Given how advanced our technology has become it’s amazing to think we’ve not managed to engineer a sweeping brush that can live with the demands imposed by trying to keep equestrian centre surfaces clean and tidy.
Every yard I’ve ever visited has a “sweeping brush graveyard” of one form or another with brushheads and handles with one or the other broken or just refusing to work together any more! Even worse is the bristles are often barely used.
Sweeping yards is often very time consuming and inefficient especially if your staffing numbers are tight as there’s always lots to get done in the day.
Another issues is keeping our staff happy. Staffing is an issue for the majority of equestrian businesses these days. The more we can do to make the experience more enjoyable and less physically demanding is going to be in our intersts as employers in terms of retaining staff.
Why not consider dropping the brush and replace it with an all electric Ego LB6000E Blower. Open Equine has access to these via our partner suppliers and there’s great rates on a range of different models and battery packs. Your yard will never have looked cleaner and you’ll save a fortune on replacing those brushes!
