The (saw)dust is still settling on Equip Expo, the green industry’s largest annual trade show, and attendees were the first to see the new XGT 20” Chain Saw and XGT 8.0Ah High Power Battery with tabless cell technology. Together they deliver cutting power equivalent to a 50cc gas chain saw – but without the noise, emissions, maintenance and pull-starts of a gas saw! The new XGT chain saw and battery will be available in mid-2026.

Makita battery-powered tools and equipment are at work in the Japanese Friendship Garden of Phoenix. Makita is proud to support authentic Japanese gardening techniques with equipment that delivers commercial performance, but with reduced noise and emissions.
Authentic Tools for an Authentic Garden – Thank You, Makita U.S.A., Inc. Caring for a traditional Japanese garden in the heart of Phoenix takes skill, care, and the right tools. Thanks to our Partner at Makita U.S.A., Inc., our Niwashi (gardeners) now have top-quality, battery-powered tools, just like those used by gardeners in Japan. This partnership helps us stay true to our roots while moving toward a more sustainable future. Makita’s tools not only support authentic Japanese gardening techniques but also reduce noise and emissions. As our Executive Director and Garden Curator Ben Schrepf shared: “Thanks to Makita, we are almost entirely battery powered. This helps us care for the garden in a quieter, greener way and ensures we continue offering a peaceful experience for every visitor.” If your organization is looking to support the arts, culture, or community wellness, we’d love to talk. Let’s explore how we can grow something meaningful, together.

Makita drew big traffic last week at World of Concrete in Las Vegas – and with 16 demonstrations the booth was hands-on and loud! Attendees were the first to try out the new 40V max XGT 16 ga. Rebar Tying Tool with deep capacity and stronger ties (coming soon). Makita showed concrete contractors why MAKTRAK™ is the ideal modular storage system for their oversize tools like rotary hammers and longer bits. Other highlights included the new XGT 70 lb. Breaker Hammer, the XGT 9” and 14” Power Cutters, the new LXT framing nailer, and more. #worldofconcrete #worldofconcrete2025 #concrete #makitatools
