Weedingtech, the industry leader for the foam and hot water (Foamstream) method of killing weeds, moss and algae, has announced another new partnership with a West Coast distributor, Turf Star-Western to solidify its commitment to the American market and the expansion of its global distributor network.
Turf Star-Western, the flagship distributor for the Toro Company’s commercial equipment and irrigation products on the West Coast of America, has nine depots covering Washington, California, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Alaska and Baja California.
Turf Star who has been in business for 50 years this year, is well established in its sector and will be responsible for servicing its key states with Weedingtech’s Foamstream product range. Both companies pride themselves on their technical strength and after-sales support and are excited about the future of working together.
Leo de Montaignac, Weedingtech’s CEO said of the development; “We’re delighted that our best-of-breed technology continues to be recognised as the leading solution in the herbicide-free weed control market and that it will be handled by Turf Star, the leader in their space. Our partnership with Turf Star highlights the global opportunity for forward thinking companies, like Turf Star, to add our valuable product lines to their existing business, expanding sales into new sectors, and building sales further in existing sectors. It’s fantastic to have such a well-established, market-leading businesses like Turf Star paving the way for the West Coast of the US and offering cities and other land owners the chance to go herbicide-free.”
Len Gregory, Co-Owner of Turf Star-Western commented on their hopes for the future of Foamstream across the territories they manage; “Turf Star-Western has great interest in offering environmentally benign solutions to grounds maintenance challenges.We believe that Weedingtech is on the leading edge of this herbicide-free movement offering a viable solution with its patented hot water and environmentally-friendly foam process, Foamstream.”
Launched in 2011, Weedingtech is headquartered in London and is at the forefront of herbicide-free weed control. Its patented technology has led Weedingtech to become the world leader in the herbicide-free weed control market now servicing 20 countries across Europe and N. America with its proven technology.
While there are many methods of herbicide-free weed control, Foamstream has achieved its position as market leader by offering the lowest cost of ownership and the highest level of efficacy. The key to the Foamstream technology is the biodegradable foam which acts as a heat insulator. Foamstream holds the heat on the plant for longer compared to other alternative methods, sterilising seeds and spores, leading to reduced on-going regrowth. Outside of weed and moss control Weedingtech has continued to provide innovative uses for its delivery systems, notably lances for chewing-gum removal and other street cleaning functions.
