Briggs Irrigation has appointed Grimme UK Ltd to be its national dealer for the company’s boom and pump sets. This complements Grimme’s existing Beinlich Irrigation hose reel range.

“Briggs Irrigation is delighted to be supplying its full portfolio of booms and irrigation pumps to complement the Grimme range of hose reels,” says Briggs sales director Adrian Colwill.

The full range of Briggs booms, pumps and Grimme hose reels as well as an extensive range of irrigation supplies from pipes and fittings to seals and hoses are available through the four Grimme UK outlets at Swineshead, York, Ladybank and Shrewsbury and also through Grimme Ireland based near Dublin.

Grimme Irrigation sales manager Ed Hodson says that the Briggs boom is renowned for being the best boom on the market, and with growers now more aware of the need to apply water efficiently, the natural synergy between the two companies and combined unrivalled experience is excellent news for new and existing growers.

Founded in 1985, the company now concentrates on boom irrigation for farmers, growers and groundsmen. Working closely with each sector, Briggs Irrigation now makes and markets a range of advanced irrigation booms, used by successful UK farmers and increasingly on farms around the World.

Briggs booms are manufactured and maintained from the company's purpose-built factory in Corby The company also markets its own brand of hosereels and ancillary equipment including pumps.
