Further investment in unique technology for Rolawn

Rolawn enhances its patented Profresh® system and adds additional capacity

Rolawn – the growers of Britain’s finest turf – has spent this past winter extending their Profresh facilities. The patented and unique system which draws on a number of interacting processes to extend turf shelf-life has proved itself to be very successful and subsequently made it extremely popular. As a result investment has gone into refining the complex process further and increasing the system capacity.

news - Rolawn enhances Profresh

By adding a third Profresh system, capacity is increased by 75%, this will improve the consistency of turf by enabling more turf to be processed in a shorter time frame. Further investment has also been made in holding and loading facilities ensuring the turf is in prime condition at the point where it is loaded on to vehicles. This is another plus point aiding both the effectiveness and consistency of the turf and its keeping qualities.

Rolawn’s Sales and Marketing Director, Jonathan Hill comments: “Profresh is revolutionising Rolawn’s turf sales in the UK. Healthy, high quality, virile, fast rooting Medallion turf treated with Profresh is of the same outstanding market leading quality many days after harvesting as it was on the day of delivery. The salient fact is it lasts longer, fresh in the roll in prime condition, giving a significantly increased sales window in which to sell and lay Medallion turf in optimum condition. Our stockist network love it!’

Important update: Temporary 6.5% surcharge effective 7 April 

At Rolawn, we are committed to maintaining the high standards of quality and service our customers expect, so we want to be open with our customers about a change that will affect pricing from Tuesday 7th April. 

This decision has been taken in response to disruption to energy supplies, which has led to significant increases in wholesale prices, affecting not only fuel and fertiliser but also costs throughout our wider supply chain. As a business that relies heavily on fuel for both transport and operations, these sustained cost pressures have become increasingly difficult to absorb.  

While we have worked hard to mitigate the impact, the scale and pace of recent price increases have now exceeded what we can sustain internally, and we therefore need to recover a proportion of these externally driven increases. 

From Tuesday 7th April, a temporary 6.5% surcharge will apply to all products.  

We know that any increase in price is frustrating, particularly at a time when many businesses and households are already feeling under pressure. That is why we want to be clear that this is not a decision we have made lightly, and not one we wanted to make. It has been introduced solely to help offset unavoidable cost inflation and allow us to continue delivering the quality, reliability and service standards associated with Rolawn. 

We will continue to monitor market conditions closely and will review this surcharge as soon as circumstances allow, providing reasonable notice of any changes. We recognise that any price increase is unwelcome, but this step is necessary to ensure the continuity and reliability of our operations during a period of ongoing uncertainty. 

We remain committed to providing the quality, reliability and service standards you expect from Rolawn, and we truly appreciate your understanding and continued support. 

If you have any questions, please contact our customer support team who will be happy to help.
