Inside: Husqvarna
One of the World's Longest Continually Operating Companies Looks to the Future
Dating 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.
With a history like Husqvarna’s, of course, there is plenty of precedent to reference and wisdom born from experience, but overall Husqvarna has always put the user first. Husqvarna continues to be committed to quality, as well as technology and design advancements, to improve products. To that end, they have an incredibly talented team in North America and around the globe. The diverse skillsets of their people bring insights, creativity and the passion to drive new innovations. From the top-down, they care about the environment and improving the impact their products have so that they might leave this earth in a better condition for future generations.
Although petrol products remain the choice for most professional landscapers, Husqvarna is focused on anticipating the eventual adoption of battery-powered products by many. They are rapidly advancing the technology to meet commercial landscapers’ expectations. With noise and emission regulations changing in North America,
Husqvarna is invested in developing powerful commercial battery products that will have longer run times, feel lightweight and be comfortable to use all day.
Husqvarna’s product catalog spans across wheeled and handheld products, and features both gas-powered and battery options. From zero-turn and stand-on mowers, to string trimmers and chainsaws, Husqvarna offers the best in the industry, built to deliver comfort, superior performance and innovative design. Additionally, Husqvarna is the world leader in robotic mowing with Automower® for residential and commercial applications, as well as their latest commercial robotics entry, CEORA™.
Husqvarna wishes to emphasize their focus on the professional landscaper and arborist. They continue to innovate, testing new technologies and seeking ways to improve products. As advancements in technology make significant strides, they are innovating in conjunction with those advancements.
Whether it’s developing more efficient, gas-powered equipment, advanced commercial mowing, improving connectivity or engineering long-lasting battery products, Husqvarna will continue to evolve its turf care, offering to bring the best in comfort, efficiency, performance and durability to its commercial customers.
