📝 Description

ARK Roof Tarps are purpose‑built for construction sites, emergency repairs and long‑term outdoor protection. Designed with tradespeople in mind, they combine exceptional strength with a lightweight, easy‑to‑handle build — making them ideal for roofing, scaffolding, temporary shelters and large‑area coverage.

Made from 200 GSM Swiss‑patented XF Film, these tarps deliver outstanding tear and puncture resistance. The cross‑laminated film construction provides multi‑directional strength, outperforming traditional woven poly tarps on rough surfaces, sharp edges and high‑pressure environments.

Each tarp is born waterproof, with waterproofing built into the raw materials rather than applied as a coating. This ensures reliable protection during heavy rain, storms and long‑term outdoor exposure.

To withstand Australia’s harsh UV conditions, ARK Roof Tarps are fully UV‑stabilised and backed by a 3‑year UV guarantee. They won’t peel, crack or degrade under prolonged sunlight, making them suitable for extended projects.

For secure installation, every tarp features ultrasonically welded eyelets integrated into a reinforced sleeve, creating strong anchor points that resist tearing in high‑wind or high‑load situations.

The dual‑colour design — black on one side and silver on the other — offers flexibility for heat reflection or absorption depending on the application.

Available in a wide range of sizes, including large single‑piece tarps up to 20m x 30m, ARK Roof Tarps eliminate weak points and ensure consistent strength across the entire surface. All tarps are backed by Australian lab testing for proven performance and compliance.

Ideal for:

Roof protection & emergency repairs
Scaffolding & construction coverage
Temporary shelters & shade structures
Equipment, materials & vehicle protection
Long‑term outdoor storage

ARK Roof Tarps deliver the strength, durability and reliability required for demanding worksites and harsh Australian conditions.

⭐ Features

Industry Knowledge

Large Sizes in Stock

ARK Roof Tarps come in a variety of sizes, with large sizes available as a single piece. This eliminates breaks or weak points in the tarp. We stock sizes up to 20m x 30m, ensuring a 1‑business‑day turnaround for your applications.

100% Waterproof

ARK Roof Tarps are born waterproof. The raw materials used in their production are waterproof, ensuring that each layer provides complete waterproof protection. Unlike other tarps that rely on thin coatings, our tarps offer full waterproofing throughout.

XF Film – Swiss Patented Film

ARK Roof Tarps are made from 200 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.

UV Resistant – 3 Year Guarantee

ARK Roof 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.

Dual Colour

ARK Roof Tarps are black on one side and silver on the other. Both sides are UV protected and can be used facing the sun. The silver side reflects heat, while the black side absorbs heat.

Ultrasonic Welded Eyelets

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

Strong & Reliable

During manufacturing, the layers of raw material are laminated in opposing directions, creating greater cross‑directional strength. Unlike standard poly tarps woven in a single direction, ARK Roof Tarps offer superior strength and better field performance.

Backed by Australian Lab Tests

All our tarps are tested to meet various Australian standards. We control the entire production process from start to finish, ensuring all quality and compliance checks are met before the product reaches your hands.

Troubleshooting Guide for Common Tarp Issues

Select a topic below to view the advice.

Tarp doesn’t fit the intended area

Measure the area beforehand and check product dimensions carefully. Sizes listed online are finished sizes in metres. Always consider any overlap needs.

Small tears or punctures

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.
Ensure the area is clean and dry prior to any patch being applied.

Request Free Repair Tape

Seal two tarp pieces together

We don’t usually recommend this as modifications to the tarp will void the warranty.
If you would like to seal two pieces together, you can heat seal it by melting the plastic or using a heat-sealing machine.

Tarp not staying secured

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.

Tarp eyelets tearing

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.
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.

Eyelet aluminium plating coming out

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.
