Many gardeners and small-scale farmers would like to have a single tool for sawing, cutting and digging. A unique tool from Swedish company Mojave Grönt makes this possible, using steel from Alleima and taking inspiration from Japan.
“We work in farming and gardening and have identified tasks that could be made more efficient by developing tools and equipment for small scale farming and gardening,” says Anja Hellström at Mojave Grönt. She explains why they chose the Alleima® 12C27 steel.
“It’s stainless steel, which is important in gardening, and it’s made from recycled material,” she says. “We want to make products using sustainable production methods and materials. We also believe in conscious and sustainable consumption. Being a small company allows us to communicate directly with end users and encourage consumers’ understanding of the value of products, and why it’s important to choose responsibly manufactured materials,” continues Hellström.
For Alleima® 12C27, the recycled steel content is already substantial at 90%. However, we aim to further boost the recycled steel percentage, says Mikael Silver, Sustainability Manager, “Strip Division, Alleima.
The Hori Hori garden tool from Mojave Grönt is crafted for effortless weeding for the gardener. The tool excels at transplanting, digging, and cutting. Its dual-edge blade is sharp and cuts effortlessly through soil, roots and weeds. The stainless steel of the tool combines strength and finesse in one elegant design. ®
