Why you need a custom made sandpit cover

Once you have designed and constructed your sandpit, it is important that you choose an appropriate cover for your sandpit. The sandpit is a place where your kids will spend hours having fun, so it is essential that the sandpit is kept clean and safe.

Types of sandpit covers you can choose from

Of the many different types of sandpit covers you can choose from, the most popular ones are mesh covers and waterproof covers. Let’s take a look at these types of covers.

Mesh Covers

Mesh covers are often, the most recommended of sandpit covers. These covers let air in through them, allowing a factor of breathability in the sandpit, which prevents the build-up of mould. Mesh covers can easily protect your sandpit from animals, insects, leaves and debris. For high quality mesh covers, you can choose between our z16 or eXtreme 32 fabrics, both of which feature high tensile strength, high resistance to tear, high durability and longevity, high UVR blocking and are also extremely easy to clean and maintain.

Waterproof Covers

If you need to cover your sandpit and also protect it from water, then you should choose waterproof covers. Typically made out of PVC, vinyl or plastic, waterproof covers can be fitted over a sandpit with the help of Velcro, screw-in buttons or elastic fixings. If you want a waterproof cover for your sandpit, then you cannot find any better fabric than DRiZ or Serge Ferrari. Both these fabrics feature great waterproofing and weather resistance, high tensile strength, are flexible and offer proven longevity and durability.
