Turf
Equipment - Pro Series Pro-Crimper
The
Pro-Crimper will save you valuable time and money -- putting
cash in your pocket! Erosion control is a big factor at any
job site, and resowing of seed during a project results in the
loss of valuable labor hours. With the Pro-Crimper mulch crimper,
you don't have to worry about water or wind destroying your
mulching and seeding efforts.
Working in a
Hard to Hold Area?
In those areas that are more likely to wash or erode, such as
a hillside or a grassed waterway, you can use the Pro-Crimper
to anchor your straw or hay mulch to the ground.
The Pro-Crimper will
eliminate the need for asphalt emulsion or other expensive adhesives
and insure that your project is less likely to erode.
The Pro-Crimper is available
in either 6 foot or 8 foot sizes -- and also is available in
a three point hitch version or a pull type. All units have everything
you need to take them right to work!
Surveys of home buyers
show that they consider a green lot to be significantly more
valuable than a brown lot. Further research has proven that
mulch will stay in place longer and substantially more seed
germination will occur when the covered area is properly crimped.
