The AGZA Field-Tested Certification process included on-site evaluations and extensive field testing in partnership with Greenworks' engineering teams at its Morristown, Tennessee, and Changzhou, China facilities. Testing confirmed each product meets or exceeds professional benchmarks for power, runtime, serviceability, ergonomics and profitability in real-world commercial conditions.
