Product Description
100mm hdpe float ball, also known as the innovative and eco-friendly shade ball, is designed to revolutionize water conservation and quality management. These Shade Balls are engineered from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), ensuring durability, UV resistance, and long-lasting performance in various environmental conditions. 100mm hollow hdpe black plastic shade balls for Reservoir Evaporation Protective are used to prevent water evaporation, inhibit algal growth, and reduce the formation of harmful chemicals.Below is a detailed introduction to shade balls:
Characters of Shade Ball Floating Covers
Easy to Install: Simply drop them into the water, pond, or tank.
Continuous Coverage: They begin working immediately, providing 24/7 coverage regardless of the liquid level.
Adaptive Design: Naturally rise and fall, restacking themselves and conforming to the exact shape of your reservoir.
Versatile Stacking: reservoir balls will double stack at low water levels and single stack at high water levels.
Durable and Long-Lasting: UV inhibitors protect them from the sun's rays, ensuring a lifespan of 10 years or more.

Advantages of HDPE Bird Hollow Floating Balls
Cost-Effective Solution: Provides an economical way to manage your reservoir.
Easy Installation: Simple to deploy, requiring minimal effort.
Adaptive to Liquid Levels: Adjust to changes in liquid levels by spreading and stacking.
Long-Lasting Protection: UV inhibitors ensure over 10 years of service life.
Weather Resilient: Unaffected by snow and ice.
Prevent Vegetation Growth: No plant growth on top.
Material:
Shade balls are typically made from High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), a food-safe plastic that is BPA-free
They often have a black surface to absorb sunlight and reduce the amount of light entering the water
Application Method:
Shade balls are directly released into the reservoir, forming a floating cover
They are typically used for large open reservoirs but can also be applied to other water storage facilities
Benefits:
Reducing Water Evaporation: The covering of shade balls significantly diminishes direct sunlight exposure on the water surface, thus reducing evaporation.
Inhibition of Algal Growth: Reducing sunlight penetration into the water can inhibit photosynthesis, thus decreasing the growth of algae.
Preventing Harmful Chemical Reactions: Shade balls can prevent the formation of harmful substances like carcinogenic trihalomethanes, which form when chlorine and sunlight combine.
Environmental Impact:
Shade balls have a minimal impact on the environment due to their stability and durability
However, regular monitoring and maintenance are still required to ensure they are not broken or damaged
