Reinforced plastic tarpaulin in 4 m x 5 m sheet or 4 m x 50 m roll developed by International Research Project and designed for long outdoor use in all climates.
Made of woven high density black polyethylene (HDPE) fibres, warp x weft, laminated on both sides with low density polyethylene (LDPE) coating.
Features fire retardant, waterproof and UV-resistant properties.
Serves as a highly recommended option for family shelter protection.
190 ±20 g/m² woven polyethylene (HDPE) inner black fibres, warp x weft, laminated on both sides with LDPE coating
