In the market for tarpaulins many products are offered based on tarp weight. Since there is a significant difference in weight per size, we only offer our products based on fabric weight. The weight difference is caused by the seam, hem, inserted rope, eyelets, leaflet and polybag. The smaller the size the bigger the difference between fabric and tarp weight.

With a fabric weight of e.g. 100 g/m² the difference in tarp weight between 2m x 3m and 10m x 12m is close to 8%.

In our Know How PDF-document “Fabric Weight & Tarp Weight” you find an explicit clarification.
