Lemar Design Philosophy

Here at Lemar we continue to put a great deal of effort into producing equipment that is user-friendly and simple. Simplicity is something that we strive for, and this design approach has benefited customers for years. Over the years we have noticed that simple equipment requires a far more complex design. This investment into design has been paying off for our customers, with a user-friendly, efficient, and durable product, that has been proven in some of the toughest digging conditions. Here at Lemar we believe in the importance of ongoing design.


Here are the facts:
You be the judge!

Realistic Digging Costs:
$15.00/Tree

(All figures have been calculated for a 36” ball size. We know that these costs will vary greatly from region to region, so replace these costs with your own to accurately calculate how the “Lemar Advantage” could work for you. This cost does not include baskets, burlap, twine, or staples.)

The Lemar Advantage:
20% Increase In Productivity

(Our customers have told us that their productivity has increased from 20% to 40%.)

Cost Savings/Tree:
$3.00/Tree

Cost Difference Over 2,500 Trees: $7,500.00

"Do not worry then, saying, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What will we wear for clothing?' "For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
Matt 6: 31-34 NASB


Efficiency

In a market where fertilizer, fuel, and labor are on the rise, those in the Green Industry need to position themselves as efficiently as possible to remain competitive. Several customers have increased their production significantly after switching to our tree digging
equipment. We have consistently heard production rates of 20% to 40% over their previous tree digging equipment. Lemar has been helping companies streamline their harvesting operations, thus helping them become more profitable and secure in today’s market.

Lemar is cutting to the root of unneeded cost with these labor saving features:

Quality

With a smorgasbord of options to choose from in the retail nursery industry, those growers who have a clean and presentable package rise to the top. Consistently producing a very presentable package is yet another reason that Lemar customers are not looking back. We thrive on giving our customers an edge with quality equipment that produces a quality finished product.

Longevity

We work very hard at continually improving our equipment so our customers receive the best value for their hard earned dollars. Being committed to customer success raises the importance of our equipment’s lifespan. We have spades still in operation today that have dug over 250,000 trees. We also have reasonably priced parts to keep your equipment in production with minimal maintenance costs.

Reliability

With a limited window to harvest your stock, downtime can be devastating. When you know that you have reliable equipment that performs well in the heat of production, you can have peace of mind. Not only do we produce equipment that performs well under
pressure, but we stand behind our customers with a parts and service team that understands how crucial it is to keep them running.

Let the Lemar advantage work for you!
