and tractor pulled machines. In 2005, Hayter was acquired by the American-owned Toro Company. The Toro Company boasts an equally rich history of offering innovative turf maintenance equipment and irrigation around the world. Toro supplies their specialist turf management products to international sites and events such as, Real Madrid Club de Fútbol in Spain, Walt Disney World® Resort and the Wimbledon Championships, among


many others.


The two companies have their individual merits and specialisms when developing new products, but have in the years since the acquisition very much looked to work more closely together. The companies have been able to establish a rich exchange of expertise and technology, and the result of this was revealed in November of 2018, when Toro showcased the new ProStripe® 560 mower for the first


time at the NEC.


The ProStripe is aimed at premier sports venues, municipalities, resorts and golf clubs, and combines the benefits of a precise cut and striped finish seen in larger professional mowers, with the simplicity of a walk power mower.


The ProStripe in action


The Toro ProStripe combines its all American roots in premier turf management, with the British understanding of high precision cutting technology, very much synonymous with Hayter. The model is the next step in Toro’s mission to design and produce more equipment locally in the UK, to further build the international strength and significance of the UK mower and garden equipment industry. Anthony Nadalin, Senior Marketing Manager for Toro Europe said: “We understand how important it is for turf professionals to have the right product for the surface they are working with.” “Innovation has always been at the heart of both Hayter and The Toro Company and we were excited to see how our different backgrounds and areas of expertise could work together to develop new and exciting products. It is through this desire for sharing and building on our different strengths that we have created the Toro ProStripe. It has been a very collaborative project between our two companies and the result is a Toro mower designed and manufactured in the UK particularly for the UK sports market.” “We are excited to continue to apply this collaborative approach to our future projects and deliver more innovative, high quality products from Hayter and The Toro Company. Just like Douglas Hayter’s first-ever mower, we strive to break new ground across the lawncare industry and offer the best equipment, whether you’re a keen home gardener or a professional groundskeeper.”
