Foamstream Australia has an offer for contractors who get on board and purchase a machine: those contractors can lock in their working areas exclusively and be rewarded for their early take up on this worldwide patented machinery.
This will allow securing an hourly rate and enable maintaining a profitable and sustainable business without competitors undercutting in a specified area. Areas are going fast and have already been finalised in Adelaide, Geelong, Warrnambool, and Southeast Melbourne.
Foamstream is the leading herbicide-free solution for controlling unwanted vegetation including weeds, moss, and algae. Its patented low-pressure process combines hot water and biodegradable foam, made from natural plant oils and sugars, making it safe for use around people, animals, and delicate environments.
With our lance sets, it can also be used for chewing-gum removal, pressure washing and general sanitation jobs, making it a highly effective, all-round, green-space and urban-management system.
Committed to ensuring we deliver the safest, most environmentally friendly products we can to our customers, Foamstream foams have been cleared for use as an organic, non-toxic, safe product by the following bodies:
• Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority
• ACO (Australian Certified Organic)
• US EPA
• Health Canada
• REACH UK, and
• Biogrow NZ.
How does it work?
The active ingredient in the process is the heat in the hot water. The foam simply acts as an insulating blanket over the top of the hot water, ensuring heat is not lost to the atmosphere.
Using industry-leading machinery, Foamstream is applied to vegetation at low-pressure and can be used in all weathers. Once it hits the vegetation and covers it, the foam creates a thermal blanket over the vegetation and the water.
What does this mean?
Foamstream provides the most effective way of killing vegetation, meaning fewer treatment cycles are needed per year compared to any other alternative thermal method of weed control. By needing fewer treatment cycles, less labour is required over the course of the year, reducing overhead costs for customers.
In addition to killing the plant, Foamstream also sterilises surrounding seeds and spores that haven’t yet germinated, helping reduce future weed growth. By combining the most effective method, the fewest treatment cycles per year and the ability to sterilise seeds and spores, Foamstream offers customers the lowest cost of ownership and operation cost in the alternative herbicide-free space. As Foamstream can also be used for so much more than just weed control, the commercial case for using Foamstream over alternatives becomes highly attractive.
Who is it for?
Foamstream is ideal for any company, contractor, council, or organisation looking to reduce the use of herbicide from their practices and replace it with the most effective and efficient alternative.
It is also for any organisation that needs to carry out a wide range of jobs to manage green and urban spaces, including management of artificial surfaces. It can be used safely in public spaces, on utility sites, or in any space which requires an eco-friendly method of treatment, and poses no threat to people, animals, the environment, or the operator.
