No permission required

Vaporizont is easy to use, requiring no specialized labor or license. The treatment can be performed independently by the company's internal staff.

Safe for human health
and the environment

Unlike chemical treatments that are legally required to be phased out, steam uses a natural physical method.
It leaves no toxic residues in the soil, making it safe for the environment, future crops, and the health of operators.

Effective and versatile

Vaporizont is highly effective against a wide range of pathogens, pests, and weed seeds.
The high temperatures of the steam denature proteins and destroy cellular structures. Its effectiveness is evident from the first application, and in controlled environments like greenhouses and tunnels, the effects last longer, reducing the need for repeated interventions.

Short application times

Vaporizont requires only 24 hours for tarp placement, allowing for rapid soil reuse and minimal downtime. This speeds up production cycles and enhances agricultural efficiency.
During treatment, adjacent plots can still be worked on.

Effectiveness over 90%

Field tests, specific analyses (CERSAA), and customer experiences confirm its superior validity and effectiveness compared to other treatments.
The effect of soil disinfection and weeding is over 90%.

Lower costs
and increased yield

Treatment with Vaporizont shows tangible results on pathogens and weeds, reducing management costs by 15%.
Additionally, in some cases, it increases yield by 35% (data provided directly by customer companies).

Customizable

Vaporizont can be tailored to meet the specific needs of agricultural, floricultural, or nursery businesses.  

Built to Last

Thanks to the quality of materials and components, selected directly by us, we guarantee that the machine will maintain its performance and operate effectively for many years.

OUR CLIENTS SAY…

Paolo Calcagno

"Con Vaporizont sono spariti dal primo utilizzo infestanti e funghi, e a distanza di anni siamo ancora più che soddisfatti della scelta"

Az. Agr. Calcagno Paolo Basilico e ortaggi

Sebastiano

"Con i trattamenti chimici non riuscivo più a risolvere il problema della Fusariosi, che mi creava danni soprattutto dopo la prima raccolta. Con Vaporizont ho notato fin da subito un miglioramento della germinazione ed una crescita più uniforme dei semi."

Az. Agr. Sebastiano Cambiaso Basilico Genovese Dop

Ezio Viscardi

"Prima utilizzavo Vapam e pirodiserbo, ma non riuscivo ad ottenere un risultato che valesse la spesa. Da quando applico il vapore ho visto un cambiamento incredibile. Sull'insalata rossa prima facevo un taglio scarso, ora raccolgo tre volte!"

Soc. Agr. Viscardi G. Carlo Insalate IV Gamma

Massimo Manni

"Avevamo problemi di Nematodi e Verticillium, con Vaporizont abbiamo risolto e riusciamo a prepare il campo in sole 48 ore. I risultati si vedono fin da subito. il terreno è più leggero e la pianta cresce più sana e rigogliosa."
