Turf and irrigation consultancy Jebsen & Jessen Technology has been awarded a five-year contract to supply equipment, resources and expertise for the newly renovated 18-hole course at The Singapore Island Country Club.
Jebsen & Jessen will partner with Troon International, Toro, and Eng Swee Thye Engineering to deliver comprehensive maintenance and improvement of the The Island Course, including the Rotunda practice putting greens at the club’s Island location.
This multi-partner, integrated approach will provide the latest turf maintenance equipment and irrigation systems, and expertise in golf course management and maintenance services.
The newly redesigned The Island Course, expertly crafted by the renowned golf course design company Nelson & Haworth, stays true to its roots of 1920s-1930s-style golf courses, while being refined to elevate the playing experience. The addition of sand capping, a modern irrigation system, along with improved grass species, has improved the drainage, playing and walking conditions.
Jebsen & Jessen will provide a holistic suite of solutions, including a full range of Toro turf maintenance equipment and irrigation systems, supported by regional after-sales service; golf course maintenance expertise through Troon International, a global leader in agronomy and course operations; and skilled manpower solutions through Eng Swee Thye Engineering, specialists in golf course and landscape services.
“This contract marks a significant milestone for us and reflects our commitment to delivering excellence in golf course management,” said Philipp Hoffmann, Managing Director, Jebsen & Jessen Technology – Turf & Irrigation. “Leveraging our local expertise to provide tailored solutions and world-class service support, and collaborating closely with our trusted partners, we look forward to supporting SICC in enhancing the playability and prestige of The Island Course.”
Ian Roberts, General Manager of SICC, added” “The Island Course redevelopment represents SICC’s vision for the future of golf – one rooted in tradition yet driven by innovation and sustainability. With Jebsen & Jessen Technology and their consortium of global partners onboard, we are confident that The Island Course will deliver an exceptional playing experience for our members and uphold SICC’s standing as one of the premier golf clubs in the region.”
