700GSM General Purpose PVC Tarpaulin

Technical Parameters

Material Selection Guide

The 700GSM material is the best choice when the application requires reliable performance but does not face extreme wind loads or continuous heavy abrasion.

• Environmental Condition: Suitable for most temperate climates. For extreme heat or cold, ensure the specific PVC compound includes adequate cold-crack or UV inhibitors.

• Expected Lifespan:

  Expect a reliable outdoor lifespan of 3−5 years under typical conditions; heavier grades are needed for 5+ years.

• Aesthetic: Available in smooth finishes (easier to clean) or a slightly embossed finish (provides a subtle texture and minimizes glare).

Manufacturing and Tailoring

The production focuses on consistent thickness and superior adhesion to the base scrim.

• Coating Uniformity:

  Precise calendering ensures an even 700GSM weight and thickness across the entire roll, vital for consistent final product quality.

• Color Consistency: We offer a vast palette of standard colors, with tight control over color matching (Delta E) between production runs.

• Anti-Wicking: The base scrim is pre-treated to resist capillary action, preventing moisture from wicking into the fabric core and causing mildew at the edges.

Deployment FAQ

• Q: Is 700GSM sufficient for high-speed road transport truck tarps?

  A: For long-haul, high-speed road transport, a heavier 900GSM or 1100GSM is usually recommended due to the constant wind-flap abrasion. 700GSM is adequate for local or low-speed transport.

• Q: Can this fabric be supplied with a printable surface?

  A: Yes, the white and light-colored versions can be surface-treated to accept screen printing or simple digital printing for branding and logos.
