A large industrial site, such as a collection of buildings belonging to a manufacturing company or even an airport, is much like a small, intimate community. Like any other community, there are places where people gather to socialize, places to eat, and a set of social norms to follow.
In that light, Ground Force’s approach to vegetation management for industrial sites is very community-oriented. That means we take care of unwanted vegetation while encouraging the growth of more desirable plants that benefit the community as a whole.
Weed Control
At Ground Force, we recognize the significant impact that uncontrolled weed growth can have on industrial sites. Not only can weeds be unsightly, but they can also pose safety hazards and interfere with operations.
Our approach to weed control is both strategic and sustainable, focusing on minimizing environmental impact and unwanted vegetation at the same time. By implementing an integrated management plan that includes selective herbicide application, physical removal, and preventive measures, we address weed problems at their root. We’ll treat fences to preserve the investment you made in purchasing them and maintain areas that must remain bare with total weed control. When we develop a treatment plan with you, Ground Force can help maintain - or even elevate - the aesthetic value of industrial sites.
Vegetation for Safety
Keeping industrial sites safe is a top priority, and managing vegetation is key to this goal. Overgrown plants can hide potential dangers, block exits, exacerbate flood problems, and increase fire risks. Part of the work we do at Ground Force is removing these hazards. With a combination of methods, such as applying herbicides, manually cutting back unwanted weeds, and encouraging the growth of helpful plants, we make sure the “community” surrounding the industrial site is both safe and pleasant to look like. Our control methods also help prevent accidents and create a safer work environment.
Keeping Right of Ways Clear
Right-of-way areas are critical for the efficient functionality and safety of industrial sites. These areas provide necessary access for maintenance, emergency services, and other site operations. Ground Force employs specialized vegetation management techniques to keep these areas clear and accessible. We’ll work with you to develop a regular maintenance schedule and use a combination of methods to prevent vegetation from encroaching on pathways and access routes. By ensuring these critical areas are free from obstruction, vegetation management can enhance operational efficiency, safety, and compliance with regulatory requirements.
Beautifying Retention Ponds
The main function of retention ponds is to collect rainwater that would otherwise have nowhere else to go. For this reason, they need to be well-maintained and free of obstacles that might prevent water from reaching its destination. On the other hand, we believe that retention ponds can also be a beautiful centerpiece of a given area. With support, a retention pond can be transformed from an area that is simply functional to a serene and picturesque spot where people will gather and build community.

At Ground Force, we work on making these ponds more pleasant by focusing on the right kinds of plants. Our strategies aim to control unwanted plants, like invasive species or weeds, while boosting the growth of helpful ones. This makes the ponds look better, turning them into spots that both people and wildlife enjoy relaxing. We also can prioritize plants that cleanse the water and benefit the local ecosystem. This approach not only makes the site more attractive but also creates a healthier space for everyone around.
