Pruners & Floral Snips: Precision Cutting Tools
Pruners (also known as secateurs) and floral snips are single-handed cutting tools designed for precision pruning, harvesting, and deadheading. Engineered for accuracy and control, they are essential tools for home gardeners, greenhouse workers, vineyard maintenance, orchard pruning, and professional horticulture.
Pruners are commonly available in Bypass types for clean cuts on green wood and Anvil types for dry or hard stems. Snips feature slender, pointed blades for fine, detailed cutting or harvesting. Key considerations include blade type, material, cutting mechanisms, and handle ergonomics.
OEM/ODM customization and private brand development are available for global retailers, distributors, and garden tool brands.
Blade Specifications
1. Blade Type & Design
• Bypass blades: Provide clean, precise cuts for live branches, stems, and flowers.
