevity. We are buggy-mandatory here as it’s a very hilly course on tough terrain. We’ve always had our own mechanic on site who does all the servicing and preventative maintenance, and it has been an excellent investment.”

Aphrodite Hills Resort is a PGA Partner venue and the first and only golf, leisure and real estate development in Cyprus. It is built on two plateaux, separated by a dramatic ravine with stunning views over the Mediterranean.

A staggering 130-metre gorge separates the signature seventh hole, meaning the golf cars have to navigate an exceptionally steep descent before climbing back up the other side to the green.

After driving the equivalent of 45 times around the globe, the old fleet has been replaced by Club Car’s state-of-the-art Lithium-Ion Tempo model complete with Visage GPS technology.

“The new fleet is enhancing the experience for our golfers,” continued Darker. “As a big resort the geo-fencing function is a great asset to have, and the lithium batteries are making a huge difference with shorter charging time, lasting longer and being more powerful, which is a big plus on our terrain.

“It was a no-brainer to buy rather than lease the new vehicles again and to stick with Club Car because we know how reliable and durable they are.”

Tony Swinnerton, Club Car’s EMEA Sales Director, said: “To have a fleet drive 1.8 million cumulative kilometres is phenomenal and just demonstrates the quality of our vehicles.”

Club Car’s highly-acclaimed Tempo model comes with 3.3hp motor and 375 Amp controller as standard to deliver outstanding hill-climbing power and acceleration. It also has many customisable options including colour, seats, storage, wheels and three programmable drive modes to maximise performance.

The Lithium-Ion-powered model is more efficient than standard batteries, with shorter charging time, longer lifespan and zero maintenance. It is also lighter, resulting in less impact on turf.
