Grun Model SB7 Strawblower

The Grun model SB7 Strawblower is aerodynamically engineered so that the airflow through the machine follows the curved and funneled lines of the machine and never hits a right angle. This design allows the airflow to increase in velocity as it moves through the machine. The direct application of power and Grun’s more efficient aerodynamic design are why the Grun model SB7 Strawblower achieves a greater discharge range than competitive models in its class – even though some competitive models use the same engine.

Strawblowers

Strawblowers, Straw Blowers, Hay Blowers, Straw Mulchers or simply Mulchers are all the same equipment. All Strawblowers make it possible to achieve a 30-40% material savings and to achieve up to an 80% labor savings vs hand mulching straw. The key is to buy the Strawblower that is the best value for the money.

Strawblowers cost effectively mulch baled straw and disperse it on the ground as an evenly distributed blanket. The results save contractors both time and money by reducing & using labor and materials more efficiently. Strawblowers are a cost effective tool for job site erosion control compliance as mandated by federal EPA requirements. Mulched straw also provides insulation to newly planted seed.
