Fortbrand Services, Inc., the exclusive North American distributor for the Hagie GST 20, a multi-functional, multi-seasonal airfield maintenance unit, announces that General Mitchell International Airport (MKE) has purchased the eighth combination Hagie GST 20 airport sprayer/Vammas PS4200 Edge Light Plow in North America.

This unique multi-function, multi-seasonal unit was developed for airport use in cooperation with the staff of Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport. Currently the equipment is in use at JFK, BOS, MSP, RNO, DTW, YYC and RME. The unit can be used as (i) a high-speed, precision runway deicer and pesticide/herbicide applicator, saving both time and money in spraying applications; (ii) as a runway/taxiway light plow and sign cleaner, saving airport operators hundreds of thousands of dollars in performing theses tasks, as compared with traditional labor intensive methods and (iii) a flail mower, making the Hagie GST 20 the only piece of airfield maintenance equipment that can be used everyday of the year.

Fortbrand Services is a niche business specializing in the sale, lease and rental of aircraft ground support equipment throughout the aviation industry. The Company also is a distributor for unique airfield maintenance equipment, including the Hagie/Vammas PSB 5500, Hagie GST 20 Sprayer, Fresia F2000 Compact Sweeper and Beam VX 800 Multi-Task Airport Service Vehicle.
