Streuth Gardening Tools and Equipment

Hello Hello Plant Farms have introduced their own range of tools and gardening products and have trademarked them as ‘Streuth’

How this came about is that Chris noted that tools of all types have become very cheap in the last few years but often you buy a tool for just a few dollars and go to do a job with it, it will break within a few minutes.

Chris wondered if it was possible to import tools that were strong and durable yet cheap.

He went to China and obtained samples from hundreds of suppliers and brought them back and gave them to the staff in his production nursery. Most tools were the wrong shape, some of the sprayers didn’t pump, others didn’t spray and some of the gloves wore out in no time but every so often we found gloves, sprayers or tools that really worked and were durable.

The good items were so far and few between that we found our staff tended to say ‘Strueth’ this sprayer is terrific or ‘Strueth’ these secateurs really work! so we named our brand ‘Strueth’.

One thing that helped us is that when we found a good product from one manufacturer we would find that all or most of their products were good. You might ask why would manufacturers produce tools that are not durable or don’t work.

When Chris has been at the busy trade fairs and has sat and listened in to buyers from big chains make huge purchases they simply look at the tool and buy on price, there is no testing or discussion of the quality of the tool.
