PALMDALE, CA, March 16, 2011 (Press-News.org) The most devastating earthquake in more than 140 years hit Japan yesterday morning. It was an 8.9 magnitude earthquake, coming from a depth of 130km and bringing an even deadlier tsunami with it. After earthquakes that rocked Haiti and Chile in 2010 and more recently Australia and New Zealand, Tarps Plus - the world leader canvas tarp supplier has strengthened their efforts to supply canvas tarps to these severely affected areas.
Tarps Plus is a world leader for fabric tarpaulins and has also supplied canvas tarps for tsunami affected countries in Asia. These fabric tarpaulins are used as temporary shelters (from extreme sun, rain, snow, wind, dust and ashes) or to cover up bodies and other items that need protection.
Due to the fact they are water-resistant and extremely durable, they played a vital role in the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. The poly tarps were also placed in the water in order to save hundreds of endangered sea species.
When natural disasters such as the earthquake in Japan occur, people are forced to flee their homes and are in need of any kind of shelter. Tarps Plus provide cheap yet durable fabric tarps with which one can build a roof or assist in the process of recovering from disaster born tragedies.
A representative of Tarps Plus was stated, "The shipments canvas tarps went out within twenty four hours of the order."
Relief agencies such as the Red Cross organize and pay for numerous worldwide relief operations and are in need of huge numbers of fabric tarpaulins used as makeshift hospitals, shelters or relief stations.
The canvas tarp are duck canvas, water resistant due to oil base treatment, with edges that have solid brass grommets every 2ft; the corners are made of four ply reinforced fabric; each eyelet is reinforced and made from heavy gauge brass that doesn't rust. Being more heavy duty (12oz.to 14oz) than other average tarps (10oz) the canvas tarps are high quality, individually made tarps with a wide range of sizes available in separate emergency stock.
Tarps plus is a world leader for poly tarps, canvas tarps & multi purpose covers.
