The Australia Sports Turf Management Association (ASTMA) Trade Convention 2025 was a terrific event!
Held over three days in June in Sydney, this year's convention confirmed what we've seen online: the demand for innovative turf and root management tools is growing. Our Technical Director, Ben Inkster, and Victor were on the ground, connecting with industry leaders to showcase the BA200X ALLSAW Turf and Wood Blade applications.
A Buzzing Booth & Viral Impact
Our booth at ASTMA was a hub of activity, and it became obvious that recent social media success had created a decent pre-show buzz. Many visitors had already seen our viral videos, many having been directed to our booth to ask about ALLSAW's unique capabilities. The timing couldn't have been better, resulting in some positive first impressions.
Attendees of the event represented a diverse cross-section of the industry, including:
Golf Course Grounds Keepers
Sporting Field & Stadium Turf Managers
Turf Installers & Suppliers
Local Council Grounds Care Representatives
Tertiary Education Institutions
Targeted Applications: BA200X Outdoor Grounds Care
The ASTMA convention confirmed the core applications where the BA200X ALLSAW is a game-changer.
Golf Courses: Tackling Roots & Turf Installs
For most golf courses, the BA200X was a clear winner. They immediately understood its value in managing tree roots and facilitating turf installation – common pain points that often plague greens. The ability to handle both turf and tree roots significantly enhances the value proposition.
Turf Installers: The Obvious Choice
For turf installers, the BA200X ALLSAW is a "no-brainer." Many have struggled with knives and machetes before resorting to expensive, cumbersome demolition saws. The BA200X ALLSAW offers a superior alternative for this application.
Looking Ahead: A Big Opportunity
The enthusiasm and interest from attendees at ASTMA 2025 was encouraging. We’re confident that the BA200X ALLSAW is poised for success as the preferred tool for professionals across Australia and beyond. We‘re thrilled to offer a solution to the turf sector that makes the work easier, cleaner and more efficient. Learn more about the BA200X here.
