Professional evaluation data interpretation: Customized color flame-retardant and waterproof PVC truck tarpaulin

This product adopts a composite process of high-strength polyester base fabric and functional PVC coating, specially developed for outdoor transportation protection. According to authoritative laboratory testing, the flame retardant performance reaches EN 13501-1 B-S1, d0 level, the limit oxygen index (LOI) is ≥ 30%, and it will extinguish automatically upon ignition. Hydrostatic pressure value ≥ 5000mm (ISO 811), to ensure that the continuous rainstorm environment is completely waterproof. The tear resistance strength measured in the warp/weft direction is ≥ 550N/5cm, and it can withstand frequent friction and pulling during transportation. Color customization: After 500 hours of xenon lamp aging, the color difference Δ E is ≤ 3 (ISO 105-B02), and the outdoor color remains excellent. Tested for crack free bending at -25 ℃, suitable for transportation environments in all seasons.

Customized color flame-retardant and waterproof PVC truck tarpaulin selection guide

1. Flame retardant rating and safety verification
It is necessary to verify the official certification report of EN 13501-1 B-S1, d0 level (or equivalent), and confirm that the limit oxygen index (LOI) is ≥ 30%. Ordinary flame-retardant coating products are prone to performance degradation after friction or washing, while intrinsic flame-retardant materials are more reliable.
2. Color customization and weather resistance
Request to provide testing data with a color difference Δ E ≤ 3 after 500 hours of xenon lamp aging to ensure that the customized color does not fade outdoors for a long time. At the same time, it is necessary to confirm that the color fastness is ≥ level 6 (ISO 105-B02) to avoid color changes caused by ultraviolet radiation.
3. Waterproof and mechanical strength indicators
Verify the hydrostatic pressure value (recommended ≥ 5000mm) and tear resistance strength (warp/weft ≥ 500N/5cm). According to the transportation route climate, confirm that the material has passed the -25 ℃ low-temperature bending test. Attention should also be paid to the peel strength (recommended ≥ 90N/5cm) to ensure that the coating does not separate during repeated folding friction.

Q: How does this custom colored tarpaulin maintain its color during long-term outdoor transportation?
Answer: The color expression is very stable. Our fleet has been using this customized blue tarpaulin for over 18 months, experiencing high-intensity sun and rain exposure. After testing with a colorimeter, the Δ E value only changed by 2.7, fully meeting its commitment of ≤ 3. The vehicle brand color has always remained consistent.
Q: Is the flame retardant performance reliable in real environments?
Answer: Very reliable. During a transportation trip, a roadside fire broke out and sparks splashed onto the surface of the tarpaulin. The material quickly dissipated from the fire and extinguished itself, leaving only slight burn marks without spreading. This validates the actual protective value of its EN 13501-1 B-S1, d0 flame retardant standard.
Q: Is the waterproof effect lasting in rainstorm weather?
Answer: Completely reliable. The goods covered with tarpaulin have been kept dry for two consecutive weeks due to heavy to rainstorm during trans provincial transportation. After random inspection, its static water pressure value remains stable at over 5000mm without any leakage points, proving that its waterproof performance can withstand the test of time.
