Husqvarna returned to Saltex at the NEC Birmingham this year to proudly present innovations in Battery and Robotic solutions for the landscaping industry.

Amongst existing products on display, new product launches included professional battery brush cutters, battery lawnmowers, battery chainsaws and battery hedge trimmers.

A bold decision to only display battery and robotic solutions with zero petrol machines paid off.

“As battery and robotic solutions are at the forefront of Husqvarna’s vision of a more efficient, cleaner and enjoyable way of working, we felt this is what we want to talk about with our customers. We had two days of fruitful discussion about how we can help people find a smarter way of working with our new green technologies” – Jonathan Snowball, UK Product Manager (Handheld).

The new Eco Village provided an opportunity for Husqvarna to speak to visitors, Jonathan Snowball presented the new 535iRXT Battery Brushcutter and the 520iHT4 Battery Telescopic Hedgetrimmer alongside Fleet Services™. A small selection of Husqvarna Automower® high profile installations we also presented such as Blenheim Palace, Hatfield House and Tower of London to show how Automower® can work successfully in complicated and public environments.

“The 70% slope for the AWD Automower© certainly added impact and a wow factor, coupled with the open public park theme it drew people in giving plenty of space to engage and talk with visitors. We were all very busy from 10am right through until 2:30pm on both days which was really positive. We look forward to following up with some of the contacts and people over the next few weeks.” - Kevin Ashmore, UK Manager Professional.
