General Description:
Plastic Tarpaulins Roll/Sheet(4x50m) Palletised / Non - Palletised

Note: Country office to indicate wheather they want the bales with tarpaulins to be palletised or non palletised

Technical Specifications:
TARPAULIN 4x50m
Material: Made of woven high-density black polyethylene (HDPE) fibers, warp x weft, laminated on both sides with low density polyethylene (LDPE) coating, with reinforced rims by heat sealing on all sides, (or 2 sides heat sealing and 2 sides double stitching), and a 5 millimeters diameter PE or PP rope on the edge, inside the hem. 1000 denier minimum.

Tensile strength: Minimum 600 N both directions of warp and weft (BS 2576, 50 mm grab test or equivalent).

Tear strength in plain sheet at state of origin: Minimum 100 N both directions (BS 4303 wing tear or equivalent) or under ISO 4674 (A2).

UV resistance: Stabilized against ultraviolet rays and excess heat for long outdoor exposure. Maximum 5% loss on original tensile strength under ISO 1421 after 1500 hours UV under ASTM G53/94 (UVB 313 nm peak).

Central welding and strength at state of origin: Only one (01) is allowed along the middle of the sheet, length wise. Minimum resistance is 80% of the original tarpaulin tensile strength in the weft under ISO 1421 plus additional procedure.

Width:4 m +/- 1%Length:50m +/- 1%;
Weight per roll:33.66kg to 43.35kg

Material net weight: Minimum 190g/m2 ±20g/m2.

Coating colour: White sun reflective on both sides of the sheet without fluctuation in colour. Inner black fibers to ensure opacity.

Yarn colour: The yarns of the base fabric must be black in both the warp and weft directions. Light grey is not acceptable.

Manufacturer marking of the tarpaulin: Every tarpaulin should include a tag stitched in hem, with the manufacturer identification (letters not higher than 2.5cm). The tag should include the supplier and factory names, unique reference batch number and the date of manufacturing. No company logo should be included with the manufacturer’s marking.

Printing of Unicef logo:
A line with UNICEF logos must be printed on both sides of the plastic sheet, placed one meter from the bottom edge of the long side on the tarpaulin. For UNICEF visibility, size of logo is Length: Approx.75 cm, Height: Approx.18 cm.
The distance (space) between each logo should be approx.20.83 cm. (The UNICEF Logo is allowed one cut at one point). Typeface Font: Univers. Colour specification: Process Cyan (100% cyan) CMYK of C100 M0 Y0 K0.

Edges: Edges are straight and neat cut, and square.
General quality: Tarpaulin not torn, does not have any holes nor fibers missing and must be clean.

Missing yarns: There must not be space between yarns > 5mm.

Flame Retardant: Pass CPAI84 sections 6 with maximum 10s after flame average and maximum 30s after flame per test piece. Ageing under ISO 4892-2, type A, 360 hours.

Bale
Content:1 tarpaulin per bale
Length:Minimum 624mm; Maximum 936mm
Width:Minimum 448mm; Maximum 672mm
Height:Minimum 136mm; Maximum 204mm
Weight:34.06-43.83kg

Bale quality: The bale must be wrapped with a piece of similar material as the one of the tarpaulins. The wrapping must be properly folded, closely tight to the bale content, making a well-shaped cubic bale. Inside the bales the tarpaulins are not individually wrapped.

Marking on the bales: UNICEF horizontal logo, UNICEF item name and number, PO no., PO qty, Consignor, Consignee, Destination, Packing units (number/total number e.g. 1/20, 19/20).
There should be significant space between the logo and other information.

Barcode:
Barcode is fixed and visible

Pallet
