SHADE BALLS

Shade Balls are spheres that cover water surfaces. The transformation power of this technology offers innovative solutions for your needs.

HOW DO THEY WORK?

Two are the main causes for water evaporation: temperature and superficial area.

Shade Balls help in the effective mitigation of those two causes at low cost.

The Shade Balls create a superficial floating layer covering 90% of the surface approximately. At the same time, the Shade Balls decrease UV rays going into the water, keeping the temperature, ans reducing the algae formation. Due to its spheric nature, the Shade Balls adapt to any water surface, independenly from its design and size. When the water level increases, the Shade Balls create again a simple layer in the surface.

BENEFITS

  • Coverage of around 90% of the water surface
  • Reduction of evaporation
  • Isolation properties to save energy
  • Elimination of algae and microorganisms growing
  • Savings in chemical products for drinking water plants
  • Avoidance of UV rays
  • Reduction of odor emissions
  • Reduction of dust in water sources
  • Wind-resistant
  • Reduction in the circulation of birds and mosquitos
