Spreaders often travel all over the world before they get to you. We want to reduce our carbon footprint and yours, so our newly designed spreaders are shipped in parts. This allows us to ship five times as many spreaders in a container than we would if we were to ship them fully assembled. Having our spreaders assembled in the UK allows us to focus on quality while reducing some of our footprint on the planet.
Calibration Centre
Spreader Calibration Analysis
If you’ve ever manually calibrated a spreader, then you know it’s a hassle. With Cresco’s Calibration Centre, we’ve done a lot of the hard work for you, and as ever, we’re here to share our knowledge with you.
Whether you’re spreading salt of fertilizer, it’s important you spread the right amount of product across a given area, but this isn’t always simple. As fertilizers and salts vary greatly in size, weight, and shape, they all spread differently, meaning your spreader settings need to be set for the specific product you’re using.
Spreader Calibration Analysis
Normally, this means lost time as you trial different settings trying to find the right one for your product. However, we’ve made it our mission to simplify spreaders, and to help us do this, we’ve designed our very own testing system.
This means we can quickly test the best settings for the major products and share them with you in our data vault.

Why is Spreader Calibration Important?
Fertilizer spreading is all about precision, and to help you achieve this, we developed the Slide System Technology.
While this technology gives you greater control over how much and how accurately you spread fertilizer, a vital link was still missing. How do you know exactly how much fertilizer you’re spreading in order to adjust your output accordingly? If you just use visual cues to gauge your output, then you risk spreading too much fertilizer and killing your grass, or too little product, meaning your spreading is ineffective. One option you’ve got is to run a series of tests, measuring how much fertilizer you spread over a certain area, but this can be extremely hard to judge, and can only lead to an estimate.
Calibration needs to be done in a controlled setting in order to get the best results and to make sure this happens, we’ve invested in our testing capabilities, so you don’t have to worry about trial and error.
We’ve been working with spreaders since the 1970s and we’ve learned a lot in those years. With updated technology, a brand new design, and logistics that work for European distributors, your business doesn’t have to compromise when it comes to spreaders anymore.
