From Europe to Australia: How Turf Growers Are Winning the Race Against Time
When Besenthal Rollrasen, one of Germany’s leading turf growers, set out to solve the challenge of post-harvest turf deterioration, they turned to a technology that was about to transform their operations: vacuum cooling.
Their goal was simple yet ambitious — to deliver turf that stayed fresher for longer, travelled better, and delighted customers days after harvest. The results were immediate.
By adopting vacuum cooling technology, Besenthal was able to dramatically extend the shelf life of their turf, reduce waste, and offer greater flexibility to their customers.
With decades of engineering expertise and partnerships with leading technology innovators like Weber Cooling, Heuch Cooling Solutions ensures Australian turf growers have access to world-class solutions — right here, right now.
