Finished PVC Tarpaulin Industry knowledge

1. How to quickly choose the right Finished PVC Tarpaulin? The key is to look at these 3 points​

When choosing Finished PVC Tarpaulin, there is no need for complicated testing. Through intuitive observation and simple testing, you can initially judge whether it meets the requirements. Focus on the following three aspects:​

First look at the fabric texture. The finished product of high-quality PVC tarpaulin feels thick and elastic, and can rebound quickly after being pressed by hand. The surface coating is even, without bubbles, impurities or local uneven thickness. If it feels thin and brittle, or if the coating is sticky or peeling off, it is likely to have poor durability and is prone to cracking and leaking problems after long-term use, so it is not recommended. If you have higher requirements for quality, you can give priority to companies like Qidong Good Tarpaulin with more than 20 years of professional production experience. They not only strictly control the base fabric and coating process of PVC tarpaulin fabric, PVC mesh fabric and other fabrics, but also provide free sample services so that everyone can intuitively feel the texture and performance of the fabric and reduce the risk of purchase.​

Secondly, test the waterproof performance. You can pour a small amount of water on the surface of the tarp and observe the state of the water: high-quality products will form water droplets that roll off quickly and will not penetrate into the fabric; if the water spreads quickly or there are signs of water seepage, it means that the waterproofing is poor and cannot cope with rainy days or humid environments. In addition, you can also gently rub the seams of the tarpaulin. If the seams are not glued or detached, and the waterproof tape is tightly adhered, the waterproof effect will be more guaranteed. For needs that need to be exported or adapted to the climate of different regions, such as for the rainy Southeast Asian market or the Middle East with strong UV rays, Qidong Good Tarpaulin, with its experience in exporting to 90+ countries, can optimize the waterproof and anti-UV performance according to the target market environment, ensure product adaptability, and avoid usage problems caused by climate differences.​

Finally, focus on structural design. Different usage scenarios have different requirements for tarpaulin structures. For example, if a tarpaulin is used to cover goods, you need to check whether there are enough fixed rope holes and tightening straps, and whether the edges of the rope holes are reinforced (such as metal eyelets, thickened edges) to avoid damage when pulling; for tarpaulins used to protect equipment, you need to check whether access openings and heat dissipation holes are reserved, and whether the openings have convenient opening and closing designs (such as zippers, Velcro) to facilitate subsequent maintenance of the equipment. If conventional finished products cannot meet special needs, such as truck covers of non-standard sizes and protective covers for special-shaped equipment, Qidong Good Tarpaulin supports customization according to specific application scenarios - it can not only provide PVC fabrics, but also directly process them into finished products such as truck covers, trailer covers, machine covers, etc. As a direct supplier from the factory, it can provide more reasonable prices while ensuring quality, reducing the cost superposition of intermediate links.​

2. How to use it in different scenarios? Finished PVC Tarpaulin fitting tips​

Finished PVC Tarpaulin has a wide range of application scenarios, but the usage requirements in different scenarios are quite different. Mastering the adaptation skills can make the protection effect twice the result with half the effort:​

In cargo transportation scenarios (such as truck and trailer coverage), the focus is on “fit” and “fixability”. Before use, make sure the size of the tarpaulin matches the cargo or compartment to avoid being too large and causing it to shift due to wind resistance while driving, or being too small to completely cover it. When fixing, first spread the tarpaulin flatly on the surface of the cargo to ensure there are no wrinkles, and then use tightening straps and ropes to secure the edges of the tarpaulin to the carriage, especially at the corners. It is recommended to wrap it twice more and then tie it with a knot to prevent looseness caused by bumps. If you are transporting fresh food, grain and other goods that require ventilation, you can choose a tarp with a mesh window design, or leave appropriate gaps on the side of the tarp (avoiding the direction of rainwater) to prevent the goods from becoming moldy due to sweltering heat. For companies with long-term transportation needs, if they need to mass-customize truck covers and trailer covers suitable for different models, Qidong Good Tarpaulin can rely on the production capacity advantages of 4 calendering production lines and 6 composite coating production lines to quickly complete the delivery of batch orders. At the same time, it provides one-stop service from fabric production to finished product processing, reducing intermediate communication costs and time loss.​

In equipment protection scenarios (such as industrial machines, outdoor equipment), the usage method needs to be adjusted according to the characteristics of the equipment. For large equipment, detachable tarpaulins are preferred to facilitate partial disassembly during subsequent equipment maintenance without the need for complete removal. If the equipment requires heat dissipation, it is necessary to choose finished products with breathable mesh, or to reserve openings in the corresponding heat dissipation parts of the tarpaulin and cover them with dust-proof nets to take into account both protection and heat dissipation. For equipment that is susceptible to acid and alkali corrosion (such as chemical workshop equipment), ensure that the tarpaulin completely covers the surface of the equipment during use to avoid corrosive substances from splashing on the equipment. At the same time, regularly check whether the tarpaulin is damaged and replace the damaged parts in a timely manner. If the equipment belongs to special industries (such as food processing, medical equipment), Qidong Good Tarpaulin can provide customized products that meet industry compliance standards - it has a professional quality inspection team and advanced testing equipment to ensure that the tarpaulin material is safe and does not release harmful substances, ensuring that the quality of the finished product is stable and adaptable to the use requirements of special industries.​

In temporary outdoor scenes (such as camping tents and awnings), focus on "wind resistance" and "convenience". When setting up a tent or awning, the tarpaulin needs to be fixed on a stable bracket, and the connection points between the bracket and the tarpaulin should be tightened to avoid loosening. If there is windy weather, you can add weights (such as sandbags, stones) to the bottom of the tarp, or add additional fixed ropes to enhance wind resistance. When storing after use, you need to clean the dust and debris on the surface of the tarp first, dry it before folding it, to avoid the growth of mold in a humid environment, which will affect the next use. For customers with outdoor product production needs, if they need to combine PVC mesh, PVC canvas and other different fabrics to make multi-functional tents or awnings, Qidong Good Tarpaulin can provide multi-category fabric support - its product line covers PVC tarpaulin fabric, PVC mesh fabric, PVC canvas fabric At the same time, it can optimize the finished structure according to the usage scenario, such as adding a wear-resistant coating to the bottom of the tent and designing waterproof eaves on the edge of the awning to improve the practicality of the product. This is also an important reason why it can serve the world's diverse outdoor needs.​

3. Don’t step on these pitfalls when using it! 5 things to consider to extend your lifespan​

When many people use Finished PVC Tarpaulin, the product is damaged prematurely due to improper operation. Pay special attention to the following 5 precautions:​
Avoid scratches with sharp objects. When covering goods or equipment, you need to first clean up the sharp protrusions on the surface (such as metal corners on the edge of the goods, screws on the equipment), or put a soft cloth on the sharp parts, and then cover the tarpaulin to prevent the tarpaulin from being scratched; when transporting the tarpaulin, avoid dragging it over rough ground (such as cement floors, gravel roads) to reduce fabric wear. If you purchase Qidong Good Tarpaulin's customized products, they will usually be reinforced in areas that are prone to wear and tear (such as corners, rope holes) - such as using thickened fabric or metal eyelets to further improve durability. When purchasing, you can focus on such detailed designs to extend the service life of the product.​

Do not overload and pull for a long time. When fixing the tarpaulin, tighten the ropes or straps with a moderate intensity to avoid excessive pulling, which may cause fabric deformation and seam cracking. If you encounter strong winds, do not forcefully pull the tarpaulin to try to fix it. You can temporarily loosen part of the ropes to reduce the pulling force of the wind resistance on the tarp, and then refix it after the wind weakens. For tarpaulins used in high-frequency usage scenarios (such as covering daily goods in logistics parks), it is recommended to choose fabrics with higher tensile strength. Qidong Good Tarpaulin can recommend suitable fabric thickness and technology based on the frequency of use - for example, for high-frequency usage scenarios, thickened PVC coating and high-density base fabric will be selected to improve the fabric's tensile resistance and extend the service life of the product.​

Keep away from high temperature fire sources. Although PVC material has certain heat resistance, if it is kept close to high-temperature objects (such as heaters, stoves) or in direct contact with fire sources for a long time, it is prone to softening, melting or even burning. Therefore, it needs to be avoided in high-temperature areas when used. It should also be stored away from flammable and explosive items to avoid safety hazards. If it is used in high-temperature environments (such as covering outdoor equipment in summer), you can choose Qidong Good Tarpaulin PVC fabric with anti-heat aging components - it can customize the fabric formula according to the use temperature range, improve the product's high-temperature resistance, and ensure that it can still maintain a stable protective effect in high-temperature environments.​

Don’t overlook severe weather protection. After heavy rains and snowstorms, it is necessary to clean up the accumulated water and snow on the surface of the tarpaulin in time to avoid water penetration or excessive weight, which may cause the tarpaulin to collapse or be damaged. In low temperature environments in winter, the PVC fabric will become hard and brittle. Do not fold or pull it forcefully at this time to prevent the fabric from cracking. You can place it in a normal temperature environment for a period of time before use, and then operate it after the fabric regains its flexibility. If the product is used in multi-climate areas (such as northern areas that experience high and low temperatures at the same time), Qidong Good Tarpaulin can improve the product's adaptability to extreme climates by optimizing the fabric's anti-aging formula - its more than 20 years of production experience can accurately grasp the impact of different climates on fabrics and reduce fabric aging and damage caused by environmental factors.​

Do not modify the structure at will. Some people will cut and sew tarpaulins by themselves according to their own needs. However, if done improperly, the original waterproof coating and seam structure will be destroyed, resulting in a decrease in waterproofness and durability. If you really need to adjust the size or structure, it is recommended to find a professional to deal with it, or choose Qidong Good Tarpaulin's customization service - its customization service will design a processing plan based on the characteristics of the fabric, such as using heat sealing technology instead of stitching to avoid damaging the waterproof coating, while ensuring that the modified finished product still meets the needs of use. This is also the core advantage of its customized finished products that can adapt to a variety of scenarios.​

4. How to maintain? Extend the service life of Finished PVC Tarpaulin in a few simple steps​

Proper routine maintenance can extend the service life of Finished PVC Tarpaulin by 2-3 years. The maintenance method is simple and easy to operate, and mainly includes cleaning, inspection and storage:​

Cleaning should be prompt and gentle. During use, the surface of the tarpaulin is prone to accumulation of dust, oil, sediment and other debris. If it is not cleaned for a long time, it will corrode the coating and affect the waterproofness. When cleaning, use clean water and a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub. Avoid using strong acid and strong alkali detergents (such as washing powder and dishwashing liquid) to prevent damage to the PVC coating. If there is oil stain, wipe it with a dry cloth first, and then rinse it with clean water to avoid oil stain penetration. After cleaning, do not expose it to the sun. Just place it in a ventilated and cool place to dry naturally. Exposure to the sun will accelerate the aging of the fabric. If you use the finished product of Qidong Good Tarpaulin, its PVC coating is usually treated with cleaning resistance - the coating adhesion will be optimized during the production process, and reasonable cleaning will not affect the waterproof performance, so you can rest assured to maintain it.​

Check key areas regularly. It is recommended to check the tarpaulin once a month, focusing on vulnerable parts such as seams, fixed rope holes, and opening zippers: If the waterproof tape is found to have fallen off at the seams, special PVC waterproof glue can be applied to repair it; if the edges of the rope holes are damaged, a small piece of PVC fabric can be subsidized for reinforcement; when the zipper is stuck or damaged, replace the zipper of the same model in time to avoid affecting the opening and closing. If you find a small area of ​​damage to the fabric (such as a hole less than 5 cm in diameter), you can use a PVC patch to repair it. Make sure the damaged area is clean and dry before repairing. Press for 10-15 minutes after pasting to ensure a firm fit. For companies that use Qidong Good Tarpaulin products in batches, if they find that similar losses occur in multiple products, they can give feedback to their professional team - this team can analyze the causes of the losses, optimize the process of the corresponding parts during subsequent customization, reduce the recurrence of similar problems, and improve the cost-effectiveness of long-term use.​

Store away from moisture and dust. When the tarpaulin is not in use, it must be thoroughly cleaned and dried to avoid storing it with water, which may cause mold growth (mold will form black spots on the surface of the fabric and destroy the coating). Avoid squeezing when folding. You can fold gently according to the fabric texture to reduce creases. You can also roll up the tarpaulin and store it to avoid local fabric aging and cracking caused by long-term folding. Choose a dry, ventilated place without direct sunlight for storage, away from wet corners and sharp objects. You can cover the surface of the tarp with a layer of dust-proof cloth to prevent dust accumulation. If you need to store batches of finished products for a long time, Qidong Good Tarpaulin can provide storage suggestions - it is only an hour's drive from Shanghai, and can also cooperate with convenient logistics services to ship in batches on demand, reducing corporate warehousing pressure and improving supply chain efficiency.
