Passion White on Black is a two-colour silage sheet that marries the benefits of an oxygen barrier film with the familiarity and strength of a conventional silage cover. This premium film has a white top side and a black underside, and it’s tough enough to be used as a stand-alone cover (no separate cling film needed) while providing an effective oxygen barrier.
The white upper surface reflects sunlight, keeping your silage cooler, while the black underside blocks light from entering the silage.
Farmers who choose Passion White on Black get a proven, heavy-duty covering solution with the added bonus of high-performance oxygen-barrier technology built in – ensuring superior preservation without changing how they normally cover their pit.
Integrated High Oxygen Barrier: Unlike ordinary black/white plastics, Passion White on Black is manufactured with a high oxygen barrier layer within it. This drastically cuts down oxygen transmission through the cover, protecting your forage much better than standard polyethylene sheeting. You can cover your clamp with just this one sheet and still achieve an oxygen seal approaching that of using a dedicated cling film underneath. Less oxygen ingress means less aerobic spoilage and dry matter loss, which in turn means more usable feed. It’s a straightforward way to upgrade silage quality on farms that are used to single-sheet covering.
White Top Surface – Cooler Silage: The brilliant white top side reflects solar radiation, helping to maintain lower temperatures in the upper layer of the silage. This is crucial during hot summers: a cooler silage surface is less prone to heat-induced spoilage, detrimental chemical reactions, and inhibits excessive yeast/mould growth when the silo is eventually opened. By keeping the silage cooler under the cover, Passion White on Black preserves more nutrients and reduces the risk of “surface heating” at feed-out. (In contrast, fully black covers can cause higher temps under the sheet.) Many professional dairy farms prefer white-on-black covers for this reason – it’s a small change that can make a big difference in feed stability.
Exceptional Durability: Passion White on Black is designed as a true top cover, so it’s thick and robust enough to handle the elements and on-farm handling. It resists tears and punctures and can tolerate people walking on it during application or removal. In fact, it’s durable as a stand-alone product without a protective cover on top – meaning it’s engineered to survive exposure to sun, wind, and minor bird or animal activity, similar to (or better than) typical 125-micron silage plastic films. Its tensile strength and tear resistance provide peace of mind that once you cover your silage, it will stay intact and effective until you’re ready to feed.
Familiar Handling: Because this product looks and feels like conventional silage sheeting (just slightly stronger), farm crews will find it familiar to use. It’s available in large sheets (common widths and lengths) and unrolls and spreads just like the standard covers they know. There’s essentially no learning curve – you get advanced protection without needing to change your covering technique. This also makes it easy for distributors to introduce; customers can adopt it readily.
All-Season UV Stability: The plastic is treated for UV resistance, so it won’t degrade even under intense sunlight for months on end. The white layer further reduces heat buildup which also prolongs the life of the cover. You can safely use Passion White on Black for extended storage (e.g., year-long covered silage or high-moisture corn piles) without worrying about the material breaking down. It’s a reliable, all-season solution – be it under summer sun or winter snow, the cover holds strong and continues to shield the silage.
Passion White on Black is ideal for any silage clamp or pile where a one-and-done cover is preferred, especially in warm or sunny climates. Use it to cover bunker silos, drive-over piles, or even silage bags that need extra protection.
To apply, roll it out across the silage and ensure the white side is facing up (reflective side out). Overlap multiple sheets by at least 1 m, and given this cover’s thickness, it’s good practice to seal overlaps with silage tape for an airtight join (though the film’s weight and an overlap may suffice, taping ensures no oxygen sneaks in). Then secure the cover thoroughly with weights. While Passion White on Black doesn’t strictly require a net or tarp over it, using Passion Gravel Bags along edges and seams is strongly recommended to maintain a tight seal and to prevent wind from lifting any part of the sheet.
Because the white top keeps conditions cooler, this product is excellent for large piles that will sit into late spring or summer; it helps retain stability in the top layers as you feed out. Distributors can pitch Passion White on Black to both advanced users and those new to oxygen barriers – it’s a premium product that delivers tangible benefits (cooler silage, less waste) with the ease-of-use of a normal cover.
The Bright Choice: Passion White on Black represents the pinnacle of one-step silage covers. It lets you cover your silage in one layer while still reaping the advantages of oxygen-barrier tech and temperature control.
For the farmer, it means simpler work and better feed, and for the distributor, it’s a standout solution that addresses common silage challenges (heat, spoilage) head-on.
If you want a silage cover that truly goes above and beyond “ordinary,” choose Passion White on Black. It’s a modern classic – a silage cover that is as easy and familiar as yesterday’s, with the innovative protection needed for today’s demanding farming.
