Covex® is a modular floating cover made of interlocking plastic hexagons designed to cover liquid surfaces and deliver immediate protection against evaporation, algae growth, contamination, odors, freezing and heat loss while protecting wildlife. The system forms a near-continuous barrier across the water surface, delivering proven efficiency gains and long-term durability.
Key benefits- Up to 97% evaporation reduction — drastically reduces water loss and improves water availability.
- ~95% algae and biofilm reduction — blocks sunlight to stop photosynthesis; no chemicals or equipment needed.
- Over 90% odor reduction — minimizes bad odors affecting nearby areas.
- Freeze retardant / insulating — insulation properties delay freezing by many hours.
- Significant heat loss reduction — lowers heat loss and energy consumption.
- Water & wildlife protection — keeps birds and wildlife away from the liquid surface to avoid contamination.
- Prevents mosquito formation — reduces mosquito breeding by covering the surface.
Design & materials- Modular hexagonal elements that interlock to form a continuous cover; when filled with water the hexagons gain ballast for stability.
- Hexagons cover approximately 98% of the liquid surface when fully installed.
- Lightweight, aerodynamic design combined with water ballast for high wind resistance and low center of gravity.
- Manufactured using recycled plastic and designed to minimize plastic usage per unit—positioned as a circular-economy product.
Applications & proven performance- Suitable for agriculture, mining, wastewater treatment plants, ponds and other liquid surface installations.
- Performance claims (evaporation, algae, odor reduction) supported by studies from universities and technical entities specializing in thermodynamics and fluid dynamics.
