A quick and practical solution for weeding cemeteries with Ripagreen®
Weeding cemeteries is an essential task for local authorities, but it can be complicated by the layout of the site. Between the narrow aisles and the gaps between the graves, these areas are often difficult to access with cumbersome and unwieldy weeding methods. That’s why Ripagreen® offers an innovative, environmentally-friendly solution, specifically adapted to this type of terrain.
The cemetery: a demanding area for maintenance
Cemeteries are places of contemplation and passage, where cleanliness and meticulous maintenance are paramount. However, the very structure of a cemetery, with its narrow paths and complex nooks and crannies, makes weed control particularly tricky. A solution like Ripagreen®, which combines manoeuvrability and efficiency, is essential for keeping these areas in impeccable condition.
Thanks to its Easy+ Kit, Ripagreen® offers a thermal weeding solution that provides easy access to all areas of the cemetery. Whether between tombs, on paths or around monuments, this technology guarantees fast, clean and effortless weeding.
Versatility and manoeuvrability: the advantages of Ripagreen®.
Weed control in cemeteries requires the ability to adapt to a variety of surfaces, from wide pathways to small, confined spaces. Ripagreen® offers a range of solutions that can be adapted to the specific needs of each site:
Easy+ Kit: This model stands out for its great manoeuvrability. Equipped with an ultra-ergonomic trolley and a spear-carrying harness, it can quickly cover areas up to 2 metres wide. This considerably speeds up work on the main aisles, while minimising physical effort. What’s more, its optimised gas consumption means you don’t have to keep going back and forth to refill your cylinders, so you can work more efficiently in the field. However, we recommend that you always carry a second bottle of gas to prevent natural icing of your gas bottle during sustained use.
Mobility Kit: This pack is ideal for smaller areas, such as the spaces between graves. The mini gas cylinder on the back allows greater freedom of movement, ensuring greater precision and in-depth weeding even in the most difficult-to-reach areas.
Autonomy Kit: For large cemeteries, this version is equipped with a 15-metre hose reel for unrivalled convenience. This model is designed to be easily transported on small vehicles, so large areas can be treated without interruption. Autonomy with two gas cylinders guarantees maximum efficiency over large areas.
An ecological and sustainable solution for weed control
In many countries, the use of plant protection products is now banned in cemeteries because of their harmful impact on the environment and local wildlife. Ripagreen® thermal weedkiller is the perfect answer to these constraints. Thanks to its pulsed hot air technology, hot air is projected at high speed, eliminating weeds without the use of chemicals. This method is not only environmentally friendly, but also safe for cemetery visitors.
Unlike other weeding methods, such as steam or water weeding, Ripagreen® does not require bulky equipment. It is therefore perfectly suited to narrow cemetery passageways, and avoids dangerous sprays on graves, such as those generated by brush systems.
Ergonomics and comfort for the operator
One of the major advantages of Ripagreen® is the comfort it offers users. The patented spear-carrying harness, equipped with numerous adjustment points, adapts to all body shapes. It allows you to weed by sweeping the area naturally and effortlessly, which considerably reduces physical fatigue during long working days.
With Ripagreen®, local authorities have a fast, effective and environmentally-friendly solution for weeding their cemeteries. Suitable for all types of terrain and offering a high degree of autonomy, this technology guarantees optimal, long-term maintenance of these places of remembrance.
Put your trust in Ripagreen® for effective, ecological weed control in your cemeteries !
