Ontario Farmer loved Satusteam™ !
In the article titled ‘Steam away your weed problems’, Jeff Carter says ‘Australian technology comes to Canada’. True that! Weedtechnics Satusteam™ machines are safe weed killers well-loved there. Spread across the USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, Weedtechnics is fast expanding into other countries too.
The article talks about Jeremy Winer, the Managing Director of Weedtechnics; how Satusteam™ users are enjoying their experience and believe that it is a much cheaper method for organic weeding than hiring working bees for hand weeding. Users are also amazed at how Satusteam™ is known as a safe weed killer.
Way back in 2000, the Municipality of Leichhardt was one of the pioneers to get this unique Satusteam™ weeding machine. Since then, there have been quite a few upgrades and innovations on the products but the technology has essentially remained the same.
with hoses up to about 100 meters in length and still deliver a mix of boiling water and saturated steam. A key element to the patented Satusteam™ technology is the design of the nozzle (also patented, in 2004). It pressurizes the water to about 1,000 psi which allows it to be maintained n what Winer describes as a ‘super-heated state’ –up to 118°C. At the release point, a mixture of boiling water and saturated steam at low pressure is directed down onto the weeds – killing most species of them instantly.
An almond grower in California said he can cover 12-15 acres a day with his Satusteam™ unit. Winer’s ability to design tailored weed control systems with the Satusteam™ machines and other Weedtechnics accessories offers a great value-saves time, effort, and money and yields instant results!
Since Satusteam™ is just water, there is no fear of spray drift, off-target damage, or exposure to toxins. Totally safe to breathe in and around the worksite because there’s just puffs of steam and water.
