Könner & Söhnen® Expands Its Garden Equipment Line at the Cologne Hardware Show - Introducing the KS 98TMG-H Ride-On Mower and Advancing the Unified Battery System for Cordless Tools

Cologne, Germany — Könner & Söhnen®, a German brand of Dimax International GmbH, will present an expanded Garden Line at the EISENWARENMESSE – International Hardware Fair, showcasing company’s growing garden technique ecosystem and its strengthened portfolio of heavy-duty Garden Machinery. The updated lineup reflects years of R&D and a clear long-term strategy: to offer a complete, reliable, and efficient tool family that supports homeowners, landscapers, and professional groundskeepers across every garden task — from routine maintenance to large-area land management.

K&S Garden is built on a simple engineering philosophy: combine practical design, modern technology, and consistent ergonomics. The result is a broad tool range that now includes battery-powered equipment, electric machines, and fuel-driven models, giving users freedom to choose the optimal format for each task. From lawn care and trimming to hedge shaping, branch cutting, seasonal cleanup, and soil preparation, the portfolio covers the full cycle of garden work throughout the year.

Comfort and ease of operation remain central across all categories. Brushless motors in cordless tools offer improved efficiency and reduced weight; petrol lawnmowers with extended power and runtime are joining the product line to allow effective work on large yards, tough terrain, or overgrown grass; the electric lawnmowers are now offered in updated versions with refined cutting systems and higher durability; chainsaws, trimmers, cultivators, and blowers continue to build on K&S’s reputation for reliability. Across the board, each tool benefits from balanced handling, intuitive controls, and integrated protection systems that prevent overcharge, deep discharge, overheating, or short circuits.

A cornerstone of the expanding Garden Line is the unified battery system, which already powers more than fifty cordless tools and continues to grow. A single battery fits the entire range — from string trimmers and chainsaws to hedge trimmers, blowers, drills, and lawn mowers — reducing the total investment for users and simplifying daily workflow. High-capacity cells and fast charging ensure extended operation, while the system itself provides a practical alternative for households and professionals who are gradually shifting from fuel-powered equipment to quieter, cleaner cordless solutions.

Garden Machinery: Heavy-Duty Equipment for Large Areas and Demanding Work

Beyond handheld equipment, Könner & Söhnen® offers a complete Garden Machinery portfolio that serves users who maintain large territories and face intense workloads. The lineup includes log splitters, wood chippers, cultivators, and petrol-powered equipment for soil preparation and tree processing — machines built for torque, longevity, and operational safety.

All units in this category rely on proprietary K&S engines, reinforced chassis designs, and ISO-certified production standards. They are engineered to withstand continuous use, process hardwood materials, and operate reliably in professional or semi-professional environments.

KS 98TMG-H Ride-On Mower: Extending the Machinery Line

A key premiere at the Cologne exhibition is the KS 98TMG-H ride-on mower, which significantly expands the mechanical equipment range. Designed for properties from 5,000 to 15,000 m², the tractor combines high cutting performance, stable driving characteristics, and user-oriented functional details.

It is powered by a 452 cc / 9.2 kW (12.5 hp) engine and equipped with a pioneering HYDRO-GEAR® hydrostatic transmission that ensures smooth, continuous speed adjustment. The 98 cm twin-blade deck offers seven cutting height positions, while the 245-liter collector supports fast and efficient mowing on large areas. Additional features such as electromagnetic blade activation, LED headlights, and a deck wash port increase convenience in everyday operation. Low-pressure tires and stable chassis geometry allow improved maneuverability even in tight or uneven spaces.

A Complete, Cross-Category Ecosystem

With the unified battery platform, upgraded electric and petrol lawn mowers, established petrol and electric equipment (chainsaws, trimmers, cultivators, hedge trimmers, blowers), and the reinforced range of Garden Machinery culminating in the KS 98TMG-H, Könner & Söhnen® now offers a comprehensive ecosystem that covers all levels of garden maintenance — from lightweight cordless tools to heavy-duty equipment for large-area care.

Across the portfolio, users benefit from proprietary engines, multi-stage quality control, individual serial numbering for full traceability, ISO-certified production, multilingual support, wide network of local service offices and dealer-ready marketing and training materials.
