Xingang Construction Group, a mid-sized firm specializing in urban renovation projects, faced a critical challenge during the construction of a 12-story residential complex in Nanjing. In July 2025, the project entered the indoor decoration phase, with over 500㎡ of premium flooring materials (solid wood panels, ceramic tiles) and 300 sets of electrical fixtures stored in an open-air yard. The local meteorological bureau issued a 7-day heavy rain warning, and traditional canvas covers had failed to protect materials from moisture in previous projects, leading to $12,000 in losses due to warping and short circuits.
After researching 5 brands, the project manager, Mr. Zhang, selected Honghao’s 8m×10m heavy-duty tarps based on two key factors:
- Practical Design: Reinforced aluminum eyelets every 50cm for secure anchoring, and a lightweight 2.5kg/m² design that allowed 2 workers to cover 100㎡ in 15 minutes (half the time of traditional tarps).
- Preparation: The construction team cleared debris from the storage area and laid a base layer of wooden pallets to elevate materials 30cm off the ground.
- Flooring materials: 2 overlapping tarps (8m×10m each) with 1m overlap to prevent water seepage at seams.
- Tools and small equipment: 3 tarps cut to size for irregularly shaped items, using the built-in D-rings to attach to nearby scaffolding.
Results After 7 Days of Heavy Rain
- Tarp Performance: The tarps showed no signs of tearing or stretching, even in areas where wind-driven rain hit hardest. Water beaded and rolled off the surface, with no leakage at seams or eyelets.
"Honghao tarps turned a potential disaster into a non-event. What impressed us most was their durability—after 7 days of rain and wind, they looked as good as new. We’ve now standardized on Honghao for all our outdoor material storage. It’s not just a tarp; it’s insurance for our project timeline and budget." — Mr. Zhang, Project Manager at Xingang Construction Group
