As the temps go down, the value of freeze-proof covers goes up.

It’s hard to overstate the importance of a protective cover being freeze-proof. When a cover freezes, it gains weight and takes on the shape of what it’s covering. At best it becomes unwieldy and difficult to stow, or may become so heavy it requires significant effort to remove. At worst, it actually freezes to what it’s covering and is nearly impossible to remove.

But if you use a cover that’s freeze-proof (a.k.a hydrophobic) you can prevent all those problems. A hydrophobic cover won’t absorb water, which means it won’t gain any weight, and will stay supple enough to remove and stow easily.

Cocoon’s protective covers utilize an advanced textile that’s both waterproof and hydrophobic. That means your asset is protected from snow, sleet and rain but remains lightweight and easy to use - even in extreme cold. The result is a cover troops will actually use, which increases readiness and decreases unscheduled maintenance.
