Greenworks Cohosts Sustainable Landscaping Education Event
Greenworks Commercial, a provider of lithium-ion battery-operated power equipment, and Community Landscape Services, a Sperber Co., recently hosted a “Let’s Go Green Together” event to showcase how battery-operated products can help increase sustainability and reduce emissions.
The exclusive event included several community leaders, developers, property managers, and school board directors within the D.C. Metro area, allowing guests to experience Greenworks’ most innovative, world-class battery-powered equipment and learn about the importance of this equipment for local homeowner associations (HOAs).
The event included education on the current state of regulations concerning gas-powered equipment. With gas-operated landscaping equipment producing significant amounts of pollutants impacting the environment and humanity, battery-operated landscaping equipment creates an alternate, cleaner option for beautifying neighborhoods and abiding by HOA requirements.
As the push for sustainability is moving rapidly throughout different regions of the U.S., the need for zero emissions is a significant topic of discussion. As an example, the California Legislature’s passing of a requirement that all new landscaping equipment sold in the state to be emissions-free, beginning January 1, 2024, has prompted several other states, like New York to consider similar laws.
With expansion from China to the U.S., Greenworks has transformed landscaping equipment by embedding ‘Intelligent Power’ in nearly every product, allowing equipment to run faster, stronger, and longer with zero emissions. The company produces a full-line of 82 V battery-powered products, including, trimmers, blowers, chain saws, UTVs, pole saws, and batteries and chargers that the attendees of the “Let’s Go Green Together” event were able to see in person.
Some of Greenworks’ newest products include OptimusMC, a 20-ft.-long mobile charging trailer equipped with a 26 kWh built-in lithium-ion battery, and the powerful zero-turn mower, OptimusZ, now produced in the brand new manufacturing facility located in Morristown, Tenn.
