Mowing Technology Roadmap for local government*

Local government mowing operations need to be productive and safe while meeting social expectations about environmental factors and enjoyment of public spaces. 


With the explosion of new technology including remote-controlled mowers, hybrid mowers and ultra-quiet electric mowers, Civiline’s Mowing Technology Roadmap will help local government to select the best mowing technology for different
applications.

While the latest technology offers increased opportunities for better worker safety and productivity, each mowing option has particular strengths and limitations. 

Inlon, the distributor of Civiline mowers, has produced a Mowing Technology Roadmap (pictured). The online version also explains the reasoning behind the Roadmap, which will further help decision makers.  

Managing Director of Inlon, Jim Jardim, explains, “For over 20 years, Inlon has been distributing commercial mowing machinery. 

“When introduced to the Spider remote-controlled 4-wheel drive mower in 2006, we started a long journey in understanding how new technology could solve many common and emerging mowing tasks with improved safety and productivity. 

“Progressively, as new technology came to market, we recognised each offered advantages and benefits in differing situations. We saw the need to develop a ‘roadmap’ to navigate the range of technology. 

“Importantly, there isn’t one mower that will suit every application. In the Roadmap, we define a range of mowing situations, from the simple and common, through increasing difficulty and specialist niches, to the extreme of mowing and land clearing applications.”

The Civiline range of clearing, mowing and grounds-care machinery includes brushcutters, verge mowers, reach mowers and remote-controlled 4-wheel drive and track slope mowers.
