STIGA A1500: impressive technology and design

“High-quality design plays an important role at STIGA, because our devices should not only impress technically, but also visually,” says Amanda Kincaid, Marketing Manager at STIGA UK. “STIGA A 1500 combines exactly that and revolutionizes lawn care: intelligent and advanced technology with high-quality product design”. The cordless robotic lawnmower has patented AGS technology (Active Guidance System) with which mowing processes can be planned in advance.

Everything from installation, to managing cutting zones, cutting times, height of cut is managed through the STIGA.Go APP.

The autonomous garden robot, is available from STIGA specialist robot dealers and direct through stiga.co.uk website.

“The Red Dot Design Award is a great honour for us,” emphasizes Amanda. Internationally, the Red Dot is one of the most coveted seals of quality.

New business for renowned greenkeeper

/in , /by

New business for renowned greenkeeper: Chris Haspell, formerly course manager at Castle Stuart Golf Links in Scotland, and project manager of the ill-fated Coul Links project near Royal Dornoch has launched a turf and golf business consultancy.

Chris Haspell & Associates aims to help golf clubs across the world deal with turf, construction, ecological and machinery issues, among other services. Haspell, who has 35 years in the industry and has already consulted at clubs including North Berwick and St Enodoc, originally made his name at Horsholm Golf in Denmark, where he led a reconstruction of the 27-hole complex.

Recently, as well as leading the attempt to build Coul Links for developers Todd Warnock and Mike Keiser, Haspell has project managed the construction of the New course at Les Bordes in France for architect Gil Hanse, with whom he first worked at Castle Stuart. “We were completely confident that in our absence, due to the pandemic, the grow-in would proceed magnificently, and it has! We cannot recommend him highly enough,” said Hanse.

As well as his own consulting business, Haspell is continuing to work with American super-developer Mike Keiser on a number of projects – he has consulted on the growing of fescue at a number of Keiser’s projects, including Bandon Dunes in Oregon and Cabot Cliffs in Canada. “Chris Haspell has that rare magic touch with all things golf,” said Keiser.
