“We’re excited to announce our UK partnership with Stogger Turf Care,” says Wildwood Machinery managing director James Bastian. “I’m confident that Stogger’s LED light rigs are on the point of revolutionising turf care across the professional football world, and we are fully committed to working alongside them to deliver business growth in the UK.”

Environmental regulations mean that up to 70% of Premiership and – dependent on the final form of the legislation – up to 95% of lower league clubs, who are currently still dependent on High-Pressure Sodium (HPS) light rigs as part of their turfcare regime, will be obliged to transition to more environmentally-friendly LED light rigs.

Netherlands-based Stogger Turf Care – whose LED light rigs lead the market in innovation and quality* – is therefore gearing up for significant new business activity. In anticipation of this, Stogger and Wildwood Machinery have signed a partnership agreement. Wildwood will be the first point of contact for existing and potential new clients in the UK.
