Ferris Mowers to showcase all-new Z1-P stand-on range at GroundsFest 2026

Ferris Mowers is set to showcase its latest professional mowing solutions at GroundsFest 2026, with the all-new Z1-P stand-on mower range taking centre-stage ahead of its European launch in spring 2027.

With the Ferris team and UK distributor T H WHITE Machinery Imports on hand throughout the show, visitors to stand H20 will have the opportunity to see and try the new Ferris Z1-P Series first-hand.

The stand-on platform is designed from the ground up for the professional landscaper who demands agility, productivity and comfort. The new design provides easy serviceability and maintenance access.

The new Z1-P stand-on mowers are fitted with Ferris’ patented Triple™ mowing technology; heavy-duty, configurable decks that can handle daily commercial use. All parts needed to convert from rear to side discharge, or mulching, are included in the box.

Headlining the range is the new compact 81 cm model, specifically designed to fit through narrow gates, bringing commercial stand-on productivity to confined spaces where larger machines can’t fit. The range is completed by a 91 cm and a 122 cm model.  

Furthermore, the operator platform has been widened and cleated footrests have been added, which improves comfort and stability across uneven ground.  The operator enjoys effortless operation thanks to the redesigned easy-access dashboard, paired with automatic PTO shutdown that instantly stops the blades when you step off the platform. This allows you to safely clear obstacles and quickly resume mowing without restarting the engine.

Simplified service points and accessible transaxles also help reduce maintenance time and keep operators working for longer. For peace of mind, warranty has been extended from 500 to 750 hours or 4 years, whichever comes first. During the first 2 years you can enjoy unlimited hours.

Alongside the new Z1-P, GroundsFest visitors will be able to explore Ferris’ wider range of professional mowing equipment, with solutions designed to support productivity, performance and operator comfort in demanding commercial applications.

Phillipp Deubel, Senior Director Sales EMEA at Briggs & Stratton said: “GroundsFest is a valuable opportunity for us to showcase how Ferris continues to develop professional mowing solutions around the real demands of contractors and grounds care teams.

“The new Z1-P is a great example of that approach, combining Ferris’ focus on productivity, operator comfort and durability in a completely new platform. We’re particularly excited to bring the compact 81cm model to the UK market, giving professionals greater access to the benefits of stand-on mowing in tighter spaces.”

GroundsFest 2026 takes place on 16th and 17th September at Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire. Ferris Mowers and T H WHITE Machinery Imports can be found on stand H20.
