Research suggests that 17 million gallons of petrol are spilled and wasted each year by gardeners. But thanks to its 56v lithium-ion batteries, pollution isn’t a problem for EGO gardeners.
Research also shows operating a petrol powered lawn mower produces as much pollution as driving a car for 45 miles – the equivalent to over 12 laps of the Silverstone circuit!

Constant washing and use of the hands when gardening can affect the skin and in some cases cause infection. O’Keeffe’s Working Hands is an
innovative hand cream for those that rely on their hands daily. Differing from other hand creams, Working Hands is odourless with a non-
oil based formula and a high concentration of Glycerin, pulling water in rather than repelling it so hands get the moisture they need to get better, repairing and protecting chapped and dry skin.
