SALTEX this week saw Gary and Sue Mumby launch their new venture, Mumby Machinery Ltd, which will specialise in new and used equipment for the turfcare, landscaping and construction markets.
This move means that they have parted company company with Blec - a company which they founded in 1986.
In a statement issued by Charterhouse Turf Machinery ahead of the show the company says that since purchasing the assets of BLEC Global Limited in August 2015, Redexim have worked closely with Gary Mumby to integrate the development and manufacturing of BLEC products into the Redexim BV operation.

This process, Charterhouse says, has given the opportunity to update certain designs of the Blec products and take full advantage of Redexim’s advanced manufacturing techniques; Redexim is now able to offer a range of BLEC products with parts and service support.
Gary Mumby will therefore not be involved in the sales and support of the BLEC product range within the UK and Ireland. Gary will, however, continue to supply parts under licence for machinery manufactured by Blec Global Limited.
Redexim say they would like to thank Gary for his assistance and wish him the best of luck for his business ventures.
Charterhouse Turf Machinery will take over full responsibly for all sales, parts and support of BLEC machinery in the UK and Ireland, distributing though selected dealers.
Mumby Machinery exhibited this week at SALTEX with two new machines as well as the Harley Power Rake which the company has been approved as UK distributor of.
The new machines were the Multi-Star 1400 which is a tractor mounted multi-use turfcare implement which can carry out surface aerification, overseeding, liquid feeding and initial seeding.
The other new machine was the Hydra Drive 900 is two wheeled tractor with a a hydraulic system for powering attachments including initially a rotor rake, double drive seeder annd power box rake - with other attachments to follow.
