The English have the privilege of being the reference in gardening (especially when it comes to lawns). Promesses de Fleurs has chosen the English company Burgon & Ball for the quality of its materials and its nearly three-century-old steel manufacturing methods. The company has been working with steel in Sheffield since 1730, initially with a patent for solid steel sheep shears. The production of garden shears and equipment quickly surpassed that of sheep shears, but Burgon & Ball stainless steel tools are officially approved by the Royal Horticultural Society - probably the ultimate gardening accolade.

The steel used for Burgon & Ball tools is alloyed with carbon for strength and with chromium to prevent rust. It is a very precise balance that needs to be achieved between chromium and carbon, which varies for each part of the tool. The heat treatment process ensures that the steel has exactly the right hardness for each tool. If it is too hard, the metal can break or chip, and if it is not hard enough, it will bend or lose its sharpness. The thickness of the steel also depends on the tool. The thickness of the steel affects the weight, so it is also a balance that Burgon & Ball, with nearly 300 years of experience, has validated to ensure that its tools are both effective and pleasant to use.
