Jebsen & Jessen major projects

Jebsen & Jessen major projects: Jebsen & Jessen Technology – Turf & Irrigation (JJ T&I), a division of the Technology business unit of diversified industrial conglomerate Jebsen & Jessen Group, has further cemented its presence in the region through major collaborations and partnerships with leading golf clubs in Singapore, Vietnam, and Indonesia.

In Singapore, JJ T&I gained a major vote of confidence from the world-renowned Sentosa Golf Club, as their long-standing relationship was marked by a new 10-year partnership in March 2022 – the first partnership in South East Asia of such scale. JJ T&I, as the official distributor of The Toro Company, will support Sentosa Golf Club’s mission to provide a world-class playing experience, through the supply of hybrid and electric equipment and water-saving irrigation systems. These will also complement the club’s commitment to its sustainability goals, with a pledge to be the world’s first carbon-neutral golf club by 2022.

In Ha Nam, Vietnam, JJ T&I will be supplying and installing the irrigation systems for the new 36-hole Rose Canyon Resort, designed by Nicklaus Design and developed by BRG Group. Alongside Toro, JJ T&I will be supplying the irrigation systems and providing irrigation installation services for the South course, which is expected to be completed in late 2022. Work on the North course will begin as soon as the South course has been completed.

Other new projects awarded to JJ T&I in Vietnam include the Golden Sands Golf Resort in Hue. The turnkey project is estimated to be completed within the second quarter of 2023, and JJ T&I will be handling all stages of the project, from supplying irrigation systems and materials to providing installation services.

JJ T&I was also awarded a contract in February 2022 by PT. Bogor Raya Development’s Klub Golf Bogor Raya, one of the most prestigious golf courses in Bogor, Indonesia, for the supply of golf course equipment. JJ T&I provided steadfast support for Klub Golf Bogor Raya in times of need, providing much-needed turf maintenance units after a fire damaged the premises. Klub Golf Bogor Raya was hosting a golf tournament the same day and the maintenance units supplied, which included lawn mower units, allowed them to maintain the golf courses and ensure the highest quality of standards for gameplay.

JJ T&I is dedicated to providing high-quality expertise and end-to-end solutions to meet all turf care and landscaping needs. We are proud that these golf clubs have put their trust in us and recognise the value that we provide, furthering our position as a leading full-service solution provider in the Southeast Asia region,” said Philipp Hoffmann, Regional Director of JJ T&I.

Eden Project’s Robotic Gardener

Eden Project’s Robotic Gardener: The Eden Project, a popular visitor destination, has added a new member to its horticultural team this spring.

Husqvarna Automower®, a robotic lawnmower which works unassisted throughout the day and night, has been installed at the Cornwall site to maintain the grounds surrounding the famous iconic bubble-like Biomes.

Eden Project's Robotic Gardener

Nestled in a huge crater the size of 30 football pitches, the Eden Project Horticultural team have a job on their hands keeping the lawns in immaculate condition all year round. To help save time, the team turned to Husqvarna for an eco-friendly solution.

Kevin Ashmore, Husqvarna Professional UK Manager said: “With sustainability at the heart of the Eden Project it was important that whatever solution we provided was as eco-friendly as possible and Husqvarna Automower® fits the bill.”

With over one million visitors a year, the Eden Project was impressed with Husqvarna’s battery ranges and the low noise and zero-emission features of Husqvarna Automower®.

Kevin added: “One of the key decision makers for the Eden Project was that Automower® could be programmed to run through the night so as not to impact on any visitors during the day.”

Niki Hall, Specialist Horticulturist at the Eden Project said: “Husqvarna Automower® brings fantastic benefits to our team. The arena is now in top condition and this allows more time for the horticulture team to spend in other areas rather than cutting the lawns. It is quiet and unobtrusive, though very funky – like a Formula One mower. It has no emissions and low energy consumption. It can also be used in all weathers.”

How does it work?

Husqvarna Automower® works via the installation of an electrical boundary wire around the desired cutting area. With a range of models capable of managing lawn sizes up to 5,000m² in any weather, Husqvarna Automower® can tackle even the most complex of lawns, including those with rough terrain and slopes up to 45%. For areas above 5,000m² more than one machine can be used to increase area coverage.

Cutting just a few millimetres of grass at a time, Automower® keeps lawns neat and healthy by distributing small grass clippings back into the lawn to act as a natural fertiliser. This means there is no need for the collection and disposal of grass clippings.

Husqvarna has been the world leader in robotic lawnmowers since it pioneered the technology in 1995, constantly refining and improving its machines to fit the needs of consumers. Today’s Automower® can work in rain or shine, day or night. Its clever system allows it to cut the lawn in random directions, making sure that each square foot is covered. When the mower’s charge runs low, it returns to its charging bay unassisted, meaning lawns become a hassle-free environment, affording you spare time to do other things.
