Tarps: A Durable Cover.

Using sticks or poles to build a simple tent can use tarps from CanopiesAndTarps.com to create a shelter. Tarps, also known as tarpaulin, have a variety of different applications in almost any sphere of life like from camping and other recreational activities to disaster relief. If a home is partially damaged after a storm or other natural disaster, tarps can be used to protect the area from wind and rain in place of a roof or walls allowing a family or individual to continue using the damaged part of the home until proper repairs can be made.

It can also be wrapped over a vehicle to make a shelter that combines the interior of the vehicle. Tarps can be used to construct a temporary shelter for a small group of people to keep them protected from the elements until a better living situation is available.

At CanopiesAndTarps.com you can find tarps in various sizes and colors depending on your need. Our tarps are made from fireproof, waterproof, and UVI resistant fabrics certified by the California State Marshall. We have organized the products by their type for your shopping ease. Browse our website to view color graphics showing samples and prices.

Tent Tarps For Camping.




Tarps are a great choice for temporary protection. The poly tarp material is naturally waterproof and contains grommets every 18 inches, which makes securing the cover easy. In this video Sean Mulhall, gives detailed instructions on how to use a tarp as a tent while camping. Tarpaulins are made of lightweight material and can be folded to fit in small back pack compartments or even rolled up with a blanket and then packed. Once a desirable location has been chosen, all you need to set up your tarp tent is a couple of trees, some bungee chords and some branches off the ground. The most common size tarp used for this application is the 8 x 10 but an even larger tarp can be used if a larger coverage area is needed for multiple campers. The camouflage tarp is the perfect tent tarp as it blends into the natural environment. Watch this video tutorial titled “Tarp Sleep System”.
