Expert Insights

This is the bulk roll for large-scale and permanent installations. At 1,130 lbs, this roll requires a forklift or similar equipment for handling and deployment. The 450-foot continuous length can be cut to size on-site for custom berm configurations or deployed as a continuous corridor for vehicle decontamination operations. The 130 mil polypropylene provides the same extreme puncture resistance as the shorter Plus tarps. Common applications include military decon corridors, hazmat response staging areas, and permanent wash rack installations. Cut sections from the roll as needed to eliminate waste compared to buying multiple pre-cut sizes.

Do I need a ground tarp under my berm?
