Le pétrole est entrain de tuer notre planète
Plus propre, plus silencieux et plus sûr
Chez EGO, nous avons vu l'avenir.Chez EGO, nous avons vu l’avenir.
Challenge 2025 est notre appel aux armes pour éduquer et responsabiliser les utilisateurs d’équipements électriques d’extérieur, qu’ils soient particuliers ou professionnels, afin qu’ils comprennent que le seul choix logique est celui de ceux à batterie et que nous pouvons laisser l’essence là où elle doit être, aux oubliettes.
Nous pensons qu’il est insensé que des outils et des équipements conçus pour améliorer notre cadre de vie produisent en même temps des émissions nocives et des nuisances sonores qui lui nuisent.
Le temps est venu de relever le défi et d’insister sur la nécessité du changement.
La technologie des batteries existe déjà aujourd’hui, il n’y a donc aucune excuse.
Le Rapport
Nous avons commandé des tests d'émissions et d'économie de carburant, mené des enquêtes auprès d'utilisateurs d'outils électriques domestiques et professionnels et soumis des demandes concernant la liberté d'information afin de produire notre Rapport sur l'impact environnemental complet des outils à essence.
Calculateur d’Émissions
Découvrez votre impact environnemental en fonction des outils de jardinage à essence que vous utilisez, grâce à notre calculateur d'émissions.
Pack Educatif
Parfait pour les enseignants et les parents, le pack éducatif Challenge 2025 permet aux enfants de comprendre l'importance d'une bonne qualité de l'air.

There`s no doubt that the majority of us want to do something to tackle the emissions that are polluting our atmosphere. We went to Birmingham`s Clean Air Zone to find out what local residents thought...

We wanted to find out how much more user-friendly battery-powered gardening tools are compared to petrol power, so we put them to the test.
As part of this experiment, we tested the noise and vibrations of a range of petrol and battery-powered tools, and the results speak for themselves.
Have you experienced any physical ailments following the use of petrol-powered tools? Let us know in the comments!

With over 89% of UK Councils using petrol-powered tools, it`s ironic that the tools designed to conserve and maintain our green spaces are actually damaging the environment they`re trying to enhance...
We have seen the future, and it`s cleaner, quieter, safer.
In our Report, we uncover the impact of using petrol-powered tools on the environment, and champion the switch to battery-powered tools - a cleaner, and greener, alternative.

Did you know that the emissions of the most widely used power tool exceeds that of a car?! 🚗
Our mission with #Challenge2025 is to educate and empower both domestic and professional outdoor power equipment users to see that the only logical choice when purchasing new gardening equipment is battery power. Power that is safer, greener, and cleaner.

In the #Challenge2025 Report, we uncovered that two thirds of users reported suffering from some kind of illness or injury associated with using petrol-powered gardening tools!
And, we`re not surprised.
In our latest research, we put the most popular petrol-powered tools to the test once again to uncover the true vibration and noise levels of petrol-powered tools, in comparison to their battery-powered counterparts.

Did you know that Cultivation Street Week kicks off on the 6th of March?
If you`re taking part in a community garden project, consider using battery-powered tools. Battery-powered tools offer users the same performance as petrol-powered alternatives, while being better for the environment and safer for those using them, with less hand, arm vibrations and noise pollution.
To learn more about making the switch to battery-powered tools, visit our website via the #LinkInBio.

Do you know the impact of your petrol-powered gardening tools?
.
In collaboration with @egopowerpluseu, we have created our Emissions Calculator - a simple-to-use calculator, to find out how much emissions your petrol-powered gardening tools produce.
.
All you need to do is enter some information about which tools you frequently use, and we`ll do the rest. The results might surprise you!
.

In collaboration with @EGOPowerPlusEU, we have created an education pack for use in classrooms to help pupils engage with the hidden dangers of petrol-powered tools.
Designed for Key Stage 2 pupils, the Education Pack includes climate change activities for primary schools which have been mapped against the KS2 Art, Science, and English curriculums, allowing pupils to learn about air pollution while contributing to their wider development.

We created The Report to better understand the impact petrol-powered tools were having on our environment, but also to find out how the public felt about that impact.
.
The results were clear, with 48% of respondents concerned about air pollution in their area. We also discovered that 84% agreed that everybody should help to reduce pollution.
.
And everybody can, by switching to battery-powered tools as a cleaner, greener, and safer alternative.

When you picture the future, what do you want it to look like?
.
Clean? Safe? Quiet?
.
We can have this, and one of the ways we can make it possible is by switching to battery power - a greener alternative to petrol.

The team from @EGOPowerPlusEU was honoured to be invited to Carolus Clusius College in Zwolle, Netherlands, to speak at their durability festival in the summer.
.
Our aim was to empower students to choose battery-power tools over petrol ones and, as part of the session, the students were asked to solve a ‘physics issue’ about Voltage, Amperage, and Autonomy.
.
We want to thank the college for having us, and we hope the students enjoyed it as much as we did.

Do you know how many emissions your petrol-power tool produces? 🤔 We can tell you!
.
Our Emissions Calculator takes the power tools you use, combining that figure with the amount of time you use those tools, to reveal how much carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide (CO2) your tools create weekly, monthly, and yearly.
.
What`s more, you will see a calculation of how much particulate is produced which can be inhaled and pose a great risk to our health.
.
You might be surprised at your results. Click the #LinkInBio to give it a try!

👉 89% of UK council tools are petrol powered,
👉 They use 600,000 litres of fuel each year,
👉 A petrol leaf blower gives out 11x more emissions than a Ford Fiesta!

Working in partnership with @EdenProjects, we have pledged to plant a tree for every @EGOPowerPlusEU power tool sold. We`ll then plant another one for every tool that is registered with an extended warranty 🌳🌳
.
That means that by buying battery-powered tools, not only are you helping to reduce emissions and noise pollution, but you are also helping to give back to the planet!

Of all those who took part in our survey (a mixture of home gardeners and professional power tool users), 66% reported that they had experienced injuries or health problems linked to the use of petrol-power tools. This can`t continue!
.
The noise and vibration that come with petrol-powered tools can lead to hearing loss, tingling sensations in the hands and arms, and `white finger`. Making the switch to battery power can make a significant difference to the health of the user, and that`s something we should all be fighting for.
