Campey Turf Care Systems are returning to GroundsFest with a top-tier lineup of machines, including the Imants ShockWave, Dakota Turf Tender, Foley Company Air2G2 336, and Campey UNIRAKE © , which are all poised for live demonstrations.

GroundsFest’s blend of outdoor and indoor stands provides an ideal platform for Campey to offer visitors hands-on insights into the operation and benefits of their machines.

Reflecting on last year’s event, Campey Turf Care Director Lee Morgado commented: “GroundsFest prioritises the visitor experience, and live demos are a key component. Showing the equipment in action is invaluable, and it allows us to solve more problems for people on the stand because they can physically see what our solutions can do.

“We can demonstrate performance, operational ease, and expected results, and that really allows us to engage with customers more effectively.”

Campey Machines in Action
For 2024, Campey has selected a diverse array of maintenance machines that cover aeration, top-dressing and surface grooming. The UNIRAKE © stands out for its versatility in managing organic matter. Users can easily adjust the grooming severity to remove varying amounts of material or to stand the sward up for growth, with adjustments taking less than 30 seconds.

Wide Area and Focused Aeration
The Imants ShockWave will demonstrate wide-area aeration. Renowned as the best linear compactor for heavily used areas, it revitalises fine turf and sports fields by alleviating soil compaction, enhancing aeration, and removing surface water, all with minimal surface disruption to ensure quick and safe play resumption.

For reactive, preventative and routine aeration on smaller or concentrated areas, the Foley Air2G2 336 remains the leading pedestrian aerator. Its ability to deliver instant results and allow immediate play has cemented its place in the industry since its debut and the chance to see it in action shouldn’t be missed.

Precision Topdressing
Dakota Turf Tenders are renowned for their consistency and infinite adjustment set-up. With a model for every application, it is the best top-dressing option in every situation. Electric control boxes enable users to set and adjust the spread width precisely, ensuring an optimal application every time while spreading wet or dry material. Getting hands-on with the controls of this machine is a fantastic opportunity to see how it can benefit your own operation.

Precision Overseeding
For areas needing overseeding where it is not possible to work with large machines, the Vredo Turf Buddy is the perfect fit. Designed for small repairs on sports fields and golf courses, the Vredo Turf Buddy is known for its precision overseeding with its slit seeding operation. It is an essential piece of equipment for improving and maintaining the quality of grass surfaces on golf courses, sports fields, and other similar areas.

For even more targeted seeding post-game, the new Campey Seed Shot deposits a precise quantity of seed into the soil for optimal germination rates.
