Meeting the growing demand for herbicide-free grounds maintenance
Tim Brooks, of Tim Brooks Garden Services, and his team were finding that the demand for herbicide-free and organic alternatives weed control was constantly growing. With customers becoming increasingly conscious of the negative environmental impact of chemicals, they were ready to invest and meet the growing demand with Foamstream as their solution.
Tim found Foamstream to be effective, multi tasking and intuitive across all of the landscaping jobs, and says: “The team have been really pleased with Foamstream. One big benefit they found is they can use the same method for multiple purposes – treating weeds, moss and algae, but also for surface cleaning and pressure washing.
“They have also benefited from the fact that Foamstream can be used in all weathers, making it much easier to schedule the work. Compared to other methods, they have found Foamstream to have a quicker application rate and achieve coverage much faster.
“They have also enjoyed the format of the foam, which makes it much easier to see the areas that have been treated because there is less chance of missing patches and having to reapply the foam.
“The investment has paid for itself several times over already,” says Tim.
The company have also been using their L12 model on moss and algae, in particular for a local ferry company, where they have been treating algae on their slipways because Foamstream can be used freely around water.
The water capacity of the machine is quite large, so often they have treated weeds for a long time before they need to refill it and, overall, they have found the machine very easy to use and intuitive across all of the landscaping jobs they do.
Foamstream buying options mean that there are solutions for all sizes of business, depending on specific needs. From the L12 model used by Tim Brooks to a hybrid M600H – an ideal quiet and compact solution for built up areas.
Foamstream systems – new or pre-owned – can be purchased or leased depending on individual requirements.
