Turney Groundcare held their first Commercial Open Day in the picturesque surroundings at Oxford University Parks on Wednesday, 14th May.
It was supported by many of their suppliers and attended by horticultural teams from the Oxford University Colleges, landscaping contractors and professionals, schools, and council customers.
On display from Ransomes was Aurora; the first commercial battery-powered out-front rotary mower which could be seen cutting in action in the large demonstration area in the park.
Turney say there was a solid representation and customer interest in zero-turn mowers by Ariens and Hustler, with many customers having a go at mastering the technique. Another strong presence was STIHL’s commercial team with a wide display of professional hedgecutters, strimmers, blowers, chainsaws, PPE, and mowers.
Iseki machines included the TG tractor, SXG 327 ride-on cut and collect mower, and the Addax utility vehicle. Robotic technology was also a highlight, with the Husqvarna Ceora and 580L EPOS professional robots working wirelessly.
Sammy Denne, group marketing manager at Turney, said, "Feedback from suppliers and customers who attended the event was overwhelmingly positive. The day presented a fantastic opportunity to see the machines in person and a unique opportunity to try so many in one space."
