Trilo to showcase versatile vacuum sweepers at SALTEX: Trilo return to SALTEX 2024, promising to showcase the very best in versatile vacuum sweepers on stand K058.

Long regarded as the industry-leader in leaf and debris collectors, the Trilo range spans models from 3-30m3 to suit a range of environments from roadside verges to sports turf, golf courses to green spaces. Powerful suction combined with clever, modular construction makes for effortless removal of leaves, pine needles, clippings and other debris, making light work of the most time-consuming tasks of the autumn and winter months. The unique configuration of the Trilo vacuums provides the option of a cab-controlled hose or handheld wanderhose, bringing further efficiencies to the clearance of ditches, gulleys and other hard to reach spaces.

When leaf fall season is complete, and other vacuum sweepers are resigned to the sidelines, the Trilo Multipurpose works on. A range of attachments are available for effective scarification or convenient cut and collect, all of which can be swapped in and out in under an hour, with minimal tools, for less time in the workshop and more time in the field.

The Trilo scarifier shaft is available with a range of knife options, to suit the scarification of large areas such as fairways or public parks, with the extracted material collected into the high-capacity hopper in the same pass. Alternatively, a flail shaft can be fitted for the efficient cut and collection of golf roughs, highway verges or the annual maintenance of wildflower meadows.

Whether it’s leaves, organic matter or clippings, all waste can be easily emptied thanks to the Trilo hydraulic high-tip function, offering the controlled disposal into compost or waste containers.

More information on the Trilo range, together with other offerings from Trilo such as the Progressive portfolio of trailed and mounted rotary mowers, can be found by speaking to the technical team on stand K058 across the two days.

GKB to showcase solutions for all at SALTEX: Whether aeration, overseeding or topdressing of natural surfaces is on the agenda, or routine brushing or more intensive renovations of synthetic surfaces is required, visitors to SALTEX are guaranteed to find robust and reliable solutions on the GKB Machines stand, H053, this October.

From the natural portfolio, a particular highlight promises to be the GKB Combislit, which will be making its SALTEX debut. With the climatic challenges driving an ever-increasing requirement for regular aeration, the Combislit delivers fast and effective relief to depths of up to 15cm (6”) with minimal surface disruption. Available in 1.6m and 2.0m working widths, the Combislit uses GKB’s unique Evolvente® blades to spike and open all types of natural and hybrid surface ensuring optimal oxygen and moisture movement and linking up with deeper decompaction work conducted throughout the season.

The Combislit joins the Deep Tine Aerator (DTA) and the multi-functional Sandfiller in the GKB aeration portfolio, offering effective solutions for sports pitches, golf courses and other intensively managed green spaces.

Also on display will be the GKB Combitool. The Combitool gives turf managers the option of conducting multiple operations such as slitting, raking, rolling and brushing in one quick and simple pass. Delivering versatility and value for money, the Combitool is available in 1.2m, 1.6m, 2.0m or 2.4m working widths and is ideal for multi-sport venues, schools, local authorities and contractors.

The GKB technical team will be on hand across the two days to discuss the full range of equipment available for natural turf, together with maintenance machinery for synthetic surfaces – such as the GKB Deep Clean. The Deep Clean quickly and effectively screens and cleans out contaminants from all types of synthetic pitch. The combination of a vibrating screen and vacuum unit removes dirt, dust and detritus returning clean, de-compacted infill to your surface for optimal play performance.

More information is available on stand H053 as SALTEX returns on the 30th and 31st October 2024.

Henton & Chattell to showcase new EGO lineup: Leading machinery distributor, Henton & Chattell, will be returning to both GroundsFest and SALTEX in the coming months to unveil its new product introductions for 2025, as well as highlighting the most popular lines across its portfolio.

The new lineup from EGO Power+, which Henton & Chattell is the exclusive distributor of, will take centre stage.

A key focus on the stand at both shows will be the ‘Cobra Fortis powered by EGO’ range of cylinder mowers that was created from the collaboration that unites Cobra’s machinery expertise with EGO’s innovative battery technology. Last year, Cobra launched its Fortis range of petrol-powered cylinder lawnmowers with eight interchangeable cartridges, to create the ultimate lawncare system. Now, it has partnered EGO Power+ to provide the same level of lawncare for those who prefer a battery alternative. The new ‘Fortis powered by EGO’ mowers offer the same extensive specifications and cutting expertise as the petrol models, with the addition of the revolutionary power and eco-credentials of EGO’s 56volt Arc Lithium battery technology. There are four sizes available in the Fortis range, starting with a compact 14” model, and ranging to 17”, 20” and 25”. They are all self-propelled and have a three-way drive facility, allowing the blades to be disengaged without having to stop the engine.

Alongside the EGO range, H&C will also be showcasing its extensive range of lawn tractors that launched in 2023. The Cobra lawn tractor range has already expanded and now features 10 different models, with cutting decks sized between 34” and 42”. The latest addition, the LT108HS2L model, is perfect for those with expansive outdoor spaces up to 1.8 acres in size. Equipped with a V-Twin Loncin OHV 586cc engine, this lawn tractor is both reliable and powerful, and covers large lawns quickly and efficiently.

Further products from Billy Goat and WoodBay Turf Technologies will also be on display, and representatives from the Henton & Chattell team will be on stand at both shows to meet with customers to discuss their requirements and explain the products.

DLF announce new ‘Showcase’ facility

/in , /by

DLF announce new ‘Showcase’ facility: Work is underway on a brand new ‘Showcase’ facility at DLF’s UK headquarters in Inkberrow, Worcestershire. Scheduled to be fully operational by Spring 2025, the Showcase sees six hectares dedicated to amenity seed trials, product development, training and education for staff, distributors and customers – making it one of the largest of its kind in the UK.

Alongside plots sown with current cultivars and mixtures, the Showcase will have an area dedicated to new and upcoming developments giving visitors the chance to exclusively see and compare future trial and demo formulations. It will also be the base for a sizeable programme of UK testing which feeds into the global picture of climate and disease tolerance trials, ensuring that the mixtures of tomorrow are the most resistant, fit for purpose and sustainable to tackle the environmental challenges faced in the amenity market.

Centre to the Showcase will be a sports zone, featuring a hybrid winter sports pitch, cricket wicket, tennis court and small-scale golf tee, fairway and green, sown with mixtures from across the DLF portfolio by specialist contactors Fineturf who were commissioned with the construction. Having worked with many of the UK’s leading sporting venues including Lords Cricket Ground, AELTC and Tottenham Hotspur FC, Fineturf were the ideal fit for the project, utilising the very latest in their hybrid turf technology.

Commenting on the work, Amenity Sales & Marketing Manager Derek Smith said, “It’s incredibly exciting to see the start of what promises to be an industry-leading facility and asset to the Johnsons Sports Seed, Masterline and MM Seed brands. A big thank you to the Fineturf team for their work to date, and over the next six months we look forward to the construction of new conference facilities and the continued extension of the sample plots to give us a fully-functioning training centre come the Spring.”

The exciting news is the latest in a programme of ongoing investment by the world’s leading grass seed breeders. The end of 2023 saw the installation of Inkberrow’s new £3.5m ‘Titan’ mixing plant technology, together with recent expansion of DLF’s UK native wild flower production which now spans an area of over 80 acres.

Further updates on the project are expected in the new year.
