Weed Control
The powerful equipment carriers of Kärcher Municipal offer a wide variety of sustainable and efficient weed control.
Owing to the current legislation, non-chemical weed control has become a more and more important maintenance activity for contractors and municipalities over the last years. Parking spaces, graveyards, public squares and bus stops, sports grounds, hard courts and tennis courts, as well as port and waterfront areas of various rivers and lakes, need to be kept free of weeds.
Non-chemical Weed Control With the Wrs 200 Weed Control System From Kärcher
The hot-water WRS 200 weed control system from Kärcher for Holder B and C series offers municipal users and service providers an opportunity for a targeted removal of unwanted weeds that is both thorough and environmentally friendly, and is, with only approx. four treatments a year, the most economical approach from a long-term perspective.
The very compact design and independence from an external water or electricity supply allow it to also be used in very remote places and on pavements, in parks or in inner city areas. Weeds are controlled in a targeted manner with hot water at 98 °C – mechanically using the mounted front beam or manually with the hand lance.
Versatile weed control applications:
Weed growth itself is as diverse as the possibilities to remove it with our municipal vehicles - whether with hot water, fire, hot air, foam or mechanical solutions.
