Glyphosate is the world’s most common herbicide, but evidence shows it has serious health risks for people and animals. Studies show that people with the highest exposure face a 41% increased risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, while research from the Ramazzini Institute has raised concerns around hormone and fertility disruption. The proposed Plant Protection Products Bill […]
From all of us at Weedingtech, thank you for your support throughout 2025. It’s been an outstanding year for us and in this newsletter, we’d like to take a moment to reflect on some of the highlights that made 2025 so fantastic. The evidence is clear In June, the landmark global glyphosate study from the Ramazzini Institute, […]
Why are councils moving towards herbicide-free weeding? In 2025, a landmark study from the Ramazzini Institute confirmed that glyphosate, the herbicide used in most weed killers, can cause rare cancers and disrupt hormones at levels the EU previously deemed safe. However, a recent PAN UK survey found that over half of UK councils still use […]
Weedingtech has announced the launch of its new Foamstream L10H hybrid unit, the smallest, lightest and most affordable machine in its range yet. The L10H aims to further improve access to effective, eco-friendly weed control as the demand for herbicide alternatives continues to rise. The L10H is designed for the convenient transportation and application of […]
As awareness grows around the risks associated with chemical herbicides, more organisations are seeking safe, effective, eco-friendly weed control alternatives for their outdoor spaces. Boiling water is one weeding method rapidly garnering interest. The hot water melts the waxy protective coating of the weed, rupturing its cell structure and causing it to dehydrate. While its […]
Weed control is a crucial part of maintaining public spaces, keeping them safe and accessible for people to enjoy. Up to now, much of that weed removal has been done using herbicides, which usually contain the controversial chemical, glyphosate. In fact, glyphosate makes up at least 90% of the pesticides used in public spaces, according […]
New York’s flagship university, University of Buffalo, has adopted Foamstream to tackle invasive plants and unwanted growth, and align its campus maintenance operations with ambitious sustainability goals. The non-toxic foam weed killer has transformed weed control and landscaping across the university’s three campuses, spanning 1,172 acres. As the second-highest ranked university in the US for […]
A new report from PAN UK has revealed a growing disconnect around pesticide use. While the majority of the general public in the UK want pesticide-free public spaces, many councils continue to use glyphosate – a weedkiller with well-documented health and environmental concerns. So why is this still happening? And more importantly, what needs to […]
Hot foam weed control is on the rise, fast gaining traction among eco-conscious organisations around the world. As awareness and education around the devastating impacts of glyphosate grows, organisations, councils and contractors are turning their backs on toxic herbicide products and seeking an environmentally safe weed killer solution. Enter, foam weed control from Weedingtech. Whether […]
Evidence continues to mount up against the use of glyphosate and controversial glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs), with groundbreaking new findings from the Ramazzini Institute finding links between supposed ‘safe’ exposure levels to the chemical and cancer incidences. In a webinar hosted by the Pesticide Action Network UK (PAN UK), Professional Michael Antoniou, molecular geneticist and toxicologist […]
