Frequently Asked Questions
Containment Berm Ground Tarp Plus, 12x32'
How heavy is this tarp?
The 12x32 ft. Ground Tarp Plus weighs 79 lbs. Two people are recommended for deployment.
Is this thicker than standard ground tarps?
Yes. At 130 mil, this polypropylene tarp is significantly thicker and more puncture-resistant than standard polyester blended PVC ground tarps.
Can I overlap two Plus tarps for a longer berm?
Yes. Overlap tarps by at least 1 ft. at the seam to ensure continuous ground protection. For longer runs, consider the 12x52 or 12x62 ft. sizes instead.
What color is this tarp?
Dark gray. The color helps hide dirt and makes it easier to inspect for puncture damage compared to black tarps.
Do I need a ground tarp under my berm?
A ground tarp is highly recommended for any berm placed on rough surfaces like gravel, broken asphalt, or rocky ground. The tarp protects the berm liner from punctures and abrasion that can cause leaks. It also provides an additional barrier between contained liquids and the ground in case of liner damage.
