RECO has finalised an agreement with Canadian manufacturer Schulte that gives it the sole rights to import and distribute the company's range of specialised machines in the UK. The agreement took effect from May 1 and Reco is already off to a good start, having achieved several sales in the UK in the first few weeks of the new arrangement.
    The Schulte range of machinery encompasses rotary cutters, rock removal equipment and snow blowers. Although Reco will focus predominantly on rotary cutters for the UK market, the other machines will also be available here.
    Schulte has been manufacturing rotary cutters since the 1980s and has achieved significant success across the globe. The company's machines are well designed and contain many innovations combined with strength and performance ahead of their rivals. The rotary cutter range starts at 1.8m and extends out to include the world’s largest rotary cutter with a width in excess of 12m.
    The range of rotary cutters is very versatile and designed to be used in roadside maintenance, brush cutting and shredding crop residue. The larger machines are aimed at reducing time in the field for large operators, minimising fuel costs and aiding with conservation management.
    Schulte chief executive Kevin Dow said his company's mission was to deliver products worldwide with quality, value, service and trust.
    "We are completely convinced that through this new partnership, Reco will extend this commitment to all Schulte customers throughout the UK," he said. "We are greatly looking forward to working with Reco to increase the recognition of the Schulte brand."
    Reco managing director John Walls added that he was pleased to be working with such a strong manufacturing partner building and delivering quality machines into the UK market.
    "The addition of the Schulte range will complement our current machinery ranges in both the agricultural and groundscare markets," he said.
