Come and see us at SALTEX 2023

SALTEX is a great event for the grounds and landscaping industry to showcase our latest technologies, products and innovations to anyone involved or interested in providing and managing products and services that contribute to the creation of quality maintenance and sports turf facilities.

This year we will be showcasing a wide range of products including:

Eco Weedkiller

Eco Weedkiller offers new technology for weed control based on hot water. The water is heated via electricity and then kept warm in an insulated tank. The device will keep its warmth (more than 100 degrees Celsius) for at least eight hours after disconnecting the power. The device does not need to be connected to the electricity network or water supply during use. You can go wherever you wish.

There are versions with a 300 litre and 600 litre storage tanks as well as a small Garden version with a 25 litre water tank.

Using water allows great penetration into the soil, allowing successful treatment of perennial plants with more established root systems in many situations. The rule of thumb is that 2–2.5 litres of hot water is needed per square metre in areas with 100% greenery coverage. This means that 300 litres of water is enough for 100–150 green square metres.

Ripagreen

The new generation of professional thermic hot air blowers has been invented by RIPAGREEN®. Its process forces high velocity hot air over the leaf of a plant.

This hot air instantly causes a thermal shock that breaks the chlorophyll producing part of the plant, the process of photosynthesis is prevented. The plant then dries naturally with a visible result after a few hours.

To effectively weed with RIPAGREEN®, it is not necessary to burn the plant, but only give it a "hot shot" (about 80 ° in the thickness of the leaf). The action is immediate, bringing a saving of time and consequent energy. The "reserves" in its roots of the plant will determine how effective the treatment is. This treatment is therefore more effective on plants at seedling / young shoot stage. With a regular frequency of passage, the plant will be weakened until it is exhausted.

HyCut

The HyCut Mower is a true hybrid machine. 3 independent electric motors power both the tracks and the cutting deck. These motors are powered directly from the 48v battery bank. The batteries are in turn charged by the on board petrol driven generator. The intelligent motors act in tandem, slowing down the tracks if necessary to allow the blades to work through denser vegetation. This not only gives a more consistent cut, but also saves a lot of fuel. The machine can travel up to 200 meters without needing charging input from the engine.

The mower deck can cut material in both directions, allowing for minimal turning on slopes, preventing the grass from being churned up by the tracks. The innovative 4 blade rotor design cuts and mulches the material with minimum power requirement.

The radio control is extremely intuitive, with incredibly fast machine response and easy to use, with a range of up to 300m and control over function sensitivity.

The machine can handle slopes of up to 55 degrees, without putting the operator at risk. If you are looking for a mower that will give a great finish, with low running costs and exceptional terrain handling capabilities, then this is the mower for you!
