SAPCA member, Redexim, has launched a new, self-powered topdresser that works without a tractor or hydraulic connection.
The new Sandstorm has a 28 ft³ (800 L) capacity and can spread up to 39 ft (12 m), so groundskeepers and other users can cover more ground with fewer refills, while staying light on turf.
Designed to make topdressing simple and equipped with its own engine, Sandstorm operates independently of a tractor or hydraulic system – it can be hitched to a utility vehicle and it is ready for work. It is also compatible with a wide range of vehicles, including the Toro Workman, John Deere ProGator and Cushman Truckster XT.
Redexim’s Jason Jones, said: “With many turf managers relying heavily on utility vehicles and not always having immediate access to tractors, the Sandstorm provides a practical and efficient solution that fits into their maintenance programmes.
“The launch of the Sandstorm Topdresser is particularly exciting for the North American market because it aligns with the day-to-day operational realities our customers face.”
