Tune the microclimate

The BU10 is the most compact grow lighting unit in the SGL range, covering up to 10 m² of turf. Designed to treat small, targeted areas on the golf course, it is ideal for spots that require focused recovery, such as localised wear on greens, collars or high-traffic sections. The two HPS lighting fixtures deliver a high light output while radiating both light and heat, creating optimal growth conditions when natural sunlight and temperatures are insufficient. Thanks to its compact design and foldable legs, the BU10 is easy to deploy, reposition and store.

Proven technology worldwide

As the world’s first grow lighting system developed for natural grass surfaces, HPS technology has a well-established track record. By emitting light and heat simultaneously, the BU10 is particularly effective during cold, low-light periods when turf requires both additional warmth and light. Greenkeepers around the world use the BU10 to support recovery and maintain consistent turf quality in challenging conditions.

Decades of success

Grow lighting units are used outdoors and must perform reliably in changing weather conditions. All SGL grow lighting units are manufactured in-house, ensuring full control over quality, durability and performance. Built from high-quality materials, the BU10 is robust, low-maintenance and designed for long-term use. This reliability enables greenkeepers worldwide to achieve consistent results and maintain high-quality playing surfaces over many seasons.
