'All our machines are designed with low ground pressure in mind to minimise damage to turf, so you can 'drain today and play tomorrow'.

'We also use stainless steel in our machines; it is 30% stronger than mild steel. It will not rust and it improves performance as the soil flows better over it. All of these factors are key to reducing running costs for our customers, improving output and efficiency.'
