AWTT INC. Hexa tiles cover system is the result of intense
and extensive reasearch leading to a product which fulfills
demands of an affordable and wind resistant floating cover
for liquids.
It offers highly effective solutions to problematic liquid
storage systems such as municipal and industrial wastewater,
treatment processing plants, metal and petrochemical plants,
leachate ponds, airports, raw water reservoirs and other
applications for heat retention, photosynthesis prevention
and or a wildlife deterrent.
The Hexa Tile system ensures coverage of up to 95%. The
resulting thermal insulation barrier combines the insulation
factor of the air held in each tile with the poor heat conductivity
of plastic. While the small air pockets between the tiles
are not sealed, they also contribute to this insulation
system, which dramatically reduces heat loss and light transfer.
The cover also reduces liquid loss through evaporation and
prevents odor problems.
The Hexa Tiles barrier, contrary to standard covers, does
not represent an obstacle to static, moving or dipping equipment.
The tiles can be easily pushed aside and the cover reforms
itself as the basin and obstacles change configuration,
as in a clarifier. In fact, the tiles will keep up with
liquid level, rising, lowering and restacking themselves
as needed.
Hexa Tiles are also an effective wildlife deterrent.
When entirely covered, the body of water becomes unattractive
to waterfowl and other wildlife such as deer. They simply
don't recognize it as water.
Compared to netting, Hexa Tiles are not sensitive to ice
or snow damage and do not require any kind of support.
Hexa Tiles are produced with high quality high density
polyethylene. The expected life time is 25 years. |
