Constantly adopting
new innovations is a principle of Richard Peel Groundcare and the addition of
the UK’s first Intelligent One Line Marker has brought a number of benefits to
the company and their customers.
The GPS guided
machine, supplied by Intelligent Marking’s UK distributor Rigby Taylor, can
mark a FIFA regulation 11v11 football pitch from scratch in 29-minutes 45
seconds and can also be used for track and field marking, rugby union and
league, lacrosse and customisable grids, shapes, and tracks.
Savings to customers
come directly in terms of labour and paint. The machine can mark out two to
three fields on one drum of paint depending on the nozzle used making it very
easy to calculate when new paint is needed.
For Richard Peel
Groundcare managing director, Richard Peel, being able to offer high-quality
line marking at an affordable price to customers.
“We’re always
looking at the new technology that’s coming into the market and I’m proud to
say we’ve purchased the first Intelligent One Line Marker in the UK,” he said.
“Line marking is a
skilled job that takes time and in the current climate restricted budgets make
it difficult for clubs and councils to consistently mark their pitches. By
using this marker, we can provide high-quality accurate marking every time
whilst cutting costs on paint and labour.
“The feedback we’ve
received from the demos we’ve done has been very positive and we expect the
machine to be in high-demand in the near future.”
The intelligent
nature of the machine means it is capable of marking a fixed socket 11-a-side
football pitch and fixed socket rugby union and league pitches. There is also
the option of marking a 11v11 football pitch with two 8-a-side pitches built in
with all football pitches customisable in length and width.
All running track
markings are also customisable in terms of the number of lanes, giving
customers a large variety of options to choose from across all sports.
