Product Update
A round-up of the latest product news announced in recent weeks
Reesink Turfcare is the new distributor of Franklin water pumps to the UK and Ireland. The turfcare distributor has secured a range of high-quality pumping systems for clean and dirty water in submersible and surface applications.
The ES, VS and EV series are suitable for pumping clean water through irrigation systems at golf clubs and sports grounds, and the EGT and EGF series provide the solution for dirty water extraction from reservoirs, streams etc.
The ES series includes the five-inch compact close-coupled submersible multistage pump with 50Hz for flow up to 7.5m³/h. It's small and installation is easy as it's not necessary to connect the pump to a control panel.
The new Air2G2 336 is the most productive pedestrian aerator on the market, with 36- inch probe centres allowing operators to cover ground quicker with the same industry- leading results.
Aeration has always been an integral aspect of sports turf maintenance, and the introduction of the original Air2G2 revolutionised the process. The principle of laterally injecting air using three probes up to 12-inches below the surface has decompacted countless greens, pitches and courts.
The factors of no surface disruption and the option to operate the machine in wet conditions have seen many rely on the Air2G2 as their go- to solution for game or course saving aeration across all levels of professional, semi and non- professional sport. The ability to aerate when needed rather than working at designated times is also a bonus
Consistent use of the machine is proven to create surfaces that are healthy, firm and free draining. This happens over time because the pressurised air fractures the hardpan layers without disrupting roots while increasing pore space which promotes faster drainage and root development.
In turn, this respiration forces oxygen in and pushes CO2 and other anaerobic gases out for root zone gas exchange.

The hydraulic design of the four-inch submersible VS series enhances overall efficiency, reduces energy consumption and makes the pumping systems more cost effective. The 50Hz deals with flow up to 24m³/h.
The EV Series features multistage surface pumps with single free-flow impellers which are good for irrigation systems with a flow up to 120m³/h with the 50Hz.

Siems Turfgrass Ltd will operate two independent services available to golf courses, football clubs and all other grass sport surfaces.
The consultancy side of the business is providing site-specific golf course management consulting, tailored to support clients in improving all aspects of golf course maintenance, from improved budget management to course construction and renovation.
Additionally, Dryject is being reintroduced into the UK and Ireland. The machine offers sand injection that also aerates, topdresses and amends in one pass, with playing surfaces ready for play within one hour after treatment.
DryJect uses a high-speed, water-based injection system to blast aeration holes through the root zone to fracture the soil. The patented vacuum technology simultaneously fills holes to the surface with high volumes of sand or amendment. This means it can relieve compaction, increase water infiltration, reach the rootzone with oxygen and amend the soil with high volumes of material all at the same time, using wet or dry sand,
