MANUFACTURER Toro has launched a new range of electric tools – combining its “outdoor power equipment expertise with pioneering battery technology”.
Aimed at arborists, landscapers, and a wide range of professionals, the Revolution Series delivers a more sustainable product with like-for-like performance with equivalent petrol or diesel machines. The series includes hedge trimmers and leaf blowers.
With other significant benefits to the end user – including less direct exposure to carbon dioxide emissions and reduced noise and vibration – Toro has also launched a campaign promoting the benefits of switching to battery-powered outdoor equipment, called ‘Lead the Charge’.

Anthony Nadalin, director of marketing at the Toro Company, said: “As one of the world’s leading manufacturers, we have a responsibility to drive decarbonisation in outdoor power equipment.
“For Toro, this means leading the charge from the front. We are a passionate advocate for this change and through our extensive range of electric-powered equipment, our focus is to meet the growing demands of outdoor maintenance professionals.”
Toro’s ‘Lead the Charge’ campaign also helps highlight the savings that can be made by switching to all-electric OPE, as well as providing clear and accurate information about pricing and performance.
Lead the Charge aims to help owners and operators of commercial OPE to understand exactly what all-electric OPE can now achieve in terms of performance, sustainability and cost savings.
“By presenting all the information in a factual and user-friendly way, we can help landscaping professionals and municipal authorities to make truly informed decisions,” added Anthony. “Our customers have trusted us for over 100 years and our latest campaign, Lead the Charge, is about Toro repaying that trust by giving them the confidence to transition to cleaner, more cost-effective outdoor power equipment.”
