Heavy-duty polyester tarpaulin, PVC-coated both sides. UV additives, anti-fungal treatment. 3m wide. Ice Blue.
What is PVC Grain Cover 700gsm?
PVC Grain Cover 700gsm is a high-tenacity polyester tarpaulin, coated on both sides with PVC, in a plain weave construction. It is designed for grain storage, heavy-duty agricultural and industrial tarpaulin applications requiring UV resistance and anti-fungal protection.
At 3m wide, covers can be fabricated with minimal seaming. The PVC construction is RF weldable. Ultraviolet additives protect the coating from degradation, and an anti-fungal treatment resists mould and mildew during prolonged outdoor exposure.

Why Choose PVC Grain Cover 700gsm
UV Additives
Ultraviolet additives protect the PVC coating and base fabric from UV degradation, extending working life in full sun exposure.
Anti-Fungal Treatment
Resists mould and mildew during prolonged outdoor use – important for grain and crop storage where contamination risk must be controlled.
Waterproof Construction
PVC-coated on both sides for full waterproofing. Prevents moisture from passing through to stored grain or materials below.
3m Wide Roll
The 3m roll width reduces the number of seams required for large covers, simplifying fabrication and improving cover integrity.
RF Weldable
The PVC construction supports radio frequency welding, enabling strong factory-grade heat-sealed seams on custom-fabricated covers.
Cut Lengths Available
Order the exact length required. No minimum order – cut lengths or 50m full rolls available from Midrand stock.
PVC Grain Cover FAQ
What is PVC Grain Cover 700gsm?
PVC Grain Cover 700gsm is a heavy-duty tarpaulin made from high-tenacity polyester yarn, PVC-coated on both sides in a plain weave construction. Designed for grain storage, agricultural covering, and industrial outdoor protection.
What colour is PVC Grain Cover available in?
Ice Blue only.
What width is the PVC Grain Cover?
3m wide. Available in cut lengths or 50m full rolls from Midrand stock.
Is PVC Grain Cover waterproof?
Yes. PVC-coated on both sides, preventing moisture from passing through.
Does it have UV protection?
Yes. Ultraviolet additives are incorporated into the PVC coating to resist UV degradation during extended outdoor exposure.
Is it mould and mildew resistant?
Yes. An anti-fungal treatment resists mould and mildew growth – important for grain and agricultural storage applications.
Can it be RF welded?
Yes. The PVC construction supports radio frequency (RF) welding for strong heat-sealed seams on fabricated covers.
What is the tensile strength?
Minimum 2,000 N/50mm warp direction (WMD) and minimum 1,700 N/50mm weft direction (AMD), tested to BS 3424.4.
Can I order cut lengths?
Yes. No minimum order. Cut lengths and 50m full rolls available from our Midrand warehouse.
Joining or repairing this material? A welded seam is fused and stays waterproof. A sewn seam is easier to repair, but every needle hole is a hole.
