Living Turf® partners with Rain Bird® to create a winning formula for Australian golf courses

Rain Bird Corporation - Golf Division proudly announces the appointment of Living Turf as the primary distribution partner for the full range
of Rain Bird Golf irrigation products across Australia. 

Both Living Turf and Rain Bird are long-standing and highly reputable brands within the golf industry and together they recognise that agronomy and irrigation are simply inseparable.  

Living Turf already distributes a range of industry-recognised brands for professional turf managers including Bayer, Syngenta and MatchPlay®, whilst also providing innovative analysis, turf pathology and online climate analysis systems through My-Results®  and My-Climate®. 

Now, with the inclusion of Rain Bird irrigation products, the partnership with Living Turf creates a winning formula that will further strengthen and deliver the most extensive range of premier turf and irrigation products and services to the Australian golf industry. 

Rob Cooper, Managing Director at Living Turf, stated: “The inclusion of Rain Bird irrigation products naturally compliments our existing range of turf management products and services. Combining agronomic management with irrigation systems just makes sense – it’s a perfect partnership”. 

Rob Nadebaum, General Manager of Rain Bird Australia also expressed Rain Bird’s excitement with the new distribution partnership adding: “We’re proud to team-up with Living Turf. Their reach, coupled with their expertise, will make Rain Bird products more accessible and even more valuable to more golf courses across Australia.”
