XPOWER 

INNOVATIVE ELECTRIC WEEDING TECHNOLOGY

XPower is the new future for herbicides: using high-electric power and electrophysical engineering the XPower technology allows to minimise chemical herbicides and eliminate undesirable plants effectively by electrical weeding.

The XPower XPU FOR URBAN APPLICATIONS: 
XPU is developed and adapted to address the specific weeding needs of special urban areas: industrial zones and pathways.

Features:

  • A proven alternative weeding technique.
  • Electrophysical destruction of weeds and invasive plants.
  • Works down the roots: XPower treats the plant from the leaves to the roots in the soil.
  • The Xpower products are fully compliant with European safety norms in vigor for the operator.

How does it work?

High-voltage electricity is provided locally by a generator. The electric current passes via the applicator into the plants and then into the soil. The electric circuit is closed via a second applicator that either touches other plants or the soil. The energy lets the plants wilt from the inside, right down into their roots.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES COMPARED TO CHEMICAL WEEDING?

  • Fast and durable action: it is residue-free and can be applied in most weather conditions.
  • It does not lose its effectiveness in case of rain after application, unlike chemical weed killers.
  • The XPower user is not exposed to toxic substances.
  • Neither the soil, water nor insects are affected during the application.
  • XPower applications are not subject to legal restrictions and can be applied in all areas, e.g. along water ways.
  • The XPower is a useful additional tool towards partial or total herbicide-free wine or food production.
  • No additional supplies (hot water, gas, manual operations etc.) required.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES COMPARED TO NON-CHEMICAL WEEDING?

  • Systemic action down into the roots: other non-chemical methods generally are not systemic, which provokes re-growth.
  • No impact on the soil: prevention of erosion risks and no stimulation of the weed seed stock or nutrition turnover.
  • Soil integrity: the energy runs directly into the roots and does not heat up the surrounding soil or the environment.
  • Optimised kinematics with XPS: good coverage between the vines thanks to an applicator that pivots on three rotation points.
