W are pleased to announce the appointment of Campey Turf Care Systems as a new nationwide distributor for their industry-leading herbicidefree weed control system Foamstream .

Campey Turf Care Systems are one of the country ’ s leading suppliers of equipment for the professional turf sector – trusted by facility managers across the sporting and amenity spectrum . Commenting on their appointment , Lee Morgado , Sales Director for Campey Turf Care Systems said , “ Campey Turf Care focuses on natural solutions to turf maintenance , always looking to promote best practice in a considered , environmentally friendly way . That makes Foamstream a very good fit for us . It offers an innovative , ecofriendly solution to the age-old problem of tackling weeds on paved areas – an issue which affects all sporting venues , including private and public spaces which have carparks and pedestrian walkways for club members and the general public . Campey is delighted to be able to offer a totally new approach with Foamstream .”
Weedingtech ’ s Chief Commercial Officer Thomas Hamilton added , “ We are delighted to have Campey Turf Care Systems on board . They are renowned for providing quality turf management solutions and have built longlasting and trusting relationships with a number of venues , including Chelsea FC , who have already adopted Foamstream along with a number of other topflight teams across Europe . With Campey ’ s enthusiasm and expert team , we know Foamstream is in safe hands .”
Foamstream was launched in 2011 when developers Weedingtech saw the potential for a cleaner , greener alternative to traditional forms of weed control . Since its introduction , the controversy around ingredients such as glyphosate has continued to grow , with customers from all corners of grounds and green space management looking for a ‘ natural ’ solution and discovering the many benefits of Foamstream .
Combining hot water with a foam made from plant oils and sugars , Foamstream is proven to provide effective control on a wide range of weed species , with the contained heat penetrating the waxy outer layer of the leaf and travelling down the stem to the roots , killing or severely damaging the plant . In addition to eradicating the weed , Foamstream also sterilises surrounding seeds and spores that haven ’ t yet germinated , helping to reduce future weed growth and the number of treatments required .
