Established by Richard Campey, the company’s foundation is built on offering practical, inventive solutions tailored to the real needs of turf professionals. This commitment to innovation remains at the core of Campey’s approach as it continues to design equipment that meets the evolving demands of modern sports surfaces.

Reflecting on the company’s journey, Richard commented, “When we launched in 1986, I started off in the northwest of England carrying out contracting work, over time customers started asking me if they could buy the machines.  The initial machine that I brought to market was the Greenline Coremaster, Colin Gregory sold 2 to me but I only wanted 1 and that’s how we started off in sales.

Four decades on, our drive for innovation and partnership with the industry is as strong as ever. The Open Day will be a fantastic occasion to share this milestone with everyone who has contributed along the way, and our way of saying thank you with the people who have helped make it possible.”

The 40th Anniversary Open Day will highlight both the company’s heritage and its continued commitment to developing machinery and practices that support the future of sports turf management.

Campey to launch Imants Recycling Dresser® 1.3 at SALTEX

Campey to launch Imants Recycling Dresser® 1.3 at SALTEX: Campey Turf Care Systems will unveil the new lightweight Imants RECYCLINGDRESSER® 1.3 on stand C050 at SALTEX 2025, alongside their range of industry-leading maintenance solutions and product specialists.

Designed specifically for use with smaller tractors, the latest Imants RECYCLINGDRESSER® 1.3 brings the proven benefits of recycling dressing to facilities that previously lacked the horsepower for larger models. By re-using and redistributing existing soil across the playing surface, the machine offers a cost-effective, sustainable approach to turf care that reduces both labour and material inputs.

Key updates include a new rear flap for faster material breakdown and drying, plus smart folding legs that double as protective side bars for easier transport and storage. The process aerates soil vertically and horizontally, eliminates compaction, boosts biological activity, and extends fertiliser effectiveness.

Visitors to the Campey stand C050 will have the chance to see the new Imants RECYCLINGDRESSER® 1.3 up close. With decades of combined knowledge across renovation, aeration, and sustainable practices, the Campey team will be on hand to offer tailored advice and guidance.

Other products worthy of a mention include the Foley Air2G2 pedestrian aerator which laterally injects air blasts to loosen up compacted soil immediately but without any disruption to the surface of the turf or the roots below. With frequent use, the Air2G2 336 creates surfaces that are healthy, firm, and ready for play immediately after treatment.

Next is the compact yet efficient Campey™ Seed Shot™.  Perfect for targeted seeding post-game, depositing a precise quantity of seed into the soil for optimal germination rates, and the equally useful Vredo Turf Buddy specially designed for overseeding areas where it is not possible to work with large machines and perfect for small repairs on sports fields and golf courses. The Vredo Turf Buddy uses the tried and tested double disc system which consistently delivers over 96% germination rates.

We will also be at the GMA Community Sports Zone, highlighting equipment including the New Holland Boomer 35 Tractor, Imants Mini RotoKnife, and Martin Lishman Nano Sprayer for Grassroots use.

SIS Pitches Approve Campey™ Universe® rotor

SIS Pitches Approve Campey™ Universe® rotor: The Campey™ Universe® rotor from Campey Turf Care Systems has become a featured and approved method of SIS Grass renovation by SIS Pitches, which is the world’s leading provider of stitched hybrid pitches.

SIS Grass has become the go-to option for clubs and federations worldwide in football and rugby, with every major tournament, from the World Cup and European Championship to the Champions League and Premier League, featuring the surface.

A significant part of SIS Grass’ success has come through innovation and testing. To get the best consistency and longevity from the system, SIS Pitches has constantly researched ways to keep it at its best, with the Campey Universe® Rotor fitted to the Koro FIELDTOP MAKER (FTM) playing a leading role.

Extensive time and research have gone into the finessing of the Campey™ Universe® rotor for use on hybrid systems, with it now being used worldwide by contractors and end-users to ensure the quality of their pitches.

Group Board Director at SIS Pitches, Ivo Lamot, has worked to develop the hybrid system into a world-leading product, and fully endorses the use of the Universe® rotor on the hybrid surfaces.

“SIS Grass is a world leading stitched hybrid system that is truly innovative, and the Campey™ Universe® rotor has kept pace with that innovation to become an integral part of getting the best from SIS Grass,” he explained.

“At SIS, we’re committed to providing a product that can be used for multiple seasons while always performing at its peak, and a big part of that is the maintenance. Renovations occur yearly, and by using the Campey™ Universe® rotor, all the organic material can be removed without damaging the fibres, leaving the perfect base. That is why we have officially approved the Campey™ Universe® rotor.”

It is an exceptional tool for maintaining and rejuvenating hybrid pitches, combining precision and efficiency to meet the unique demands of these innovative playing surfaces. SIS Grass, a blend of 95% natural grass and synthetic fibres, require specialised care to ensure optimal performance, durability, and player safety. As an attachment to the Koro® FTM®, the Campey Universe® Rotor offers the perfect solution for targeted surface management without damaging the synthetic components of hybrid systems.

This rotor is equipped with specially designed tungsten-tipped blades that are strategically spaced to remove organic matter, thatch, and surface debris with precision. When used on hybrid pitches, it effectively addresses the accumulation of organic material, which can compromise drainage and stability if left untreated. By operating at adjustable depths, the rotor can delicately remove unwanted material without disturbing the synthetic fibres or the underlying structure of the hybrid system.

One of the significant advantages of using the Campey™ Universe® rotor on hybrid pitches is its ability to preserve the natural grass while enhancing the interface between the natural and synthetic components. The process improves aeration and drainage, which encourages healthy grass growth by creating an ideal environment for root development.

Additionally, it facilitates a clean and even surface, preparing the pitch for essential follow-up treatments such as overseeding or topdressing. These procedures are critical for hybrid pitches, as they rely on consistent and sustainable natural grass cover to complement the synthetic elements.

Using the Campey™ Universe® rotor, groundsmen can maintain the integrity and performance of hybrid pitches, ensuring they meet the rigorous standards of professional sports. Its precision and adaptability make it an invaluable tool for extending the lifespan and playability of these high-tech surfaces.

Next up is the BM45 Scarifier with Hi-Tip Collection is a professional scarifier with fixed blade collection. Due to the blade fixing system, their replacement does not require the complete disassembly of the transmission and rotor, but only of the worn blades. The high-performance rotor guarantees excellent work in all conditions, even when the cutting edge of the blade is not in optimal condition. In addition, the collector with hydraulic discharge on the ground allows the material removed from the ground to be collected in a single pass. The high ventilation created by the rotor allows it to be used also as a leaf vacuum.

And last but not least is the latest Campey Seed Shot. This simple but very effective device is the perfect re-seeding tool for tackling very specific areas. The latest model is a smaller version to carry smaller seeds such as Bent grass particularly for use on fairways and golf greens. It is perfectly designed with 19 holes to accommodate smaller sized seed, injecting up to 4-5mm deep, in precise quantities and delivering optimal germination rates.

The team of Campey Turf Care Systems is looking forward to seeing you all at BTME 2025 in Harrogate!
