SIC Code 2394-07 - Tarpaulins (Manufacturing)

Tarpaulins manufacturing is a specialized industry that involves the production of heavy-duty, waterproof fabrics that are used for a variety of purposes. These fabrics are typically made from materials such as canvas, polyester, vinyl, or polyethylene, and are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions and heavy use. Tarpaulins are used in a wide range of industries, including construction, agriculture, transportation, and outdoor recreation. The manufacturing process for tarpaulins involves a range of specialized equipment and techniques. The first step is to select the appropriate materials for the specific application, which may involve choosing the right type of fabric, coating, or reinforcement. The materials are then cut to size and sewn together using heavy-duty sewing machines. The seams are reinforced with additional stitching or heat sealing to ensure maximum durability and waterproofing. Once the tarpaulin is assembled, it may be finished with additional features such as grommets, zippers, or Velcro closures. These features allow the tarpaulin to be secured in place and provide easy access to the contents underneath. Finally, the tarpaulin is inspected for quality and packaged for shipment to customers.
