CompostexTM Windrow Compost Fleece Covers
Using Windrow Covers for Better Quality Compost

The breathable Compostex TM fabric allows for proper CO2 and Oxygen respiration.

Compostex Windrow Fleece Covers are designed to improve the quality of your compost. The fleece covers are made from a breathable material which allows for air circulation while protecting your compost. Although the covers are not entirely repellant when placed on a peaked shaped windrow, they will repel excessive water. As microbes are light sensitive, the fleece is designed with UV protection from rays of sunlight. The covers have a five year warranty and usually last longer.
