The AtlasShield® 18 oz White Fire Retardant Vinyl Tarp is built to NFPA 701 certification standards — not as an upgrade, but standard on every tarp we ship. If you're covering equipment in a petroleum facility, enclosing a scaffold at a refinery, or meeting fire code requirements on a DOT job site, this is the tarp that gets specified. Built from 18 oz PVC-coated polyester with 22-mil fabric thickness, rust-proof stainless steel grommets, and heat-welded seams — fabricated factory-direct in the USA with no distributor markup. Available in 7 colors and over 50 standard sizes; custom fabrication to order.

Product Specifications

Who Specifies This Tarp

• Petroleum & petrochemical facilities — NFPA 701 compliance for equipment enclosures, scaffold curtains, and turnaround containment in hot work zones
• Refineries & chemical plants — fire code-compliant covers for pipe racks, vessels, and staging areas where open-flame work occurs nearby
• DOT & highway contractors — fire-rated tarps for job sites requiring FR certification under OSHA 29 CFR 1926 hot work provisions
• Food production & pharmaceutical facilities — white reflective surface with FR certification for clean-room adjacent staging and equipment protection
• Event & tent rental companies — meets venue and city fire marshal FR requirements for temporary structure liners and ground covers

Why AtlasShield® Outperforms Distributor Brands

• Rust-Proof Stainless Steel Grommets — Not Brass. Our spur stainless steel grommets will never corrode, rust, or fail. Competitors use brass grommets that corrode over time and seize under load.
• 2" Heavy-Duty Webbing Sewn Into Every Edge. Reinforced with 2" sewn webbing on all sides — competitors only double-stitch the fabric hem.
• NFPA 701 Certified — Standard, Not an Upgrade. Every tarp ships FR-certified at no extra charge. Most competitors charge a premium or don't offer FR at all.
• 22 Mil Fabric Thickness. 10% thicker than the 20 mil tarps sold by competing distributors.
• Fabricated in the USA. Every tarp is cut, sewn, and finished in our own Louisiana facility — not outsourced.
