A buoyant surface barrier deployed on the surface of a water body — modular hexagonal, continuous geomembrane, or spherical (armor ball) — to reduce evaporation, algae, odor, and heat loss.

On industrial water sites, a floating cover is the procurement category that includes hexagonal modular covers (the most common choice for reservoirs over 1,000 m²), spherical floating covers (small or irregular bodies), and continuous geomembrane (full sealing or gas capture).

In the EuroCover catalog: hexagonal modular → Hexprotect® AQUA and Hexofloat®; spherical → Armor Ball AQUA; continuous → not stocked, see the geomembrane comparison.
