With our SoilSaver, we treat soil out in facilities. This can be soil that contains foreign species or plant pathogens. Such soil masses have traditionally been buried or sent to landfill because one wants to prevent these harmful organisms and species from spreading. With our SoilSaver, these soil masses can be treated and reused. In the picture below, you can see the results from a test we did where we steamed about half of a soil mound. The part of the mound that was steamed was completely free of weeds while it grew densely in the untreated part of the mound.

In 2021, we were in Spain and steamed for one of Europe’s largest vegetable producers. In one area where they grew Babyleaf (lettuce), they experienced poor growth, poor color, and high mortality of plants. This was due to soil disease. Such soil diseases cannot be combated with chemicals as the chemicals do not penetrate the soil masses. Steam, however, manages to penetrate the soil masses and the results can be seen below. In the areas we steamed, the soil disease was eliminated, and the babyleaf grew beautifully again. For the same producer, we also steamed parts of the areas where they were to grow celery and regular lettuce. There was significantly better growth in the crop in the steamed areas, and the pictures below illustrate the differences in growth.
