“We are very excited to introduce Hydrowick to the Swedish market” comments ÅhusTurf’s Henrik Albäck. “After we took part in an installation with Djuke’s professional team at Porters Park, we quickly realised the efficiency of Hydrowick and this answered any questions we still had. In combination with our hybrid turf offering, we believe Hydrowick is the product that could help Swedish golf clubs reach their full potential.”

Hydrowick offers venues an innovative, long-lasting drainage system which efficiently manages water while maintaining optimal playing conditions. Its unique, patented design ‘wicks’ moisture and passes it through an open stainless steel core to channel and disperse excess water that is inaccessible by conventional drainage systems. Compared to other drainage systems, Hydrowick installation is less invasive, with most surfaces back in play as little as 24 hours later.
