Somerset
based Sorbus International Ltd. are the appointed exclusive UK
distributors of the Japanese ARS range of high quality pruning
equipment. Established in 1876, ARS produce high quality saws,
secateurs, telescopic pruners, shears and loppers with the emphasis
on the highest standard of steel production.
"In the many years we
have been supplying arboriculture and grounds maintenance equipment,"
says Phil Wade, Sorbus' Managing Director, "this is the first
complete range of pruning tools we have come across that offers such
high quality, coupled with ergonomic design and superb cutting
ability. Yet it's economic and durable and one we are proud to
distribute in the UK."
The secret lies in a combination of impulse
hardening techniques that create a remarkable hardness for the
cutting blades, and hard chrome plating for rust proofing and
durability. The smooth surface is designed to prevent resin from
sticking and accumulating on the blades. There are also products for
fruit harvesting, flower arranging and handycraft uses. Sorbus
International is a leading supplier of specialist and hi-tech
equipment to the arboricultural, forestry, landscaping, utility,
ground maintenance and environmental care sectors in the UK and
worldwide. The company began with hi-tech decay detection products
for trees and timber structures and has developed to encompass a wide
range of products for landscaping, tree care, climbing, bracing,
lowering equipment, as well as safety, hi-viz, corporate and wet
weather clothing.
Sorbus have recently expanded and welcome dealer
and distributor enquiries for the ARS range and the opportunity to
supply equipment on a contract basis.
