Super Strength Tarpaulins Corner the Market

The various uses of tarpaulins are endless: they cover, they waterproof, they protect and they’re as useful around the home and garden as they are on a construction site.

But there are times when the job requires industrial strength and this is where Tarpaflex has it covered. Its super strength tarpaulin is tough enough to stand up to the most rigorous job, and the secret to its extra strength lies in the corners.

Nearly twice as heavy as the standard economy tarpaulin, the superior grade Super Tarpaflex Tarpaulin’s strength makes it ideal for industrial purposes such as for roofing, construction and agriculture, yet is still easy to handle. Made in the same way as for the standard economy tarpaulins, the difference lies in a denser 12 x 12 weave and thicker outer coating, creating a stronger grade of polyethylene tarpaulin.

While there are a number of industrial strength tarpaulins on the market, the Super Tarpaflex Tarp has unique corner reinforcements which are riveted in three places to give an unrivalled strength. This means that the strength and durability lies not only in the inherent materials, but in the plastic corner fastenings, ensuring that this tarpaulin is up to the most demanding of industrial jobs. Not only are they perfect for covering large areas such as boats and roofs (coming in four different sizes from 2m x 3m all the way up to 8m x 12m), but their durability means they can be used again and again in the construction and agriculture industries.

To give these super strength tarpaulins even longer lives, they are supplied with a UV light inhibitor to protect against fading or damage even if they are constantly used for long periods of time in strong sunlight. And just like the economy tarpaulins that Tarpaflex sell, the Super Tarp is 100% waterproof and rotproof.

The top quality specifications and specialist uses of the Super Tarp are typical of a Tarpaflex product and apply to their entire extensive range of tarpaulins. As one of the UK’s largest importers of ready-to-use polyethylene tarpaulins, they have a specialist product to cater to any large trade client as well as to the individual gardener or painter-decorator. Camouflage tarpaulins and green tarpaulins are ideal for those wanting to discreetly cover garden or agricultural areas; their flame retardant tarpaulins are perfect for use as a welding screen or wherever there is a fire hazard; while the PVC tarpaulins are Tarpaflex’s heaviest weight tarp.
