New Origin launches at BTME

New Origin launches at BTME: Origin Amenity Solutions (OAS), a leader in premium turf care solutions, will launch two groundbreaking fertiliser ranges at BTME 2025: their revolutionary Xtend CRF (Controlled Release Fertiliser) range and their precision-focused Microlite range.

These launches result from OAS’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge innovations for turf professionals.

Visitors to BTME 2025 will be able to explore OAS’s products in Hall 2, Stand 230, and discover TurfKeeper, OAS’s innovative digital platform, at Stand 200.

Xtend CRF: Featuring innovative technology

The Xtend CRF range is the first fertiliser on the market to benefit from two key fertiliser technologies, which, when combined, provide a true controlled release of nutrients.

The Xtend CRF range will feature four products. All will contain Origin’s ProTect controlled release technology, which uses temperature-primed nutrient release blended with inhibited nitrogen to slow the release. When formulated with freely available nitrogen, this combination provides a quick turf response followed by a consistent release of nutrients over three months.

Microlite: Precision Fertiliser for Optimal Performance

Launching alongside Xtend CRF is Microlite, a premium micro-granular fertiliser range containing multiple nitrogen sources for a consistent release of nutrients without any significant growth flushes. Micro-granule for maximum performance, Microlite can be applied at low application rates with superior coverage over other products in the market. The granules disperse quickly into the sward and break down rapidly to become available for plant uptake. The inclusion of methylene urea in some grades improves the longevity and slower availability of nitrogen.

TurfKeeper – A Digital Solution for Turf Management

OAS will also feature the TurfKeeper digital platform at stand 200, showcasing its capabilities to improve operational efficiency in turf management. TurfKeeper helps turf professionals manage tasks such as job scheduling, resource management, and performance tracking, providing valuable insights for optimised surface performance.

New branch manager for Reesink Scotland

New branch manager for Reesink Scotland: Mike Turnbull brings six years’ experience as Regional Manager looking after UK Reesink dealers, customers and retail partners, bolstered by more than 20 years working at Toro Spellbrook, to his new role of Branch Manager at Reesink Scotland, the distributor’s service branch based in Livingstone.

Supporting all of Scotland in distribution and service, Reesink believes Mike will bring huge benefit to this extensive geographical area for the business, thanks to his extensive expertise.

Scotland, being the home of golf, is the location of the country’s, and indeed world’s, most prestigious golf clubs, many of which are long-term Toro commercial machinery and irrigation customers, including major sporting venues, councils, local authorities and landscapers who favour the comprehensive grounds machinery range from Toro.

“We have many of the business’s key customers in Scotland and a team of staff at the top of their game, and it will be an honour to lead the branch forward in our plans to grow existing and build new customer relationships in the golf and groundscare sectors,” Mike says.

“My focus will be to make sure all existing deals, service packages and backup and support requirements are catered for and plot a new course of growth for the branch.”

With growth in mind, one of the first jobs Mike will be responsible for is launching a satellite branch in the north of the country to service the area north of Aberdeen. He says: “Our branch in West Lothian is convenient for its central location and good transport links, but with the level of work and customers we have spread over such a large area that has grown since we opened eight years ago means it’s time for additional resource over a bigger area.

“We’re currently staffing this new facility and already have Jim McKay, Area Sales Manager North and Gordon Rodgers, a full-time mechanic/engineer in position. The fully supported hub will make it easier for customers in the north to access our maintenance and genuine parts after-sales services.”

For Mike, who is Scottish, this move marks a return home. “It was a hard decision to leave the role I was doing. I was working with some of the best dealers in the UK and the relationships we formed were really successful. I will miss that, but the timing was right. I  view it as the same job but with a different office and I am looking forward to bringing all I have learned over the years to Scotland to drive the branch forward and benefit our customers there.”

To speak to Reesink Scotland about what brands, services and expertise it can offer, call 01506 300880.

Two new INFINICUT® mowers at BTME

Two new INFINICUT® mowers at BTME: Twelve months on from the launch of the INFINICUT® 22” FL golf cutting unit at BTME 2024, the company is set to return to Harrogate in January 2025 with two new patent-pending additions to the range.

The new design of the INFINICUT® 22” FX and 26” FX features a brand-new cutting system and attachment/removal method offering unparalleled accuracy of cut and ease of maintenance. More details can be found by visiting stand 614.

Two new INFINICUT® mowers at BTME

The INFINICUT® stand is always awash with solutions designed to meet the exacting requirements for modern golf course maintenance, and BTME 2025 is shaping up to be no different. In the year since it’s launch, the 22” FL golf cutting unit has proven itself to be the most balanced mower for achieving low heights of cut with greenkeepers around the world. The two new models promise to build on this success, combining the very best in cut quality with technological advancements which not only benefit plant health, but optimise the operator experience.

Appreciating that every golf course is different and that course managers don’t necessarily follow the same maintenance doctrine, all INFINICUT® models offer the ability to quickly and easily alter a range of mower parameters via the InfiniApp™. Settings can also be stored for retrieval and/or simultaneously sent wirelessly to multiple machines in a fleet, reducing time and all-but eliminating differentiation between mowers.

One InfiniApp™ feature that has proven extremely popular with operators is ‘tilt and turn’. At the end of line turn, a sensor automatically detects that the mower is lifted and slows the unit down to a prechosen percentage of walk speed. Each individual operator can choose a slow-down rate that they are comfortable with and, when dropped back to the mow position, the regular mowing speed is engaged.

Further convenience is delivered thanks to the dedicated INFINICUT® trailer, offering the swift and safe transportation of 22” and 26” units between greens.

The technical team will be on hand across the three days to discuss the full INFINICUT® pedestrian range, together with the TMSystem™ collection of maintenance cassettes which transform the INFINICUT® or mainstream models of multi-gang mower into units for complete turf refinement.
