FELCO 2e: The Electric Evolution of the Swiss Pruning Shear
GTN Xtra Promotion

 

FELCO, the world’s leading manufacturer of professional cutting tools and a symbol of Swiss quality since 1945, is proud to unveil the new FELCO 2e electronic pruning shear.

 

As the direct successor to the FELCO 2, the new FELCO 2e transfers everything that made this legendary model successful into a lightweight and powerful electric tool. It has been developed to make life easier for passionate gardeners, enabling them to fully express their craftsmanship in the harmonious and precise shaping of their gardens.

 

What made FELCO 2 successful remains unchanged: ergonomics, comfort, and perfect cutting control — now enhanced with electric power tailored to the needs of demanding gardeners.

 

This evolution is not purely technological: it also marks FELCO’s entry into the electric tools market for discerning home gardeners seeking innovative, durable, and easy-to-use equipment.

 

Branches up to 27 mm in diameter

With a simple click and without any physical effort, the FELCO 2e cuts branches up to 27 mm in diameter, making tasks accessible that previously required considerable force with manual shears. Its ergonomics have been designed for lightness and shaped to adapt to every hand.

 

With a total weight of under 900 g (including battery), the device guarantees optimal comfort even during prolonged use. Featuring a half-opening mode (18 mm) or full opening (27 mm), an LCD screen displaying all essential device status information, and a powerful battery (10.8 V; 3 Ah), the FELCO 2e is the ideal tool for all pruning tasks.

 

Enhanced safety thanks to CUT SHIELD

The FELCO 2e is equipped with patented CUT SHIELD technology: the pruning shear detects contact between hand or fingers and the cutting head and stops the blade closing if necessary, thereby protecting the user and increasing safety.

 

This safety function does not replace user vigilance but makes using the FELCO 2e even safer.

 

The new patented blade coating, known as F-Tech technology, revolutionizes cutting by reducing plant sap adhesion, significantly simplifying cleaning while ensuring a clean, precise cut that promotes rapid plant wound healing.

 

The FELCO 2e is supplied in a transport case containing the pruning shear, a battery, charging cable, a pair of FELCO 707 conductive gloves, a lubricating spray for the cutting head, and an instruction manual.

 

Exceptional product

“The FELCO 2e combines the prestige of the FELCO tradition with cutting-edge technology to deliver a completely new cutting experience,” says Nabil Francis, CEO of FELCO.

 

Stephan Kopietzki, FELCO’s CCO, adds: “We are delighted to present this exceptional new product. This further strengthens FELCO’s offering worldwide for both professional and hobby gardeners.”

 

Availability

The FELCO 2e kit is ready immediately through selected retailers and FELCO’s online store.
