Exceptionally Strong, Lightweight and Reliable. Our Heavy Duty & Extra Heavy Tarps are the perfect solution for Caravan Covers, with Ultrasonic Welded Eyelets, 100 % Waterproof for Life and 3 Year UV Guarantee.

100% Waterproof

Our Caravan Covers are born waterproof. The raw materials used in their production are waterproof, ensuring that each layer of our tarps provides complete waterproof protection. Unlike other tarps, which often have only a thin, water-resistant coating applied after manufacturing, our tarps offer full waterproofing throughout.

XF Film - Swiss Patented Film

Our Caravan Covers are made from XF Film. This specialized Swiss-patented film ensures exceptional strength, durability, and reliability. Our unique manufacturing process sets our tarps apart from anything else in the industry. You can learn more about the XF Film and our production process here.

UV Resistant - 3 Year Guarantee

ARK Caravan Covers offer excellent UV resistance and come with a 3-year UV guarantee. Designed for extended outdoor use, they will not peel, crack, or disintegrate under harsh sunlight, making them ideal for Australia's extreme weather conditions.

Ultrasonic Welded Eyelets

The eyelets on the Caravan Covers are ultrasonically welded onto a sleeve of thick plastic, integrating them into the tarp material for added strength.

Strong & Reliable

During our manufacturing process, the layers of raw material are laminated in opposing directions, creating greater cross-directional strength. Unlike normal poly tarps that are typically woven in a single direction, ARK Caravan Covers offer superior strength and better field performance.

Backed By Australian Lab Tests

All our tarps have been tested to meet various Australian standards. When we say our covers are tried and tested, we mean it. We control the entire production process from start to finish, ensuring all quality and compliance checks are met before the product reaches your hands.

Why Our Tarps Stand Out

	ARK TARP – XF FILM	OTHER WOVEN TARPS	CANVAS TARPS	PVC TARPS
UV resistance	UV inhibitors are incorporated in the raw material blend - 3 Year UV Guarantee	UV inhibitors are usually applied as a thin surface coating, which wears off faster, reducing long-term sun protection	Limited UV resistance: typically untreated, which leads to faster degradation in prolonged sun exposure	UV resistant but may degrade over time depending on the thickness and treatment of the PVC coating
Waterproofness	Raw material is inherently waterproof throughout	Waterproof coating is applied on the surface, but this thin layer can degrade, leading to reduced water resistance over time	Water-resistant but not fully waterproof; canvas can absorb water and may require additional treatments to stay water-resistant	Fully waterproof with a thick PVC coating, ideal for heavy-duty outdoor use but prone to cracking in high temperatures
Longevity	Long life as tarp is 100% waterproof and UV resistant through the entire thickness of the product	Coating wears off, causing cracking and peeling, which leads to shorter lifespan and vulnerability to elements	Durable but susceptible to mildew, mould, and rot if frequently exposed to moisture, leading to a shorter lifespan	Long-lasting in stable conditions, but coating can crack or peel over time with high exposure to sun and cold
Strength	Layers are laminated in opposing directions creating greater cross directional strength	Woven in a single-direction weave, which can be inherently weaker and more prone to tearing under stress	Strong and tear-resistant but less flexible; canvas can rip if punctured or cut, especially after wear	High tensile strength; resistant to tearing but less flexible than XF Film, making it more likely to rip under heavy stress
Eyelets	Ultrasonically welded on a sleeve of thick plastic, making them part of the tarp material	Rivetted on the tarp making them more vulnerable as they punch through the tarp material causing potential tear points.	Typically riveted or grommeted; canvas can weaken around eyelets due to fabric tension and moisture absorption	Metal or plastic grommets; more durable than canvas or woven tarps but still prone to pulling out under heavy strain
Material Composition & Manufacturing Process	Constructed from multiple cross-laminated layers with UV inhibitors and waterproofing embedded in the raw material. Layers are laminated in opposing directions, enhancing cross-directional strength and resistance to tearing.	Made by weaving polyethylene or polypropylene threads in a pattern, then coated with a thin layer of poly material for added strength. Coatings are often thin and may wear off over time.	Woven from thick natural cotton or synthetic polyester fibers in a tight weave; often treated with wax or waterproofing agents to resist water and UV exposure.	Produced from synthetic PVC (polyvinyl chloride) layers laminated over a woven polyester scrim. The PVC is coated and heat-sealed or welded for waterproofing, though high temperatures can affect flexibility and longevity.
Environmental Considerations	Fully recyclable as made from virgin plastic material, with a focus on UV resistance to prolong lifespan and reduce frequency of replacement	Typically, non-recyclable; coatings may degrade faster, requiring more frequent replacement	Biodegradable if untreated, but typically treated canvas is less eco-friendly due to waterproofing chemicals	High environmental impact from PVC production; often non-recyclable and may release chemicals upon disposal.

Product arrived in good order and as described therefore quality is high rating.
Unfortunately it didn’t serve the purpose I intended it for, i.e to cover a retro 10ft 1972 caravan with curved roof, not a pop top. Intention was to cover front and sides to protect from the elements but due to the curvature of the van and the tarp oblong shape there was to much overhang around the van to securely tie down to prevent wind damage to the tarp over time. Not the manufacturing or suppliers fault, I endeavored to try another product from the cloth covers which I found start to disintegrate after 1 – 2 summers.

The tarp arrived in good order , it is light but strong and at this stage is handling the sharp points on my van, has been on for 12 days in mostly 15 to 30 kmh wind makes a bit of noise but dont they all, the solar panel is covered but after 12 days in QLd sun the battery is fully charged so maybe enough light is getting in – that will be a bonus, so far so good

The tarp was delivered in good condition and is the correct size. I have only seen woven tarps before never seen this type of material to me its like a thick plastic film. I have used mini ratchet straps to secure it in place and so far these seem to do a good job in keeping it firmly in place when it is windy. The only thing that is missing is a removable panel (zipper or Velcro) where the door is so I can access the inside of the caravan without undoing several of the tie downs. It has a 3 year warranty and if it lasts the duration I’ll be happy. I would recommend this product.

Caravan Tarp Applications

ARK Caravan Tarp is suitable for:

Wrapping the caravan to protect it
Temporary caravan roof
Suspending over the caravan
Caravan annex

Tips & Tricks

When using the tarp as a suspended cover we highly recommend that you do the following:

Ensure that all the eyelets are secured to distribute the load on the tarp evenly
Rope is applied across the top of the tarp to prevent the tarp from becoming a parachute against the wind. In doing so tie a rope to every eyelet, passing it over the tarpaulin to the opposite eyelet tying the rope slightly shorter than the tarpaulin at that eyelet
Allow for water to run off from the tarp and not pool in the middle. The water will not cause any leaks, but the pooling will add extra weight and strain to the eyelets. Once the tarp has been set up, you can pour some water over it to ensure that there is enough slope provided for the water to run off
