Cresco 20SW
Pedestrian spreader designed for improved handling and regular seasonal use.
Built for Homeowner & Light Professional Use
The Cresco 20SW is designed for regular spreading where smaller area sizes, surface conditions, and material weight make handling and traction important. It performs reliably on uneven ground and during winter conditions where grip and balance affect consistency. It is not intended for continuous heavy-duty operation or large sites where higher capacity or tow-behind models are more appropriate.
- Choose settings based on material size and weight.
- Calibrate once per material — then run consistently.
- Thoroughly wash and dry after use to reduce corrosion risk.
Enhanced Handling
Pneumatic tyres improve grip, balance, and ride quality on uneven surfaces
Controlled Material Flow
Intelligently designed interchangeable slider plates provide consistent material flow with multiple different product types.
Durable Linkage System
Solid rod linkage provides more direct, reliable control than cable-based systems
Seasonal Versatility
Supports both fertiliser and winter materials without a need for another spreader
Build Quality & Components
Close-ups that show what matters.
Outlet shape adapts to different materials for even pattern distribution. Quick-change design allows field swaps without tools. Dedicated summer and winter sliders — opening geometry optimised for fertiliser and salt behaviour respectively.

Build Quality & Components
Close-ups that show what matters: wear points, control interfaces, and the parts that keep behaviour consistent.
Outlet shape adapts to different materials for even pattern distribution. Quick-change design allows field swaps without tools. Dedicated summer and winter sliders — opening geometry optimised for fertiliser and salt behaviour respectively.
Built-in outlet control that cuts off the spread to one side. Keeps fertiliser and salt where they're wanted along paths, beds, and boundaries — clean edges without wasted material or a second pass.
Improves traction, stability, and push comfort across varied surfaces.
Provides direct, positive action controlling the on/off. Unlike cable linkages, a solid rod doesn't stretch or seize, so the action stays consistent over the life of the machine.
Calibration & System Accuracy
Calibration shouldn't be a guessing game. Cresco uses a consistent approach across the range so operators and distributors aren't juggling different methods for each model.
- Eradicates striping and under/over application.
- Improves winter coverage consistency when safety depends on accurate application.
- Gives distributors a single source of guidance.
Best For
Regular Spreading Tasks on Green Areas
Suitable for multiple spreading tasks on small to medium sized areas where handling and balance is important.
Winter Maintenance on Footpaths
Improved grip supports controlled salt application and Ice melts in slippery conditions.
Users Stepping Up from Entry-Level Models
Designed for those needing better control without higher-capacity equipment.
