Prioritizing Sustainability Through Innovation

To prioritize the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, our company is actively transitioning to low-emission outdoor power equipment and exploring battery-operated alternatives for small handheld equipment like blowers, edgers, hedge trimmers, chain saws, and weed eaters. Traditionally, these tools have relied on two-cycle engines.

While battery technology offers a more sustainable solution, the upfront cost can be higher compared to traditional gas-powered equipment. However, we're actively testing new battery-powered options and working with manufacturers to develop a powerful alternative for gas-powered leaf blowers.

Electric & Battery-Operated Small Equipment

Battery technology is rapidly developing, offering a more environmentally friendly alternative for powering small equipment. We've begun the transition towards these options in our fleet, and we're constantly monitoring and working with manufacturers to improve their efficiency.

Our biggest challenge currently lies in replacing gas-powered leaf blowers, a critical tool in our work. While the technology for comparable battery-powered alternatives is improving, we believe it may still be a few years before a viable solution arrives. In the meantime, we're actively testing new products from trusted partners and working towards a more sustainable future for this equipment category.

Battery Operated & Robotic Mowers

Battery-operated mowers are revolutionizing the landscape industry, and we're at the forefront of this exciting shift. We're piloting their use on specific properties to analyze their performance in real-world scenarios. This allows us to gather valuable data on factors such as cutting efficiency, battery life, and adaptability to different terrains. By analyzing this data, we can develop best practices tailored to our unique operational requirements.

We're also exploring the potential of robotic mowers through comprehensive evaluations of their performance, navigation, battery life, and obstacle avoidance. While still in the preliminary phases of testing, these autonomous devices hold the promise of further transforming the way we manage lawns in the future.
