In practical terms, we have built in a commitment to cleaner, smarter operations to every working day. Across our farms, we’ve invested in three Firefly electric–hybrid turf harvesters. They have reduced fuel use significantly, cut emissions and improved efficiency across thousands of acres. These machines have become a core part of our resilience strategy: lower noise, lower running costs and a smaller environmental footprint without sacrificing output.

Not only that but several of our sites now generate their own renewable energy through on‑site solar installations. In effect, this reduces our reliance on the grid, stabilises long‑term energy costs and supports the wider decarbonisation of our operations.

Kress sits naturally within this wider approach. So, both the tools we supply and the machinery we operate reflect the same principle. Performance and sustainability should work together, not against each other.

In summary, the expectations placed on our sector are changing. Firstly, customers want quieter, cleaner operations. Secondly, contractors want predictable running costs. Thirdly, grounds teams want tools that reduce fatigue and improve safety. And finally, organisations of every size are under pressure to reduce emissions. But commercial‑grade battery technology – when engineered properly – answers all of these needs.

Kress is helping to raise the bar. We’re proud to make that capability available to the professionals who rely on us.
