The any climate, every season, all-weather cover.

Every military base presents its own set of climate challenges. Some are in tropical zones, others are in arctic zones, or desert regions. Even on a single base you can deal with extremely cold winters and hot humid summers. 

Every kind of climate exposes your assets to damaging elements that can cause corrosion, degrade capabilities, and reduce readiness. Even the most rugged equipment is no match for Mother Nature.

Unfortunately, not every kind of cover is effective in every kind of climate. For example, most covers trap moisture against the asset because they aren’t sufficiently air-permeable. That’s particularly problematic in tropical climates. 

Meanwhile in arctic zones, many covers will freeze, making them difficult, or even impossible to remove and stow. That’s because they aren’t hydrophobic.

Fortunately new technologies have made it possible to create a cover that works in all conditions. After years of R&D, Cocoon developed a patented cover that manages to outsmart Mother Nature in all kinds of weather across the globe.

Cocoon protective cover features:

  • Waterproof

  • Highly air-permeable (see our post on air-permeability vs. breathability)

  • Hydrophobic

  • Oleophobic

  • Freeze-proof

  • UV Protection

  • Sand-proof
    (filtering down to 0.3 microns)

  • Anti-Static

  • Lightweight and flexible

  • Durable and washable

Cocoon covers give you confidence in every climate, and protection from any kind of weather Mother Nature throws at you. They meet every one of the 12 requirements of the AMCOM Protective Cover Performance Specification.

Utilization of modernized covers improves readiness, reduces maintenance costs, and extends asset lifecycles.
