Massive Labor Savings & Efficiency
The Finn 5-Series dramatically reduces the manual labor needed to spread mulch or compost across large or difficult terrain. What would take an entire crew hours with wheelbarrows and rakes can often be completed by 1–2 operators using the blower and remote-controlled hose. This reduction in labor not only cuts payroll costs but also allows contractors to bid more competitively and complete more jobs per season. On commercial jobs, municipalities, and highway projects, this labor advantage becomes a huge financial edge.
Precision Application with Consistent Coverage
Unlike manual spreading, which often leads to uneven depths, bare spots, or wasted material, the BB5 delivers mulch exactly where it's needed with a controlled, consistent layer. The operator can easily adjust feed speed and blower pressure to match the material and jobsite conditions. This precision helps ensure better weed suppression, moisture retention, and aesthetic appeal for customers. It also reduces wasted material, which directly saves on supply costs.
Reach Difficult & Sensitive Areas Safely
With its long hose reach (typically 150 to 200 feet), the BB5 allows operators to apply mulch on steep slopes, tight spaces, around landscaping features, or in sensitive environments where heavy equipment can’t safely access. Instead of driving machinery across fragile terrain, the blower stays parked while the hose delivers the material exactly where it's needed. This greatly reduces property damage, erosion risks, and liability concerns on complex sites like embankments, retention ponds, and urban green spaces.
