PRODUCTS & SERVICES WEED REMOVAL NO
LONGER A KILLER Everyone knows the stubbornness of weeds and moss, but by sprinkling with boiling hot water as high as 99°C from the Trafalgar WeedKiLLER, not only will the weed and moss be killed immediately, but the water will also penetrate to the root and the seeds will be attacked and killed too.
Since the weed will not be able to flower any more and spread itself,
there will be a preventive effect and the weed will stay away. In most cases three treatments a year will be enough to combat the weeds and moss. This will depend on the kind of weed and the weather circumstances while performing these activities.
Today great importance is attached to preserving the environment, and the Government imposes more and more restraints on the use of weed killing pesticides. There are several alternatives to kill weeds and moss without pesticides, but the most effective one is by using hot water.
Furthermore the GreenBoiler happens to be very energy-saving, so the burner boiler is used to heat the water up to 99°C at the nozzle. This high-tech burner boiler gives a fuel saving of 18% in comparison with the conventional burner boilers. Even further this boiler has a low CO2 emission as well as a high efficiency of at least 92%.
The diesel engine with ecological heat exchanger shows an energy- saving effect, and because of the preheating of the water this results in an extra fuel saving of as much as 15%.
Apart from the function of weed killer, the Trafalgar WeedKiLLER can also be used as a high pressure
LCC CLEANS
WITHOUT CHLORINE LCC Support Services, the independent national service provider has taken another major step forward in its campaign to preserve the environment.
Following extensive trials LCC is installing Lotus Pro aqueous ozone (AO) systems into the cleaning rooms of many of its larger client sites, thus enabling its staff to provide more hygienic and effective cleaning.
Lotus Pro takes mains water and introduces an extra oxygen atom to an oxygen molecule and water molecules. This creates a highly efficient natural cleaning agent that breaks down

dirt, grease and other contaminants without any toxic solutions.
When used as a sanitiser or disinfectant, AO is a broad range anti- microbial agent that works faster and more effectively against pathogens than chlorine bleach, but without the fumes and toxic residues.
Regardless of size of building, only one AO unit needs installing in the cleaning cupboard to enable staff a source of aqueous ozone for a wide range of cleaning tasks.
Lorraine Larman, LCC’s Safety and Training Manager said: “This system is amazing. We recently found that AO would remove carpet stains that no chemical could handle. It is brilliant for use in hospitals, stadia, shopping
cleaner for various cleaning jobs too. The machine has a capacity of 25 litres per minute at a pressure of 250 bar. It can also be used as sewage cleaner or as road surface cleaner to remove oil tracks. It also works at removing chewing gum and graffiti.
This machine uses hot-water technology to kill weed and moss growing in an effective and ecologically sound way. Two people can work at the same time with the Trafalgar WeedKiLLER.
Trafalgar's WeedKiLLER is built on a trailer and contains a 450 litre water tank and a plunger pump with a maximum capacity of 25 litres per minute. This pump is driven by a three cylinder 19.5 KW diesel motor, which may be charged with a maximum rotational speed of 3,600 revolutions per minute.
The operating panel of the trailer is located on the back. The machine contains two SS reels, each one equipped with a 25 metre hose with gun and spray fittings.
The trailer also contains a 12 volt self-sucking pump, which can be connected to an external tank which can be taken along in the pulling vehicle, allowing for an even greater water stock.

centres and heavy user washrooms to sanitise toilet seats.”
Lotus Pro is fully tested and exceeds Green Seal Environmental Standards (GS-037) as an industrial cleaner. Testing by the Toxics Use Reduction Institute (TURI) scored 50/50 for cleaning power and ‘green benefits’.
This unit is a powerful sanitiser and will kill 99.99% of bacteria and viruses including Salmonella, Streptococcus Faecalis, Norovirus and Hepetitus A.
