Map case LIFEVENTURE Hydroseal — waterproof protective pouch for maps and documents

The LIFEVENTURE Hydroseal Map Case is a waterproof protective pouch designed to keep maps, documents and small papers dry during outdoor activities. It uses a Hydroseal closure system combined with durable laminated fabric to provide protection against rain, splashes and damp conditions while maintaining clear visibility and easy access to contents. The pouch is sized to accommodate folded maps or A4 documents and is lightweight for uncomplicated transport in backpacks, on boats or during fieldwork.

Advantages

The Hydroseal Map Case provides reliable waterproofing without adding significant bulk or weight, allowing maps and documents to remain legible and usable in wet conditions. The transparent window permits reading and reference without removal of contents, and the sealed construction prevents moisture ingress from seams and closures. Its simple design is easy to operate with gloved hands and resists wear from repeated outdoor use.

• Fieldwork and surveying in wet or muddy environments

How to use

Open the Hydroseal closure, insert the map or document so it lies flat against the transparent panel, then press the closure securely to form a waterproof seal. When in use, position the pouch where it is easily accessible for reference; the transparent front allows map reading without removing the document. After exposure to heavy spray or mud, rinse the exterior with fresh water and allow to air dry before long-term storage.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, avoid prolonged submersion under pressure and ensure the closure is fully sealed before exposure to heavy rain or spray. Store maps flat within the pouch to prevent creasing and check the seal for debris before closing.
