History
Ninety years ago our founder, Knud Jacobsen, demonstrated his Four Acre Mower, the first machine equipped with a motor specifically tailored to power mower components. Today, our company remains committed to designing, building and delivering industry-leading turf maintenance equipment. This singular focus led to the legendary quality of cut for which Jacobsen® is known throughout the world.
Our unrivaled experience has also resulted in the industry’s first:
- riding greens mower
- lightweight fairway mower
- turf groomer
- electric riding greens mower
- electric walking greens mower
- magnetic bedknife
- biodegradable hydraulic fluid (factory-filled)
Further enhancing the operation, maintenance and ownership of Jacobsen equipment, we have expanded the capabilities of our mowers, including: all-electric and hybrid power technologies, cutting diameter, mower weight, turning capabilities, maintenance time and quality of cut.
Thanks to our unrivaled understanding of turf maintenance, Jacobsen equipment is trusted to maintain some of the world’s most prestigious and sacred areas, such as royal palace lawns, football gridirons, legendary golf courses, cemeteries and monuments, including the White House. As we look to the future of our industry, Jacobsen will continue to build upon our legendary quality of cut through Quality, Innovation and Green Initiatives.
