Why Cover Water?

Open water and sludge basins such as those in sewage treatment plants, retention basins, or drinking water reservoirs face numerous challenges: odors, energy losses, noise, aerosols, and hygiene risks.

Our GRP covering systems provide targeted protection and help operate facilities more efficiently, environmentally friendly, and in compliance with regulations.

Six Reasons to Cover Water

 

Reduce Odor Emissions

Open primary clarifiers, digesters, and screw pump stations often cause strong odor emissions – not only within the facility itself, but also in surrounding residential and commercial areas. Our GRP covering systems reliably enclose these emission sources and effectively prevent the spread of unpleasant odors.
 

Protection Against Aerosols and Germs

In aeration tanks and other biologically active areas, aerosols can form that may contain pathogens or harmful substances. GRP covering systems significantly reduce the spread of these particles and therefore contribute to improved occupational safety and health protection.
 

Noise Reduction

Noise-intensive plant components such as screw pumps or lifting stations often lead to significant noise pollution – especially in proximity to residential areas or sensitive facilities. With customized GRP covering systems, these noise sources can be effectively contained and regulatory noise limits can be reliably met.
 

Reduce Evaporation and Energy Loss

Basins with large surface areas lose significant amounts of water through evaporation, especially under conditions of heat or wind – resulting in energy loss. Our covering systems minimize these losses, improve thermal insulation, and contribute to a sustainable reduction in operating costs.
 

Hygienic and Safe Operation

Particularly in drinking water reservoirs and industrial process basins, strict requirements apply regarding hygiene and protection against contamination. Our GRP covering systems reliably prevent the entry of foreign substances, animals, and debris, ensuring safe and regulation-compliant operation.
 

Compliance with Regulations

Our covering systems support you in meeting environmental regulations, technical standards (e.g. DWA, AwSV), and emission limits – whether related to odor, noise, evaporation, or hygiene.
