Exceptionally Strong, Lightweight and Reliable Camo Tarps with Ultrasonic Welded Eyelets. 100% Waterproof and 3 Year UV Guarantee.
Our Camo Tarps 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.
Our Camo Tarps are made from 150 GSM XF Film. This specialised 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.
ARK Camo Tarps 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.
The eyelets on the Camo Tarps are ultrasonically welded onto a sleeve of thick plastic, integrating them into the tarp material for added strength.
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 Camo Tarps offer superior strength and better field performance.
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.

| # | UV RESISTANCE |
|---|---|
| ARK Tarps XF Film | UV inhibitors are incorporated in the raw material blend – 3 Year UV Guarantee |
| Other woven tarps | UV inhibitors are usually applied as a thin surface coating, which wears off faster, reducing long-term sun protection |
| Canvas | Limited UV resistance: typically untreated, which leads to faster degradation in prolonged sun exposure |
| PVC | UV resistant but may degrade over time depending on the thickness and treatment of the PVC coating |
| # | WATERPROOFNESS |
| ARK Tarps XF Film | Raw material is inherently waterproof throughout |
| Other woven tarps | Waterproof coating is applied on the surface, but this thin layer can degrade, leading to reduced water resistance over time |
| Canvas | Water-resistant but not fully waterproof; canvas can absorb water and may require additional treatments to stay water-resistant |
| PVC | Fully waterproof with a thick PVC coating, ideal for heavy-duty outdoor use but prone to cracking in high temperatures |
| # | LONGEVITY |
| ARK Tarps XF Film | Long life as tarp is 100% waterproof and UV resistant through the entire thickness of the product |
| Other woven tarps | Coating wears off, causing cracking and peeling, which leads to shorter lifespan and vulnerability to elements |
| Canvas | Durable but susceptible to mildew, mould, and rot if frequently exposed to moisture, leading to a shorter lifespan |
| PVC | Long-lasting in stable conditions, but coating can crack or peel over time with high exposure to sun and cold |
| # | STRENGTH |
| ARK Tarps XF Film | Layers are laminated in opposing directions creating greater cross directional strength |
| Other woven tarps | Woven in a single-direction weave, which can be inherently weaker and more prone to tearing under stress |
| Canvas | Strong and tear-resistant but less flexible; canvas can rip if punctured or cut, especially after wear |
| PVC | High tensile strength; resistant to tearing but less flexible than XF Film, making it more likely to rip under heavy stress |
| # | EYELETS |
| ARK Tarps XF Film | Ultrasonically welded on a sleeve of thick plastic, making them part of the tarp material |
| Other woven tarps | Rivetted on the tarp making them more vulnerable as they punch through the tarp material causing potential tear points. |
| Canvas | Typically riveted or grommeted; canvas can weaken around eyelets due to fabric tension and moisture absorption |
| PVC | Metal or plastic grommets; more durable than canvas or woven tarps but still prone to pulling out under heavy strain |
| # | MATERIAL & MANUFACTURING PROCESS |
| ARK Tarps XF Film | 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. |
| Other woven tarps | 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. |
| Canvas | 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. |
| PVC | 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 |
| ARK Tarps XF Film | Fully recyclable as made from virgin plastic material, with a focus on UV resistance to prolong lifespan and reduce frequency of replacement. |
| Other woven tarps | Typically, non-recyclable; coatings may degrade faster, requiring more frequent replacement. |
| Canvas | Biodegradable if untreated, but typically treated canvas is less eco-friendly due to waterproofing chemicals. |
| PVC | High environmental impact from PVC production; often non-recyclable and may release chemicals upon disposal. |
ARK Camouflage Tarp is an all-purpose Tarp suitable for:
When using the tarp as a suspended cover we highly recommend that you do the following:
Note – We recommend our stronger grade tarps with stronger eyelets where the tarp is to be used as a suspended roof shelter or where strong pressure will be applied to the corners and side eyelets. The tarpaulin should be roped over to avoid the “parachute effect”. The performance of each tarp varies in accordance with the use and type of install.
Measure the area beforehand and check product dimensions carefully. Sizes listed online are finished sizes in metres. Always consider any overlap needs.
Avoid sharp edges during installation. Get in touch with us for free repair tape. You can also use the following to patch up small tears or punctures: duct tape, PVC tape, speciality tapes such as Duck Gel Tapes or T-Rex waterproofing tapes or super glue can also be used. Ensure the area is clean and dry prior to any patch being applied.
We don't usually recommend this as modifications to the tarp will void the warranty. However, if you would like to seal two pieces together, then you can heat seal it by melting the plastic or using a heat-sealing machine.
Use appropriate ropes or bungees through eyelets. Check for loose connections due to weather. Ensure rope is applied on top of the tarp to prevent the parachute effect.
Check all the eyelets on the tarp are secure for even load distribution. Ensure that there is no water pooling and adding weight to the eyelets. Also make sure ropes/straps are applied across the top of the tarp to prevent the parachute effect. Get in touch with us for tarp clips to replace any broken or torn eyelets.
This is normal and can occur when the tarp is being used. The eyelets on the tarp are plastic welded and then plated with an aluminium ring. The aluminium rings are pressed on top of the plastic welded eyelets and can sometimes come loose. The tarp can continue to be used and will perform using the plastic eyelet without the aluminium ring.

The Camouflage Tarp is an All Purpose Tarp suitable for:
Camo Tarps are made from 150 GSM / 160 Micron – Swiss patented XF Film.
What’s that green strip in the Camo Tarps?
The green strip is where the tarp is heat sealed. During production we have to leave a blank area to heat seal the tarp as we cannot run a hot seal on a printed area because it will run/melt the print.
