    Milwaukee targets outdoor power equipment market with more battery-powered solutions

    Milwaukee Tool is aiming to increase its position in the outdoor power equipment (OPE) market with new additions and updates to its cordless range.

    Rhys Adams, national sales manager OPE at Milwaukee Tool UK, commented: “Our mission in 2024 is to ensure our expansive range for cordless equipment proves its value to professionals in the OPE sector by providing a one-stop-shop for the solutions they need.

    “To help increase our share of the OPE market, we’re bringing a variety of new products, as well as enhancements to our existing product ranges, to help ensure users have the right solutions to complete the task at hand with ease and efficiency when compared to more traditional alternatives – something that has always been at the top of our agenda.”

    Products due for launch in 2024 include the dual battery self-propelled lawn mower, with a 46cm steel deck which utilises the company’s M18 FUEL battery technology.

    Rhys continued: “Our battery platform has been tried and tested in some of the world’s harshest and most demanding environments to ensure that no matter how challenging the job might be, or how difficult the terrain, our solutions are up to the task. The same technology, battery platform and power is put into our OPE range to support more and more professionals in the sector, and we’re excited to be able to provide the industry with even more solutions which we’ll be announcing very soon and throughout the remainder of the year.”

    Also utilising this technology is the company’s first dual battery backpack blower, able to provide a blowing force of 20.5N across the entire battery life. Available later in the year, it can hold up to four M18 FUEL batteries to extend the run time.
