Heavy Duty 17oz Ripstop Canvas Tarp Waterproof Cotton Duck Tarpaulin Sheet

 Heavy Duty 17oz Ripstop Canvas Tarp Waterproof Cotton Duck Tarpaulin Sheet

Our Ripstop Canvas Tarpaulins are woven from a heavyweight cotton blend incorporating polyester yarn — a construction specifically designed to localise any tears and prevent them from spreading. Starting at 15oz in its untreated state, the fabric reaches 17oz once proofed, delivering a robust and reliable cover that's noticeably lighter and easier to handle than traditional wax-processed canvas. Imported from India to our specification.

Ripstop Construction — Built to Resist Damage

The polyester yarn woven through the cotton base creates a reinforced grid structure that contains tears at their source. Where standard canvas can run and split under stress, ripstop fabric holds — making these tarpaulins a practical choice for demanding applications where durability and ease of use both matter.

Chemically Treated for Water Resistance

Rather than a heavy wax finish, these tarps are chemically treated to achieve water resistance. The result is a tarpaulin that repels rain effectively without the stiff, heavy feel of wax-proofed alternatives. Lighter in hand and easier to fold, store, and deploy — without compromising on weather protection.
