MagGrow is now MagrowTec

Today, in our world, magnetic technologies are now universally used to charge, fuel & feed the planet. From Tesla Electric cars, wind turbines to MRI machines in the medical space.

 In this rapidly changing world, we too are changing & evolving. 

At the heart of this evolution lies our unrelenting pursuit of science-led, technology developments. To mark this evolution we thought it only fitting to reinforce this in our name & identity.

MagGrow is now

A world-class science-based technology brand that is a pioneer in spraying innovation. A pioneer in making more of less. As leaders in the industry, we speak with bravery, certainty, and clarity, bringing innovative thinking, understanding & commitment, while turning problems into opportunities.

We dare to challenge the way things are to reimagine and reinvent the way things could be. We always back up our ideas with evidence-based proof.

We live in an amazing world. A world filled with Nature’s bounty. And yet we struggle to answer a question that has plagued humankind since time began:

HOW CAN OUR TINY EARTH PROVIDE ENOUGH FOR ALL?

According to the UN, the world will need the same amount of food in the next 40 years than the last 10,000 years combined.

At Magrowtec our mission is to find better spraying solutions for producing more; while wasting less.

More food, less chemicals.
More crops, less damage.
More profit, less waste.
In short, more solution, less problem.

Through our technology, we have only started pushing the boundaries of doing more, with less.

Every day we dream of finding new ways to solve that riddle. New ways to create more of that bountiful plenty while making sense for everyone.

For the farmers who grow the food.
For the people who eat it. 
And for the land that gives it life.

We have devoted ourselves to a scienced-based technological solution to solving this riddle.

Our technology, when applied to spraying, is as life-changing as it is game-changing.

MagGrow – using science to build better agriculture

 

We’re thrilled to open the doors of our state-of-the-art MagGrow Agricultural Research Centre for the first time in this video. MARC, as we call it, is located in Cirencester, in the UK, and houses our Crop Science and applied Research teams.

This Research Centre supports two areas of activity, one applied research relating to field trials and crop science, the other industrial research directed at applied science and engineering, for strengthening the foundations of corporate technologies and new areas of research activity aligned to MagGrow’s strategic plan.

At MagGrow, our entrepreneurial vision and commitment to establishing strong scientific foundations for this technology, through a strategically defined research program, is core to our corporate strategy.

The consequence of this strategy is continuous improvement in products, product range, and services, all of which make for better customer support, confidence, and satisfaction.

Moreover, it also aligns with meeting food security, environmental protection, and socially related challenges.

MagGrow Expands Footprint in Australia and New Zealand

MagGrow is delighted to announce the addition of David McGrath as regional business development manager with the aim to support agricultural partnerships and production in Australia and New Zealand.

McGrath is an experienced senior manager with more than a decade of experience in agricultural industries where he’s held a wide range of roles, from business development and sales, to research and development. He brings a strong track record developing successful businesses, managing high-performing teams, and facilitating knowledge transfers that have resulted in improved commercial sales and revenues streams.

David is a trusted advisor among government, business and agricultural circles in Australia and New Zealand, thanks to his success developing, deploying and optimizing systems to support growers across the continent and globally.

Supporting David to create new partnerships and improve sustainability practices, while increasing crop profitability, through the adoption of MagGrow’s spray technology in Australia and New Zealand, is Gillian Byrne.

Gillian Byrne launched MagGrow in Australia and New Zealand last year. Gillian is responsible for sales development, working directly with MagGrow’s dealer partners and managing sales opportunities in Queensland, New South Wales, Northern Territory and New Zealand.

With concern over critical issues such as spray drift and other threats that have the potential for catastrophic crop damage, MagGrow’s technology gives growers across Australia and New Zealand a highly effective tool to support their efforts – minimizing spray drift, improving profitability, and generally making farmers lives easier.

MagGrow’s magnetic-assist technology significantly reduces waste, improves sustainability practices, and delivers important plant protection products where they matter the most. Using the MagGrow boom kit system growers have reduced spraying drift by up to 70% and improved coverage by up to 40% versus conventional spraying methods.
