Coverstar Featured Product - Heat Sealed Webbing

Automatic Pool Covers have seen great innovations through the years.  These innovations have allowed automatic pool covers to be installed on a larger variety of pool shapes and sizes, while at the same time, improving  reliability of the cover.

In 2002, Coverstar introduced one such innovation that significantly improved the reliability of automatic covers - Heat Sealed Webbing.

The webbing is the material that is attached to the sides of the cover and that actually rides in and locks into the cover track.   Traditionally, the webbing is sewn to the cover fabric, making this webbing to fabric connection only as strong as the stitches.

 
As the stitches are exposed to the harmful effects of the sun and chemicals, they begin to weaken and eventually break.   Automatic covers with the sewn-on webbing are often replaced because the webbing went bad, not because the cover fabric went bad.

Coverstar’s Patented Heat Sealed Webbing is attached to the cover through a process that actually bonds the webbing to the fabric without sewing.   This attachment is much stronger and much longer lasting than sewn webbing. In addition, the heat sealed webbing is available in different colors to match the cover fabric.
