Birmingham, England: Campey Turf Care Systems will have a major presence at the inaugural GroundsFest.

The combination of outdoor and indoor stands has made GroundsFest the perfect event for Campey to give visitors valuable in-action insights into machines, how they work and the difference they can make.

Among the Campey products on show at the event, to be held on September 20-21 at Stoneleigh Park in Warwickshire, will be the Imants ShockWave, Dakota Turf Tender, Foley Company Air2G2 336 and Campey UNIRAKE.

“GroundsFest is a new concept which puts the visitors at the forefront of the experience. One of those aspects is live demos, which makes the event more valuable to us as a company,” said Lee Morgado, Director at Campey Turf Care, a Full Business Member of the Asian Golf Industry Federation.

“As a machinery dealer and manufacturer, it is invaluable to show people exactly what the equipment can do, how it operates, and the results they can expect. It also allows us to answer questions in greater detail which benefits our customers, and that is what it’s all about,” he added.

For the show, Campey (stand OSA460) has chosen machines that encompass a range of maintenance practices.

For variable organic matter removal, the UNIRAKE is ideal. Users can adjust the severity of grooming to remove a varying amount of organic matter or simply stand the sward up to encourage growth. Altering the severity of grooming is quick and easy.

Sporting its new livery, the latest re-designed Imants ShockWave will be on show. It is designed to revitalise fine turf and sports fields by relieving soil compaction, improving aeration, and removing surface water, while causing minimal surface disruption so play can resume quickly and safely.

In smaller or tighter areas, the Foley Air2G2 336 remains the industry’s finest pedestrian aerator. Instant results and the immediate continuation of play have set this machine apart, making it a mainstay across many sports.

Completing the line-up of machinery is the Dakota Turf Tender. The top-dresser offers a high level of consistency with electric control boxes allowing users to set their width of spread an infinitely variable amount while ensuring it can be changed and returned to that width at any time.

Campey’s team of product specialists will be demonstrating the machinery and will be available throughout the two days to provide advice and answer questions.
