FAQs

What is the thickness of this plastic sheeting?

How is the sheeting shipped?

Sizes up to 3m long are typically sent folded. All sizes larger than 3m are sent as rolls.

Can this be used for pond liners?

While durable, this sheeting is not specifically designed or rated as a pond liner and may not be suitable for long-term submersion or containing potable water.

Is the black color suitable for growing plants directly under it?

The black color is effective for suppressing weeds and warming soil. If used as a cover for growing plants, ensure adequate light penetration or consider alternative methods.

It protects against wind, rain, and can act as a barrier for weed suppression, insulation, and general covering.

Where is this product manufactured?

This plastic sheeting is manufactured in the UK.

Can it be used for temporary window repairs?

Troubleshooting

Sheeting tears easily

Ensure sharp objects are kept away from the sheeting. Reinforce corners or high-stress areas with tape if needed. Check that the gauge is appropriate for the intended load.

Water pooling on top

Ensure the sheeting is laid with a slight slope to allow water to run off. Secure edges properly to prevent water accumulation.

Difficulty unfolding larger rolls

Lay the roll on a flat surface and carefully unroll it. Having a second person can assist in managing the size and weight.
