Why choose this product
01
Deter waterfowl landings
Interlocking surface coverage reduces aerial visibility so birds are less likely to land on active solution ponds.
02
Keep ponds covered in harsh conditions
Stable floating geometry continues to cover the surface even when gypsum or scale accumulates on the pond.
03
Reduce process losses
Documented evaporation, gas-emission, and heat-loss reductions help improve pond operating efficiency.
