HUSQVARNA ONE OF THE WORLD’S LONGEST CONTINUALLY OPERATING COMPANIES LOOKS TO THE FUTURE
ZERO TURN (ZRT) MOWER
D
ating back to the 1600s, Husqvarna is one of the world’s longest continually operating companies. In that long period, they have produced innovative products with advanced features, leading many industries into the future. From rifles to robots, Husqvarna has leveraged their know-how into designing new products and challenging existing solutions. This was well exemplified by the development of Husqvarna’s first chainsaw. Existing chainsaws on the market at the time caused problems with noise pollution. By using the same technology used for motorcycle mufflers, which was developed in-house, the noise level of the Husqvarna 90 was cut down to half that of the competition. Anti-vibration technologies were also a huge step forward in improving the comfort and health of operators. These innovations have continued to advance the industry and can be found in many of their commercial handheld power tools. Husqvarna remains squarely focused on meeting—and exceeding—the needs of arborists and green space professionals, leveraging innovation and advancements in technology to provide the best performance, comfort and durability in the industry. Whether it is with efficient and powerful gas-powered products or their ever-evolving battery equipment, Husqvarna is committed to commercial landscapers and committed to leading the way with the next generation of turf care solutions.
