PITCH & LINE MARKERS
“In this business, it’s all about price
per pitch - and since the TLM can
initial mark a full-size football
pitch in just 20 minutes, with one
operator, compared to (in Parkway’s
case) around 2/2.5 hours manually
with two operators, the savings are
evident. Also, an eight-lane running
track that used to take two of my
guys a full day, at least, can now be
completed by one person in only 2.5
hours.”
Return on investment was obviously
also important to Adur & Worthing
Councils’ Grounds Maintenance
Supervisor, Steve Grant. “With
around 72 regular line marking
operations within our remit, the
potential for savings – in terms of
time alone - are enormous. And
our return on the investment will
only improve when our work with
the local secondary schools and
colleges, where there is a wide
variety of sports including rounders,
is also taken into account.”
