Commercial Weed Control
Weedingtech has specialised in commercial weed control since 2011, providing organisations with a sustainable, cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution. Today, our innovative Foamstream technology is the leading herbicide-free solution for managing outside spaces and is trusted by businesses, local authorities and professional sports teams around the world.
What is Foamstream
Foamstream is a patented, innovative machine developed to provide sustainable, effective, affordable weed control and outdoor management. It works by heating up hot foam, which can then be applied using a lance to unwanted vegetation. The plants become coated in the biodegradable hot foam solution, which kills them without the use of harmful chemicals. Designed to solve organisational challenges in an efficient and environmentally friendly way, Foamstream offers a safe, eco-friendly alternative for managing outdoor spaces.

Why use Foamstream?
Foamstream is an effective, affordable, sustainable and versatile form of weed prevention for businesses. Its benefits include:
- Herbicide-free – Many commercial weed killers on the market use the toxic chemical, glyphosate. Foamstream is proudly herbicide-free and safe for use around humans, animals, waterways and other delicate ecosystems.
- Viable, eco-friendly alternative – As glyphosate regulations tighten, and many herbicide application services and products are being restricted for use or banned altogether, Foamstream offers a safe, sustainable alternative.
- Fewer treatment cycles – Foamstream requires less frequent application than other weed control alternatives, reducing labour and product costs.
- Year-round and all-weather efficacy – Unlike harmful chemical solutions, Foamstream does not rely on soil absorption. It’s effective in all weather conditions and on any surface all year round.
- Multi-use – Foamstream is not only effective for site clearance and vegetation control, but it’s a powerful cleaning agent too. Its quick-release lance head allows users to seamlessly change from weed control to other applications in a matter of seconds without switching apparatus.
- Alignment with sustainability goals – As more organisations work to reduce their negative impact on the environment, Foamstream provides an organic, biodegradable and sustainable outdoor management solution.

Take a look at our case studies to find out how Foamstream has transformed the way these organisations manage their outdoor spaces.
“Since using Foamstream, we’ve cut down on the health and safety issues associated with strimming and laborious methods such as hand weeding. It’s changed the way that we weed hard surfaces, soft surfaces and playgrounds and we don’t have to use herbicides.
It’s clean and easy to use and allows us to properly allocate labour, which has helped to save 75% of our time compared to using previous methods of weed control.”
Terry Burns
Senior Contact Manager, idverde
“We used it (Foamstream) through the season and found that the weed kill results we got were better than when using green, class 11 pesticides, and its use doesn’t require advanced sign posting like a pesticide. From field observations, the Foamstream-treated weeds did not regrow as quickly as the pesticide-treated ones and new seeds did not tend to germinate after application. This unit is easy to use and has increased our efficiency in weed management.”
Rob Gagen
Supervisor, Park Operations, City of Pickering
“Foamstream was by far the best herbicide-free solution we tried. It’s very safe to use in public areas. There’s no need to barrier off treated areas, and we don’t have to worry about working close to water courses, or about using the system in public areas – even around curious children or dogs.”
Jon Greatrex
Parks and Open Spaces Officer, Vale of Glamorgan Council (UK)
“Foamstream ticks so many boxes for us. Everything from the environmentally friendly credentials and improving health and safety for our workforce through to cost and time savings by reducing the number of treatment cycles needed and the efficiency of application.”
Lewis Jones
Future Quality Obligations & R&D Manager, South West Water
“I like it, I like it a lot. Foamstream’s biggest benefit has been its instantaneous results. It’s so effective. When I treat it, I know by the end of the day it will be dead. It’s great when we need to clear an area quickly. This is a great benefit over chemicals and also vinegar. The machines are simple and straightforward to use – no certification, no masks, no suits. Foamstream has meant we can completely remove chemicals from our city.”
