Househam welcomes Hong Kong Students

On Tuesday 11th July we welcomed 30 students from Hong Kong to Househam HQ for a factory tour.

The students came from VTC Hong Kong as part of an exchange programme with Lincoln UTC.

After a brief introduction to our history and product, we took the students through our factory’s different areas, including our assembly workshops and warehouse facility. The

y also had the opportunity to have a look at two of our machines in detail and see them in action.

The students enjoyed seeing equipment which is used in arable farming as the industry does not exist in Hong Kong. Our method of manufacture was also very different from what they have previously experienced.

Our doors are always open to anyone who wants to learn more about how

our sprayers are manufactured; if you would like a visit, please get in touch with us at info@househamsprayers.com

Celebrating 20 Years of the Air-Ride!

Househam’s Air-Ride is celebrating its 20th anniversary, after initial production began back in March 2002.

Since the late 1980s, Househam has been designing and manufacturing machines to help farmers profit from precision-sprayed, healthier crops. Over this period, the trust in our cutting-edge British-engineered sprayers has rewarded farmers and their employees many times over. We understand the challenges farmers, land managers, estate managers, contractors and workers face in growing yields with growing input costs. Every year we’ve developed and improved our machines based on feedback from you, our customers and 2023 will be no exception.

Shipped worldwide, the Air-Ride is Househam Sprayers’ best-selling product, which shows just how far the machine has come in the last 20 years. Owners still see the Air-Ride, and its big brother the Harrier, as the solution to reducing costs and waste as well as improving sustainable farming methods, with the added benefit of downloadable data for precise farming. The advanced technology has kept pace with the demands and challenges of modern farming, with each upgrade benefitting farmers and their workers.

The latest model offers a range of features including ground clearance up to 1.7m and track width up to 3.7m which significantly reduces the chance of crop damage, while the under 7m turning circle ensures exceptional manoeuvrability. Most recently the cab has been upgraded to a state-of-the-art X10 cab from Claas that brings in new levels of refinement and operator comfort.

Every machine is tailor made to suit your land, crop regime and climate so that you and your team can deal with everything nature has to throw at you! Options include the Househam Intelligent Transmission System (HITS), NavGuide Auto Section Control, Spray Pilot Auto Steer, Househam Boom Levelling, Individual Nozzle Control (INC), Automatic Nozzle Select (ANS) and turn compensation. There is also a choice of tank sizes (from 3,000l up to 6,000l) and boom widths (from 24m up to 36m).

Whatever your requirement, the 2023 technology in the Air-Ride will equip your farm for the future. As a Househam customer, you will also have over 20 years of knowledge and experience at your fingertips and the added peace of mind that our expert team are only a phone call away.

Pre-owned Air-Ride sprayers like this one are also available to buy. Each pre-owned machine goes through a comprehensive service and inspection and also comes with a pre-owned approved warranty.
