Toro leads the charge to OPE electrification

Toro leads the charge to OPE electrification: Drawing on a century of expertise and engineering excellence, Toro has launched the Revolution Series, combining the brand’s proven outdoor power equipment (OPE) expertise with pioneering battery technology.

Aimed at groundskeeping, facilities maintenance, gardening and landscaping professionals, as well as municipal authorities, Toro’s Revolution Series delivers a more sustainable product with like-for-like performance with equivalent petrol or diesel machines.

With other significant benefits to the end user – including less direct exposure to carbon dioxide emissions and reduced noise and vibration – Toro has also launched a campaign promoting the benefits of switching to battery-powered outdoor equipment, called ‘Lead the Charge’.

Anthony Nadalin, director of marketing at The Toro Company said: “As one of the world’s leading manufacturers, we have a responsibility to drive decarbonisation in outdoor power equipment. For Toro, this means leading the charge from the front. We are a passionate advocate for this change and through our extensive range of electric-powered equipment, our focus is to meet the growing demands of outdoor maintenance professionals.”

As a global leader in outdoor power equipment, Toro’s ‘Lead the Charge’ campaign also helps highlight the savings that can be made by switching to all-electric OPE, as well as providing clear and accurate information about pricing and performance.

Lead the Charge aims to help owners and operators of commercial OPE to understand exactly what all-electric OPE can now achieve in terms of performance, sustainability and cost savings.

“By presenting all the information in a factual and user-friendly way, we can help landscaping professionals and municipal authorities to make truly informed decisions,” added Anthony. “Our customers have trusted us for over 100 years and our latest campaign, Lead the Charge, is about Toro repaying that trust by giving them the confidence to transition to cleaner, more cost-effective outdoor power equipment.”

The Revolution Series is easy to maintain and cost-effective to run, lowering the total cost of ownership while contributing to greater business efficiency. For further details, visit https://sites.Toro.com/leadthecharge/index.html.

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.”

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.”
