For over 100 years these now joined companies from the U.K. have been making a range of tools which have basically stood the test of time both in design and durability, so much so that Chillington Tools are the worlds leading Hoe manufacturer.
Who are they? and what are they? you ask. Well in nearly every country of the world these tools are used for agriculture and gardening work, whereas just a few countries like Ireland for some reason ended up using our traditional garden fork and garden spade for doing the same work. How we came to not use hoes (along with just a few other countries) is not quite clear, maybe it was because we became mechanised and for a period or say 40 years lost interest in growing our own food.
In countries where a Farmers business or a families only food supply depends on the quality of their hand tools, these people choose a brand which is world famous and passed down from generation to generation and that brand is the "Crocodile" brand which is the brand of genuine Chillington and Martindale tools and stamped into and every one of them at time of manufacture to guarantee to these users that the tool they have purchased is genuine and will do the job.
Now because of the huge demand in Organically produced food and the recent "grow your own" resurgence, Chillington and Martindale tools have also been demanded by the Organic producers and so much so that quite a few of these Organic producers have now made these tools available to the Irish gardening and vegetable growing public.
So if you go to www.chillingtonhoes.com you will see the full range of these tools and a "stockist" in your area where you can purchase "genuine" Chillington Hoes and "genuine" Martindale products.
If Organic growers use these tools then that's an endorsement in itself, but if you want a robust made to last product and of course want to spend your hard earned cash wisely then please go to one of our stockists and see for yourself, and we promise you wont be disappointed in what we regard as a quality ecological tool which we think is very needed in this "throw away" world.
