Celebrating 60 years of Flymo
This year marks an incredible milestone for Flymo as we celebrate turning 60! Since the iconic hover mower glided into gardens across the UK in 1965; Flymo has become a much-loved brand for garden owners.
Flymo - By your side for 60 years
Back in 1965, Swedish inventor Karl Dahlman revolutionised the way we mow our lawns, inspired by hovercraft, he didn’t just reinvent the wheel, he removed them completely. Unlike the heavy rotary mowers of the time, Flymo’s hover mowers glide on a cushion of air, making them lightweight and easy to use.
From the moment Flymo launched their first hover mower, it was clear this was no ordinary mower. For generations, Flymo has been caring for lawns on a mission to make garden care easy and dare we say…fun!?
Your Flymo story brought to life
To mark 60 years of innovation, we’re bringing the nostalgia to life.
Flymo isn’t just about lawnmowers; it’s about memories. For many, Flymo represents family tradition, afternoons spent in the garden, the quick garden tidy before the big family BBQ, and that satisfying buzz as the mower glides effortlessly across the grass. We’re proud to bring that nostalgic feeling back as we celebrate six decades of keeping lawns lush.
To celebrate 60 years of great garden living, we launched a special campaign, to find the nations oldest Flymo! With entries fromm across the country, we can confirm we found the oldest working Flymo, which was, infact over 55 years old!
As we continue to celebrate 6 decades of great garden living, stay tuned to find out more about our competition results and delve further into the history of our iconic gardening brand...
