Flame Retardant Poly Tarps

About

Our Flame Retardant Poly Tarps are made in the USA from 3-ply woven reinforced polyethylene at a true 11–12 mil thickness. They are flame retardant, waterproof, and UV-coated on both sides — the lightweight, economical fire retardant tarp option for jobs where a fire-rated cover is required but a heavy vinyl tarp is more than you need. Finished in off-white with rustproof grommets approximately every 2 ft on all four sides, they ship in sizes from 6′ × 8′ up to 100′ × 100′. What Is a Flame Retardant Poly Tarp? A flame retardant poly tarp is a polyethylene tarp treated so it resists ignition and is self-extinguishing — it slows and stops flame spread rather than feeding it. It is flame/fire retardant, not fireproof : it will not survive direct, sustained flame, but it meets the fire-rated requirement common on construction sites, in venues, and around equipment. It is the poly (plastic) alternative to heavier fire retardant vinyl tarps.

The main fire retardant decision is poly vs vinyl. FR poly is lighter and far
