Germinal has launched a new amenity website, the aim of which they say is to simplify the process for landscape architects and turf professionals to select the most appropriate grass seeds, wildflower mixtures and fertiliser options.
The new website, www.germinalamenity.com, includes complete specifications and usage guides for Germinal’s Grade ‘A’ range of landscaping and sports grass seed mixtures as well as full details of its grass and wildflower landscaping mixtures for everything from low maintenance reclaimed land to saline road verges, shaded habitats, fine lawns and an array of natural habitats. All product details can be cut and pasted into external documents, making it simple for landscape architects to insert them directly into the appropriate project specification.
“As well as constantly investing in research and development to bring first class grass and wildflower seeds and turf care products to the landscaping and sports turf sectors, we are also conscious of the constant need to provide the industry with the latest news and advice,” explains Richard Brown, Germinal Amenity Sales Manager.
“Our range of ‘Grade A’ grass seed mixtures is always evolving. The new website has therefore been developed to make it easier for new and existing customers to keep abreast of our developing range of products and to enable them to specify the most appropriate products to suit each site’s individual requirements.
“We’ve also populated the new website with a collection of advice guides and video resources covering a range of useful topics from simple over-seeding and sowing ‘how-to’ guides, to more detailed explanations of the importance of key success factors such as soil pH, the use and application of macro and micro nutrients and how to physically manage recently renovated and established swards and amenity landscapes.”
The website also contains a selection of standardised fertiliser plans - written and designed by Germinal’s FACTS (Fertiliser Advisers Certification and Training Scheme) qualified experts - to enable everyone from novice gardeners to professional turf growers to get the best results from their amenity facilities.
The new website also features a ‘Product Selector’ tool which has been designed to make it as easy and simple as possible for landscape architects to find the most appropriate products for each project’s specific needs.
Another new section, which contains details of a range of CPD resources and seminars, has also been added.
