airter® the sports turf care of the future with active aerification
Unique in the world, the airter® loosens the turf layers homogeneously from 8 cm to a depth of more than 24 cmwith adjustable compressed air and in one continuous operation. 14 specially developed injection lances with different types of nozzles inject up to one million litres of air per working process into the ground of a football pitch. With regard to water infiltration, an improvement can be measured immediately on the treated surfaces. Even football pitches that tend to become waterlogged due to an unfavourable structural quality in terms of material selection and grain size distribution; soil properties as well as an unsuitable choice of substrate could be “defused” by working with the airter® with 2 to 9 bars of air pressure.
The airter as a maintenance machine can sustainably and extremely loosen strongly compacted sports turf soils with compressed air. It reaches all rooted areas and loosens the turf base layer there horizontally and homogeneously. These are the facts:
- Proven soil loosening of the turf base layer of at least 30%, the soil loosening lasts up to 4 weeks
- At the same time a 23% increase in lawn clippings was measured
- As well as up to 48% better water drainage in the soil
- Also the unwanted grubs (May and June beetles) and the Tipula larvae can be controlled
- Effectively - with the airter and biologically with compressed air to 100%.
- The oxygen from the aeration provides stronger roots and vital plant growth www.airter.com
- No more black layer!
