Winter Cover and Plant Protection Cover 80x60cm - Pack of 2

Winter Cover and Plant Protection Cover 80x60cm (Reference: 040103) is the ideal solution for all gardeners wishing to protect their plants during the winter period. Designed by Multitanks, this protection cover combines efficiency and economy to offer your plants the best wintering conditions. Made from high-quality beige heat-bonded polypropylene, it represents a lasting investment for the health of your garden.

Benefits and Use Cases

This winter cover meets the specific needs of amateur and professional gardeners who wish to preserve their plant investments during winter. It is perfectly suited for ornamental shrubs, rose bushes, olive trees, agapanthus, dwarf palm trees and other fragile plants grown in the ground or in pots. The 80x60cm dimensions effectively cover medium-sized plants, whether planted in your garden, on your terrace or balcony.

Use is particularly beneficial for Mediterranean or exotic plants grown in regions with harsh winters. Thanks to its natural greenhouse effect, the cover creates a protective microclimate that allows plants to survive frosts and negative temperatures. For green space professionals, nurserymen and landscapers, this pack of 2 covers represents an essential working tool to guarantee the survival of client plant material.

Technical Specifications and Innovation

The heat-bonded polypropylene used to manufacture these covers has remarkable properties. With a weight of 25g/m², this material offers the ideal compromise between effective protection and lightness. Its beige colour allows harmonious integration into the landscape environment while optimising the capture and redistribution of solar heat.

The heat-bonding technology guarantees superior tear resistance and increased durability against bad weather. The material resists UV rays, moisture and repeated thermal variations. The 80x60cm dimensions have been designed to adapt to the morphology of most medium-sized shrubs and ornamental plants.

The major innovation lies in the integrated zip fastening which considerably facilitates the installation and removal of the cover. This system allows the branches and foliage to be gently wrapped without risking damage, unlike traditional cord or strap systems.

Installation and Use

Installing the winter cover is intuitive thanks to the zip fastening system. Start by fully opening the zip, then gently position the cover around the plant, taking care not to force fragile branches. Gradually close the zip, adjusting the cover so that it uniformly wraps the plant.

For potted plants, ensure you leave an air circulation space at ground level to avoid excessive condensation. Installation should ideally take place before the first frosts, generally between October and November depending on your region. During winter, regularly check the condition of the cover and the plant.

In spring, gradually remove the covers when the risk of late frosts has passed. Removing them too early could expose your plants to damage. After use, clean and dry the covers thoroughly before storing in a dry place away from direct light to preserve their properties.

Tips, Synergies and Expert Advice

To optimise the effectiveness of your winter covers, combine them with other protection solutions available from Multitanks. An organic mulch at the base of the plants reinforces root insulation, while an additional winter fleece can be used as double protection for regions with particularly harsh winters.

Expert tip: avoid the common mistake of wrapping the plant too tightly. Leave an air space between the cover and the foliage to allow natural circulation and prevent the appearance of mould. For potted plants, slightly raise the container with wedges to avoid direct contact with frozen ground.

The pack of 2 covers allows you to implement a rotation strategy: while one cover protects a plant, the other can serve as a spare or protect a second plant. For professionals, this configuration facilitates the organisation of wintering projects and guarantees continuity of service in case of accidental damage to one cover.
