At 180gsm it carries noticeably more substance than the 100–150gsm tarps sold as \"heavy duty\" in most hardware aisles, and the difference shows up exactly where tarps normally fail: at the eyelets, along the edges, and after a season of sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy silver on one side and black on the other\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two faces do different jobs, and which way up you run it matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilver side up\u003c\/strong\u003e reflects heat and sunlight away. This is what you want covering machinery, a woodpile, a boat, stacked gear or anything you'd rather keep cool underneath — and it's the orientation that gives the fabric the longest life, because it throws UV back rather than absorbing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlack side up\u003c\/strong\u003e absorbs heat instead.

UV-stabilised so it resists the fade-and-crack cycle that ends most tarps prematurely in Australian conditions, and rated for both high heat and deep cold. Mildew-resistant, so storing it damp won't ruin it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEdges and corners are reinforced, with aluminium eyelets at 0.9m intervals for tie-downs close enough together to hold real tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 180gsm high-density polyethylene (PE), double-coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heat-reflective silver one face, heat-absorbing black the other\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaterproof:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, fully\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV-resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, UV-stabilised for extended outdoor exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMildew-resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdges:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reinforced edges and corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEyelets:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminium, reinforced, at 0.9m intervals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nine, from 3.0m x 3.6m up to 9.0m x 12.0m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMachinery and equipment covers, trailer and ute loads, hay and firewood stacks, boats and trailers, temporary roof protection, camping ground sheets and shelters, shade and windbreaks at camp, and covering building materials on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your size\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure what you're covering and allow 300–500mm of overhang on each side for tie-downs.
