Weedingtech unveil their latest machine
Weedingtech, manufacturer of the world’s leading herbicide-free weed control solution, were pleased to be back and out-in-force at Saltex this year.
Working with their Irish distributor, Furlong Equipment Services, they spoke to over a hundred organisations including councils, contractors, landscapers, private estates, golf courses, utility companies and many more.
Although showcasing their full Foamstream product line, there was particular interest in the unveiling of the newest addition – the L12.
The L12 is their entry level, plug and play, Foamstream system. With a rapid start-up time of just 30-60 seconds, you’ll be killing weeds in no time. The machine also has full trigger functionality and is very easy to use.
Its diesel and propane dual-fuel source powers a 12L per minute flow rate, matching that of their bigger M1200 system. The robust design is frame mounted with four fork-lift points and can be used on a variety of different vehicles, ranging from UTV’s, to pickups, to flat beds.
Much like the existing models, the L12 offers a range of functions, including street cleaning, power washing and gum removal. A new ‘rinse-mode’ feature has also been added, providing the operator with the option to use the machine with just water (no foam) at both high and low pressure.
Typically requiring just 2 to 3 treatments per season, Foamstream remains the most cost effective, versatile, and environmentally safe solution for controlling unwanted vegetation. Furthermore, it can be used on all surfaces, in all weathers, all year round.
It works by using the heat from hot water, insulated by a biodegradable foam, to ensure the heat covers the plant for long enough to kill or severely damage the plant. As the foam is made only from natural plant oils and sugars, it is 100% safe for use around people, animals, delicate environments and waterways.
Weedingtech will be demonstrating the machine up and down the country over the upcoming weeks. Although listed at £19,995, a special show price of £18,995 is being run for orders placed before the 18 th of December 2019.
