HEXA-COVER – how to protect your water reservoir

The unique and patented Hexa-Cover floating tile is perfect as a cover on any form of fluid surface. Today Hexa-Cover is in use on almost all forms of basins, lagoons, reservoirs, ponds and tanks.

The Hexa-Cover floating tile has been developed with a view to satisfy all requirements as to a floating covering for fluid surfaces.

The Hexa-Cover floating tile ensure:

  • Up to 95% reduction of evaporation from the water surface
  • Up to 95% stable and constant reduction of emission of such things as ammonia
  • Up to 90% stable and constant reduction of odours
  • Noticeable reduction in organic growth such as algea
  • Storm resistance, withstands wind velocities up to 32 m/s
  • Ease of installation
  • Automatic distribution of floating tiles on liquid surfaces
  • Free access to water for animals
  • Life expectancy of 25 years
  • Favourable price
  • Manufactured of recycled plastic, without the use of Freon or other harmful materials

In addition, there are a number of clear benifits, such as:

  • No running costs
  • Low total costs (reduced consumption of water, energy chemicals, additives as well as time savings
  • No repairs to e.g. roofing, tenting or other coverings
  • No supervision

The fundamental idea behind the floating tile is that it is constructed as a six-sided plate with symmetrical ribs on each side.

The floating tile is made of plastic with a relative density of 0,5 kg/l. This ensures that one half of the tile will float above the surface of the fluid so that the elements will lie flat on the surface.

Ribbing ensures that the floating tiles distributes themselves naturally and evenly over the surface of the fluid, without overlapping. The tiles have specially designed edges that grip into each other.

The design means that the tiles lock into each other by the action of the wind to automatically form a continuous covering. The surface of the tile will resist any natually occuring effects from the weather.
