Foam powder is mixed into your sprayer tank at ambient temperature and kept mixed by your sprayer. Bagged foam powder is shelf stable allowing you to store it for multiple seasons if necessary

Mounted on the front of the tractor, the Brekland foam spray system connects to your sprayer tank via the pump manifold. Your sprayer mixes the solution and pumps it to the Brekland system, which converts it to foam and sprays it on the crop.

A twin set of over-the-row spray arms apply a coating of foam on both sides of the cane or spur, forming a 1-1.5 inch layer (2-3 cm) of foam that insulates buds. The Brekland foam spray system can operate in freezing conditions, allowing for continuous operation, including late night reapplication.

The foam maintains protection for a minimum of 24 hours. Depending on weather conditions, or with reapplication, protection can be maintained for 72 hours or more.

Following the frost, 0.5-1.5 inch (13-40mm) of rain will fully remove the foam and allow it to begin biodegrading in the soil. In situations with limited rain, the foam is soft enough to allow buds to punch through, or removed mechanically with blowers or washed off with a sprayer.
