Tarps are used in many various places for many different reasons. Usually, the first thing that comes to mind is of a solid covering or protective blanket like those on truck beds, in lumber yards and many other industrial places. But did you know that there are places where a mesh tarp is needed?
Mesh tarps can be used to block sunlight while still allowing cool breezes to come through. They are still waterproof and all, but they are breathable. Perhaps you have been to a tennis court where the fencing sides are covered in green mesh. That is a mesh tarp and this is but one use for mesh tarps.
They can also be used for patio covers at home, as a privacy barrier on a fence or even as a tent or covering for family get gatherings and activities. Among the many other uses for mesh tarps are:
o Baseball fields. Enclose your batting cages for privacy. Use them as a backdrop for home plate or along the outfield fences.
o As shade tarps wherever direct sunlight is a problem.
o As a site barrier or crowd control aid.
o As a weather barrier for construction sites so that a breeze can blow through while keeping the workers out of the sun.
o As a wind breaker anywhere.
o Many other uses are possible as well...
Mesh tarps are extremely affordable and easy to come by. Custom sizes can be ordered almost anywhere tarps are sold. If durability is a concern, put it aside. Mesh tarps are rip and tear resistant, too. If they do become damaged, ripped, torn or whatever, they can be easily repaired or even replaced quickly.
The material is a polyethylene that is waterproof and weatherproof. You can put them up and leave them with no worries about rotting or becoming waterlogged. Most mesh tarps provide upwards of 85% protection from the sun, so the kiddies won't get sunburned in the sandbox. A feature called Arctic flexibility keeps a mesh tarp manageable in cold weather, too.
All quality mesh tarps are lightweight and can be handled by a single person. Rope reinforced edges and metal tether rings are included about every 18" to 24" on all sides. This allows the tarp to be tied off to anything, anywhere, any time. Talk about versatility!
In an industrial application, they are unbeatable for covering loads of sand, gravel or other items that water can't harm. The mesh construction lets air in but keeps debris off of the material. Your load arrives clean and debris free.
Mesh tarps can be purchased in several colors including black (coverings and shade applications), green (garden and agricultural uses) and desert camouflage (military uses). The one fitting your situation depends on your taste and need. Affordability, versatility and protection unequalled make mesh tarps worth the look and well worth your consideration.
Almost any size can be sewn to order. Just make sure you know the size of the area you are protecting and what you are protecting it from to select the proper mesh tarp for your needs.
