Builders Tarps — Heavy Duty Construction Tarpaulins

Durable, weatherproof tarpaulins engineered for professional builders, scaffolders, contractors and logistics. Custom sizes, reinforced edges and certified materials for long-term site protection.

Product Introduction

DERFLEX Builders Tarps are industrial-grade tarpaulins designed specifically for the rigours of construction sites, scaffolding enclosures, heavy-material cover, temporary shelters and weather protection. Manufactured with multi-layer composite fabrics and advanced coating technologies, our tarps offer superior tensile strength, excellent tear resistance, UV and chemical resistance, and reliable waterproofing even under prolonged exposure.

Key Features

  • Heavy-duty PVC or PE base fabrics with reinforced edges and anti-rust brass/steel grommets.
  • Multiple weights from lightweight 160gsm scaffolding mesh to heavy 650gsm PVC for material covers.
  • Advanced coatings for UV resistance, mildew inhibition and enhanced tear strength.
  • Custom printing, color choices and cut-to-size manufacturing for OEM / ODM projects.
  • Fire-retardant options (available to requested standards).

Why Builders Choose DERFLEX Tarps

  • Proven long-term durability in harsh environments.
  • Consistent quality control — every roll tested for tensile, tear, and hydrostatic performance.
  • Rapid customization and global export capability with clear documentation.

Installation Precautions

  • Inspect the tarp for visible damage prior to installation.
  • Use proper anchor points and evenly spaced grommets to avoid concentrated stress.
  • Avoid sharp edges contacting the tarp; use reinforcement patches where contact is unavoidable.
  • Do not over-stretch; allow slight tension but avoid constant over-tensioning which can cause seam failure.
  • For long-term outdoor use, select UV-stabilized and mildew-resistant coatings.
  • Store rolled tarps in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.

For scaffold enclosure installations, follow local safety regulations and scaffold manufacturer's guidance in addition to these precautions.

FAQs

Q1: What is the difference between PVC and PE builders tarps?

A: PVC tarps are laminated coated fabrics offering superior tensile strength, waterproofing and a smooth finish suitable for heavy-duty, long-term outdoor exposure. PE tarps (woven polyethylene) are typically lighter and more cost-effective, used where breathability, low cost and short-term coverage are priorities.

Q2: Can I order custom sizes and printed logos?

A: Yes — DERFLEX supports custom sizes, reinforced edges and full-color printed logos. Minimum order quantities apply depending on the printing method and customization level.

Q3: Are these tarps fire-retardant?

A: Fire-retardant formulations are available on request. We can supply test reports to EN or ASTM standards if required for your project — please specify at inquiry stage.

Q4: How do you pack and ship Builders Tarps?

A: Standard packing is in rolls wrapped with protective film and labeled for export. Smaller orders may be folded into cartons. Shipping options include sea freight (FCL/LCL), air freight and courier based on order size and customer preference.

Q5: What are typical lead times?

A: Lead times vary by order size and customization — typical production lead time ranges from 10–30 days after order confirmation and deposit. Contact our sales team for an accurate timeline for your configuration.
