Hexofloat® — EuroCover's EU hexagonal cover (AWTT-approved)

Hexofloat® — EuroCover's patented EU-tooled hexagonal cover, AWTT design-approved. 190 mm tile, 99% coverage, 75 MPH wind, 15-year life, 3–6 wk EU lead.

By Published Last updated

Authentic Original NSF/ANSI food-grade formulations available FDA-compliant formulations available

Hexofloat® is EuroCover’s EU-tooled, AWTT design-approved hexagonal floating cover. In the EuroCover catalog it is the option for projects where EU origin or a 3–6 week lead time is the binding procurement constraint.

For the engineering reference — tile geometry, wind-load modelling, AWTT-approval methodology, the family-tree position relative to Hexprotect® AQUA — see pond-cover.com/hexofloat.

When Hexofloat® is the EU-procurement answer

Hexofloat® performance values below are EuroCover-published from the design-approval programme with AWTT (source — AWTT verification documentation); the equivalent AWTT-published values for Hexprotect® AQUA live on the AWTT Hexprotect® AQUA reference.

  • EU manufacturing origin required by the project’s procurement policy.
  • 3–6 week EU lead time is acceptable for the project schedule.
  • Site wind exposure is moderate — Hexofloat® is engineered to a ~75 MPH design wind threshold (EuroCover-published, AWTT design-approved), vs the higher 130+ MPH AWTT Hexprotect® AQUA envelope (AWTT-published).
  • A 15-year service life envelope is acceptable for the asset planning horizon — EuroCover-published from the design-approval programme, vs AWTT’s 25+ year Hexprotect® AQUA window (AWTT-published).
  • Transport efficiency matters — Hexofloat® ships more compactly per m² due to the lighter shell geometry.

Use cases EuroCover quotes for in the EU

  • Industrial reservoirs in EU drinking-water networks (specify food-grade at quotation).
  • Wastewater treatment digestate (odor / emissions).
  • Anaerobic digester heat retention.
  • Agricultural irrigation storage in the Mediterranean drought regions.
  • Projects with REACH-bound supply chain requirements or EU-only sourcing policies.

Lead time

Typically 3–6 weeks for EU delivery — manufactured on EuroCover-owned EU tooling. More compact than Hexprotect® AQUA for shipping, which reduces transport cost on larger orders.

Frequently asked questions

When is Hexofloat® the right pick in the EuroCover catalog? #
Hexofloat® answers two binding constraints — EU origin (for tenders that require it) and 3–6 week lead time. Hexprotect® AQUA stays the pick when site wind exposure or 25+ year design life is the dominant criterion.
Is Hexofloat® AWTT-approved? #
Yes — AWTT formally approved the Hexofloat® design for compatibility with the broader hexagonal-cover lineage. EuroCover designed and tools the product.
Can Hexofloat® be specified for potable water? #
Hexofloat® is not NSF-compliant by default. NSF/ANSI food-grade material with FDA-compliant formulations is available — specify food-grade at order time for potable applications.
What's the EU lead time? #
Typically 3–6 weeks for EU delivery. EuroCover confirms the exact lead time at quotation.
Where can I see the technical envelope vs Hexprotect® AQUA? #
