Webb Eco X-Series 40V cordless range poised for strong 2026 demand

 

Retailers are being encouraged to secure early orders for Webb’s new Webb Eco X-Series cordless garden machinery range, with first stock arriving shortly for the 2026 season. 

 

Following exceptionally strong performance from Webb’s existing Webb Eco 20V platform – now the brand’s best-selling range – the X-Series represents a timely opportunity for garden centres and dealers to respond to a clear shift in customer buying behaviour towards higher-powered battery equipment for larger gardens.

 

Developed specifically to meet rising consumer demand for cordless machinery that can comfortably manage medium to large outdoor spaces, the Webb Eco X-Series delivers dependable 40V performance without the noise, fuel storage and maintenance requirements of petrol alternatives. Powered by two interchangeable 20V lithium-ion batteries working together, the Webb Eco X-Series combines the convenience customers increasingly expect with the strength and runtime needed for more demanding tasks — positioning it as a natural next-step purchase for households upgrading their garden equipment.

 

The launch builds directly on the success of the Webb Eco 20V series, giving retailers a clear trade-up path for customers already familiar with the platform and looking for more capability as their gardening needs grow. With interest in battery-powered garden machinery continuing to accelerate, early availability of a credible, higher-performance cordless system is expected to be a strong driver of seasonal sales, as Mark Moseley, Sales & Marketing Director at Handy (owner of the Webb brand) comments: “We’ve seen a very clear trend over the past two seasons — customers want the ease and cleanliness of battery power, but they don’t want to compromise on performance as their gardens get larger. The Webb Eco 20V range proved just how strong the appetite is for well-designed cordless machinery. The X-Series takes that confidence and extends it into a higher-power platform that we expect to be in strong demand from day one.”

 

Covering all major categories of garden care — from lawnmowers and grass trimmers through to hedge trimmers, blowers, vacuums, chainsaws and scarifiers — the Webb Eco X-Series has been engineered as a complete cordless ecosystem rather than a single-tool offering. Brushless motor technology across the range ensures improved efficiency, longer runtimes and extended product life, helping retailers present a compelling long-term alternative to petrol equipment at a time when consumer expectations are evolving quickly.

 

All products are supported by a three-year warranty and full spares availability, providing additional reassurance for both retailers and end users as demand for higher-performance cordless machinery continues to grow.

 

Retailers are encouraged to place orders early to secure stock ahead of the spring season and ensure availability of what is anticipated to be one of Webb’s most sought-after launches to date.  To explore the full Webb Eco X-Series range and purchase at trade pricing, email sales@handys.co.uk or visit www.handys.co.uk.
