Gardena and McCulloch presented in Madrid their new products and the renewed range Classic

Gardena some years ago that presents their annual innovations in peculiar places, or charming. This year, the chosen site was a former Studio of sculptor, remodeled Hall of events, in which only enter saw the new jewel in the Crown of McCulloch, Mowcart 66. This is a hybrid, smaller than the usual tractor Garden, but with a seat and vehicle so easily manageable as a lawn mower.

This vehicle, which is already on sale with no basket, is a result of the work and investment in innovation. It is a type of vehicle which occurs in Spain for the first time that, according to representatives of McCulloch, has 15% of characteristics of a tractor, 55% of a lawn mower and 30% in innovation. But its main attraction is undoubtedly the price.

Mowers tractors usually have a price between 1,500 and 3,000 euros. East Mowcart 66, on the other hand, is also a high power cutter, hits the market a price slightly higher than 1,000 euros, with a complement of 200 euros if the buyer wishes to include a basket to collect cut matter. Taking into account how much that has lowered consumption in Spain, from the company they expect that the price may be decisive in this seemingly endless recession.

After inspecting and take about 150 pictures MowCart 66, we enter into the study referred to above, where all the products of Gardena and McCulloch were exposed. The general director of marketing and communication of Spain and Portugal of Gardena, Marine Flauhault, accompanied us on the visit by each of the stands. The route began on the lawn mower, which have experienced a renewal, with the redesign of part of its structure and the collection basket.

The new range of mowers McCulloch is provided with several new features such as a rear wheel of bigger size, a new basket, more easily manageable, or rear-wheel drive. Also important are engines Briggs Stratton, in his series 450, 500, 550 and 650, in addition to the engine Honda GCV 135, which lies in the model M51. Another most remarkable innovation is the adjustable handlebar which has this new range of products, which greatly facilitates the work of save the mowers in smaller places. The baskets are made of steel or rigid polyethylene (depending on model) and have a capacity of between 50 and 79 liters.

Cutting blades also vary depending on the model, between 40 and 53 cm in length, cutting at varying heights of 25-101 mm, with settings of individual court, semicentralizado or centralized. The power of the motor varies among the 135 cc model M51-135 and the M56-875 190cc.

As it is approaching the heat (although still seems distant) should go looking and looking for those objects that eventually become essential in our garden. An example of this are tanks Garden, or portamangueras, one of those products which, for your convenience, we know when it goes into our House, but not when it comes out. It is a tool that helps us to transport the hose easier for the garden and home, and that provides a method of storage in a small space.

One of the main novelties Gardena offers in its portamangueras of the Classic range is greater stability after a redesign of its components or a swivel coupling hose that makes easier the use of the same (avoiding it to be stuck or to not turn properly). This will allow buyers a total freedom of movement by their manageability and its limited space. A large wheel with soft lining help in this regard, providing stability and a smooth scrolling for the garden, just without leaving traces in the same.

In addition, a hitch and a non-drip system avoids the unwanted (but resfrescantes, when it heats the heat) exhaust water that sometimes occur when we use them or after use. On the other hand, Gardena Roll-Up wall brackets provide a clean and safe way of picking up the hose. In this way, turning the hose until the desired length, after use, we can do to be collect with a small stretch in portamangueras, automatically and uniform.

Both in their cart formats, such as their Classic formats or spool equipped portamangueras are appropriate solutions to any garden.

On the other hand, Gardena also took to present its latest in programming systems of automatic irrigation, such as the new programmer 4030 Classic, able to schedule four independent irrigation channels, or the 6030, of six channels.

Gardena, one of the most brought in Spain, has completed 50 years. It was created in 1961 in Ulm, Germany, and it has since then become one manufacturers of tools and solutions for the garden with a greater recognition in Europe. According to Manuel Castro, director-general in Spain and Portugal, "50 years Gardena has developed new products, investing in innovation and technical improvements". In addition, according to the Steering, his company "represents the innovation at the service of the user and their tools make the work easier and more comfortable garden." "Our products are solutions so everyone can enjoy to the maximum of care of the garden."

Confirming this, we must remember that Gardena has a catalogue of 800 references, grouped in the family of the water and the family in the care of the garden. With an average of 50 new products every year this company has been traditionally by respect for the environment, with products that perform intelligent consumption of water and energy savings.

The majority of its products incorporate high-tech as batteries of Li-ion or the system Quick Fit, the fact that it proves your bet by innovation. Not in vain, this brand was the inventor of the "clic" system (the well-known O.G.S. connectors), that are currently used worldwide.
