Cresco 1

Handheld spreader for fast, targeted application in small areas

Built for Close-Range Spreading
The Cresco 1 is designed for close-range spreading in areas where wheeled or body-mounted equipment is impractical. It performs best with fine, dry, free-flowing materials and short application durations. It is not intended for uniform coverage across larger areas or for repeated high-volume spreading tasks.
- Fine, dry materials provide the most predictable throw pattern.
- Hand cranking motion influences distribution.
- Refill little and often to optimise results.
Targeted Material Placement
Short-range throw supports precise application near entrances and edges
Integrated Scoop Hopper
Allows direct filling from bags or containers without additional tools
Ergonomic Handling
Moulded grip and armrest reduce fatigue during repeated short tasks
Lightweight Construction
Easy to carry and deploy across multiple locations
Build Quality & Components
Close-ups that show what matters.

Allows direct filling from bags or containers, reducing handling time between applications.

Build Quality & Components
Close-ups that show what matters: wear points, control interfaces, and the parts that keep behaviour consistent.
Calibration & System Accuracy
Handheld spreading depends on consistent cranking motion and material condition. Material behaviour varies by granule size and moisture content. Familiarisation and calibration are recommended before first use.
- Material behaviour varies - granule size, density, and moisture affect how material flows through the spreader.
- Correct calibration helps avoid over and under application, missed coverage, and material loss.
Best For
Building Entrances and Doorways
Ideal for fast salt or ice-melt application where wheeled access is limited.
Small Lawn Repairs and Patch Seeding
Suitable for controlled fertiliser or seed placement in confined areas.
Mobile Maintenance Teams
Useful as a supplementary tool alongside larger spreaders.
