Only five reasons needed to visit BTME

/in , /by

Only five reasons needed to visit BTME: It will be a record-breaking year for Reesink Turfcare as five new equipment launches from Toro happen at BTME 2024, which seems fitting coinciding with a now 40-year strong partnership, too.

Never has there been so much come at once from Toro, the leading worldwide provider of turf maintenance equipment, and BTME couldn’t be better placed to showcase it all to the industry.

Under wraps until showtime, Reesink will be announcing another mower that removes fuel from the equation and offers the solution to English Premier League guidance for noise generation. For a first glimpse of this brand-new innovation visitors should make their way to stand 622.

Two trusted vehicles for the fine turf market have had an electric makeover. Now Toro’s patent-pending lithium-ion HyperCell batteries power the Workman MDX Lithium. With the same strength and durability that’s always been relied on, this utility vehicle is now essentially maintenance-free.

There’s good news for owners of the popular Toro ProCore 648 or 648s aerator, there’s now an easy transport option. The TransPro 648 is just what’s needed for transporting these aerators around the course. No more long walks between holes this neat trailer has a unique design allowing for quick loading and unloading and easy securing and release of the aerator.

There’s new technology in the form of Toro’s Geolink precision spray system as spraying efficiency and precision coverage of the Toro Multi Pro sprayer reaches new heights thanks to the addition of autonomous functionality. Years in the making as Toro finetuned the technology to deliver the ultimate spraying solution and, according to Reesink, it’s worth the wait.

Completing the line up with a new entry point to market, customers can even add passenger vehicles to their fleet with the arrival of Toro Vista. Now there’s the option for members and guests to experience the smooth ride of a Toro. Available for four, six and eight passengers, this is a quality transport solution.

Jon Cole, turfcare divisional business manager at Reesink, says: “It’s unprecedented the new technology and electric updates we have coming from Toro this year, I’d go far as to say it makes the Reesink stand at BTME unmissable for those interested in new turfcare technologies. It’s a wonderful way to mark 40 years of a successful working partnership.”Also, on stand 622 in hall 6 will be the effective Bio-Circle GT Maxi, to keep parts and machines clean the environmentally friendly way – with no chemicals. From Reesink Hydro-Scapes there will be a selection of irrigation and water aeration solutions from Toro Irrigation, Perrot and Otterbine.

Nearby on stand 636 will be the latest sustainable technology from Reesink e-Vehicles. Award-winning brand STAR EV will show two of its most popular electric Capella Work Machines and the electric, lightweight, optional self-balancing, wide-wheeled scooter from KAASPEED.

Whether you’re heading to the exhibition for the newest golf course machinery or equipment for sports turf maintenance, sustainable technology solutions or advice, Reesink has it all on stands 622 and 636.

At BTME 2024, you will also have the chance to discuss any requirements with the UK and Ireland distributor ProSport UK Ltd, Ian Robson.

Foley Company is the leading manufacturer of professional grinders delivering quality, state-of-the-art spin, and relief grinders across the world. UK distributor ProSport UK continues to supply Foley professional grinders to the top golf courses in the UK impressing greenkeepers with the speed and versatility of the Foley range.

Many clubs across the whole spectrum, such as St Andrews, Carnoustie, the Buckinghamshire, Kingsbarns, Dumbarnie Links, and The Grove, to name but a few, have embraced the Foley method to achieve and retain the sharpest blades, longer.  The recent Open at Royal Liverpool was supported by Foley Company throughout the week pre-ceding the competition, to ensure the best surfaces were delivered right up to and throughout the Tournament.

And dealer outlets too, when looking to deliver an excellent reliable service to their customers, have chosen to go with Foley. The choice of spin or relief is no longer the question. Foley machines will do both and some models, such as the ACCU-Sharp, ACCU-Pro and ACCU-Master, have automatic grinding pre-sets and adjustment systems to decrease time and labour.

Ask the question; how do I get the most out of my workshop resources? Then choose the most effective method to sharpen your cutting units.

Using the advancements in technology to streamline grinding has been a significant positive with all the latest Foley grinders, so when it comes to grinding, the best got even better.
