| # | 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. |
