Horticulture

We see the horticultural industry as a huge growth area for our SCUD systems. As the labour shortage gets worse, we expect to see growers demand more productivity from their existing machinery. Our Groundsman can help growers do this, with its huge granule mixing capacity and speed of transfer, it can halve sprayer fill times which means you can get the capacity of three sprayers out of two.

With its 3-way IBC attachment, it can induct liquid product from an IBC at 300L/min at the flick of a tap. By introducing a clean, neat and organised environment, operators will naturally take to a system where they can see the benefit of improved efficiency and safety.

Some of these features are;

• Introducing camlocks and dry break couplings which leave the floor dry after filling.
• Closed chemical transfer
• Transfer of liquid products from IBCs at speeds of 200L/min (no more lifting IBCs above sprayers)
• The SCUD uses a unique “waterfold” mixing action which gives it massive granule mixing capacity.
• A built-in drum washer that lets you clean out drums as you go, transferring all rinse water into the sprayer which is also good for the environment.

The feedback we get from those using our Groundsman is that the SCUD introduces a system that gets everyone on the same page about how the job is done.
