The Benefits Of Using Our Trailer Covers

Exceptionally strong, lightweight, and reliable, our trailer covers are designed to endure Australia’s toughest weather conditions, from scorching sun to heavy rain. They feature ultrasonic welded eyelets and a back zipper, ensuring 100% waterproof protection for the life of the cover, plus a 3-year UV guarantee for added durability.

100% Waterproof

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

XF Film - Swiss Patented Film

Our Trailer Covers are made from XF Film. This specialised Swiss-patented film ensures exceptional strength, durability, and reliability. Our unique manufacturing process sets our covers apart from anything else in the industry.

UV Resistant - 3 Year Guarantee

ARK Trailer 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 Trailer Covers are ultrasonically welded onto a sleeve of thick plastic, integrating them into the cover 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 Trailer Covers offer superior strength and better field performance. This superior strength translates to excellent weather resistance, protecting your trailer from wind, rain, and debris during transit and storage.

Backed By Australian Lab Tests

All our covers 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.

Tips & Tricks

When using the trailer cover we highly recommend that you do the following:

  1. Ensure that all the eyelets are secured to the trailer
  2. Rope is applied across the cover. It is best to put a rope across the length and width of the cover to protect the cover and ensure the wind doesn’t blow it away
  3. Allow for water to run off from the cover and not pool in the middle. The water will not cause any leaks, but the pooling will add extra weight and strain to the corners of the cover
  4. Don’t force the zips across a wide gap as it can damage the zips
  5. For maximum weather protection, ensure the cover is taut when secured. This prevents water pooling and reduces wind resistance.

Note – The performance of each trailer cover varies in accordance with the use and type of install. The trailer cover should be roped over to avoid the “parachute effect” and protected from sharp objects & edges.

The ARK Difference

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.

FAQs

1. What material is the trailer cover made from?

Our Trailer Covers are made from a specialised film called XF Film ensuring UV protection, durability and strength.

2. Are the trailer covers fully enclosed?

Yes, we have designed our Trailer Covers for cage trailers and the covers are fully enclosed. Each side of the cover is heat welded ensuring that there are no leaks, and it
acts like a fully enclosed sleeve for your cage trailer.

3. Does the trailer cover come with any zips?

The Trailer Covers have 2 zips in the back. These can be used to open the back flap of the cover to get access to the trailer.

4. What sizes are available for the Trailer Covers?

We offer a variety of sizes to suit standard trailer cages ranging from 6ft x 4ft going all the way to 8ft x 5ft. Check out our sizing table to find the right cover for your trailer.

5. What colour options can I get with trailer covers

The Trailer Covers come in a black colour.

6. How do I secure the trailer cover?

Each trailer cover comes with 20 tie down points. These are provided through the ultrasonically welded eyelets along the bottom of the cover. We would recommend putting bungee cords, ropes or shock cords through the eyelets of the cover and securing them to your trailer bars. In addition to this, it is very important that you apply ropes across the top of the cover to secure the cover while driving with it on.

7. Is there any flexibility in the cover size? For instance, my trailer dimensions are 225 x 132 x 62 cm, while your cover measures 220 x 130 x 65 cm. Will this fit?

Our Trailer Covers are designed with a bit of extra allowance to fit most standard cages comfortably. As a general guideline, the covers have a margin of +5% from the listed size. So, a 220cm cover would have enough margin to stretch till about 230cm.

Additionally, we offer a 30-day change-of-mind refund policy. If the trailer cover doesn’t fit, simply contact us to return it for a refund, as long as it meets our return conditions.

8. Can I drive with the cover on the trailer?

Yes, you can drive with the cover on the trailer provided you have properly secured the cover. This includes putting ropes across the width and length of the cover to prevent it from catching wind or getting damaged.

9. Can I order a custom-sized Trailer Cover?

We do offer custom sizes for bulk orders only. Contact our sales team to discuss your specific size requirements.

10. Do the Trailer Covers come with a warranty?

Yes, all our covers come with a 3-year warranty. Please refer to our warranty policy for detailed information.

11. Can I use these trailer covers for purposes other than trailers?

While designed specifically for trailers, these covers can also be used to protect other equipment or vehicles, such as ATVs, or lawnmowers.

12. How long does delivery take?

Delivery times depend on your location. We aim to dispatch all our orders within 1 business day from our warehouse in Melbourne. Please refer to our delivery/postage section for a rough guide on delivery times.

13. How does the Trailer Cover protect against different weather conditions?

Our Trailer Covers offer comprehensive weather protection. They’re 100% waterproof, UV-resistant for 3 years, wind-resistant when properly secured, and provide a barrier against dust and debris. The multi-layered construction also helps insulate against temperature extremes.

Warranty Policy

Standard covers come with a 12 months manufacturer’s warranty and a 3-year UV guarantee on cover fabric.

Premium covers come with a 3 year manufacturer’s warranty and a 3-year UV guarantee on cover fabric.
