The most common materials used for floating covers are reinforced polyethylene (RPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), and polypropylene (PP). These materials are favored for their durability, flexibility, and resistance to environmental stresses.
RPE is known for its strength and puncture resistance, making it suitable for long-term applications. HDPE is highly resistant to chemicals and UV radiation, ensuring excellent durability and longevity. LDPE offers more flexibility while still maintaining good UV resistance and environmental wear protection. PP is chosen for its exceptional chemical resistance and durability, often used in applications requiring high strength and extended use.
