MarMac TunnelVac

Marshall Machinery is proud to support the berry industry through the design and manufacture of purpose-built equipment developed specifically for Australian growing conditions. Our focus is on creating practical solutions where suitable commercial equipment is not available.

​

Prunings left in place under a tunnel can create trip hazards for workers, and growing medium can turn the ground sponge like, both of which hinder day-to-day operations. While manual removal is possible, it is a slow and inefficient solution to remove organic matter from under tunnels.​

 

Recognising the lack of a suitable narrow-row throw mulcher to solve this problem, Marshall Machinery developed the MARMAC TunnelVac.Specifically designed for tunnel applications, the TunnelVac collects organic matter from between the rows and efficiently throws it into a trailing trailer for removal, helping growers maintain safer, cleaner, and more productive tunnel environments.

TunnelVac Reviews:

Our mulcher works really well for us and does a good job of cleaning up the tunnels. We’ve had no major issues with it, and it does exactly what we were told it would do. We’re very happy with it and definitely feel it was money well spent.
