Both the STMA (Disney’s Coronado Springs) and GIS (Orange County Convention Center) provide a perfect opportunity to showcase the extremely popular Vredo Super Compact / Compact and Turf Fix Series and the Koro FTM Universe rotor (patented).
Vredo Compact seeders are in Europe at Castle Stuart Golf Club, Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club, Royal Birkdale Golf Club, Royal Liverpool Golf Club, Royal Troon Golf Club, and St Andrews Links, The Aisla course at Trump Turnberry, Muirfield Golf Club and Carnoustie Golf Links, taking the Vredo’s participation in Open preparation to at least 2018.
The Vredo Compact and Super Compact Series Seeders are accurate and extremely precise disc seeders designed for overseeding golf greens and tees, sports pitches and other amenity grass. Due to the unique action of the Vredo seed application, the grass seed is placed in direct contact with the soil in a V-shaped slit, at a pre-set depth of between 5mm & 25mm deep. The slits are then closed by a compaction roller and a level surface re- established. This guarantees over 95% germination rates, reducing wastage to a negligible amount.
A double row of discs give 35mm seed spacing, providing a one-pass operation with no disruption to play even on fine turf.
The Vredo Turf Fix Series is a compact, multi-function, for seeding, dressing and aerating turf. This multi-function machine is perfect for professional landscapers, contractors and clubs, looking to carry out a number of renovation and maintenance tasks with just one machine.
Mounted or towed, the Turf-Fix can be used to over-seed, apply sand dressing, sand slitting and aerate, simply by fixing different attachments to a universal base unit and is compatible with tractors as small as 16hp.
A new machine to the United States is the Raycam Uni Rake, which will also be on show as the Campey Imants partnership continues to display new products to the American market. It coincides with the first one sold in the USA which has gone to Sterling Golf Club, Texas.
