IFRC / ICRC
| Size: | 4×6 m or roll of 60 meters (4×60 m); variation (+/-2%) |
| Weight, Sheet Specific Excluding Bands Weight: | 180g/m² ± 30g under ISO 3801; + add 10% band weight. |
| Effective Area: | 24 sq.m or rolls of 240 sq.m |
| Material: | Woven high density polyethylene(HDPE)black fibres,Fabric laminated on both sides with low density polyethylene (LDPE)coating,Reinforced with 6 bands of 7.5cm width made of woven black HDPE fibres and coated outside,Position of the bands as per the drawing. |
| Tensile Strength in Plain Sheet: | Minimum 50DaN and 15% to 25% elongation in warp and weft outside of the reinforcement bands under ISO1421,Minimum 70 DaN inside of the reinforcement bands as per ISO1421 plus the additional procedure. |
| Tensile Strength in Reinforcement Bands: | Minimum 700N inside the reinforcement bands as per ISO 1421-1 plus the additional procedure describing the hook test. |
| Tear Strength: | Minimum 100N under ISO 4674 (A2) outside of the reinforcement. |
| Welding: | Only one welding allowed, in the middle of the sheet, length wise. Minimum resistance is 80% of the original tarpaulin tensile strength crossways under ISO 1421-1. |
| UV Resistance: | Maximum 5% loss on original tarpaulin tensile strength under ISO 1421-1 after 1500 hours UV under ASTM G53/94 (UVB 313 nm peak), to be tested outside and inside the reinforcement bands. |
| Resistance to Temperature: | Resistant from -20 to +80℃ |
| Features: | Water, rot and soil fauna resistant, long life outdoor use in all climate. |
| Flammability: | Flash point above 200 ℃. |
| Color: | White sun reflective both sides, grey bands. Inner black fibers to ensure opacity. |
| Bands: | The sheet is with bands so no logos are required. |
