Why Wholesale Buyers See Colour Variation Across Rolls in One Shipment
Colour drift between rolls usually traces back to pigment dosing and extrusion temperature, not to the base resin.
When sourcing wholesale PE tarpaulin bulk lots, a distributor expects every roll in the container to match the approved colour swatch. In practice, pigment masterbatch concentration can shift between extrusion runs, and LDPE coating temperature affects how the colour sets on the HDPE woven base. Rolls produced on different days — sometimes even on different shifts — may show a visible tint difference once they are unrolled side by side at the warehouse. This forces resellers to sort and segregate inventory, delaying dispatch to end customers. [NEED_CITE: colour consistency testing methods for coated polyethylene fabrics]
Stock Grades and Width Options for Immediate Dispatch
Keeping the most traded mesh densities and colourways in continuous production means the PE tarpaulin roll inventory can ship without the delay of a made-to-order run. Standard widths cover common truck, scaffold and pallet cover dimensions, while the 100 m roll length fits established fabrication workflows. Buyers placing container-load orders can mix standard blue, white, green and black rolls in one shipment, simplifying customs clearance and reducing per-roll freight cost.
Container-Load Planning and Bulk Pricing Tiers
Loading a 20GP or 40HQ container efficiently depends on roll diameter, bale dimensions and stacking pattern. Each roll is packed individually, and sheet orders are baled to approximately 240 square metres per unit. The loading plan lists roll count, net weight and cubic utilisation so that the buyer can verify freight cost per tonne before booking the vessel. Tiered pricing applies at defined roll-count thresholds, giving wholesale buyers a transparent cost structure as volume increases.

How Mesh Count and GSM Work Together in PE Tarpaulin
The HDPE woven base provides the structural skeleton; the LDPE coating on both sides locks the weave and delivers waterproofing. A 6×6 mesh with a lighter coating sits at the lower end of the weight range, suitable for short-term covers and agricultural sheeting. Moving to a 10×10 or 14×14 mesh increases the number of yarns per unit area, and when paired with a heavier LDPE coat, raises both tensile and tear performance. GSM alone does not determine strength — a tightly woven light-coat fabric can outperform a loosely woven heavy-coat one in tear resistance. Understanding this relationship helps buyers select the grade that meets the actual load and exposure condition rather than paying for weight that adds no functional benefit.
What Happens When the Roll Weight Does Not Match the Quotation
A distributor orders 180 g/m² rolls but receives material closer to 150 g/m². The sheet feels thinner during fabrication, eyelet pull-out occurs sooner under tie-down tension, and end users report early tearing at reinforced corners. The root cause is often insufficient LDPE coating weight applied during production, which escapes detection if only the label is checked. By the time the reseller discovers the discrepancy, the shipment has already been cut and distributed. This is why pre-shipment weighing of sample rolls against the stated spec is a non-negotiable step for any wholesale PE tarpaulin order.

Why This Source Supports Repeat Wholesale Orders
Three full production lines and 36 sets of equipment maintain output volume so that container-load PE tarpaulin orders ship on schedule without partial deliveries.
A 10-person R&D team develops custom colour matches, printed branding and non-standard sheet sizes within days, allowing distributors to test market response before committing to full-container runs.
Dedicated QA and QC stages at every production point — weaving, coating, cutting, eyelet insertion — catch GSM deviation and colour drift before the roll reaches the packing area.
Every roll is inspected against the purchase order spec during a 100 % pre-shipment audit, with weight, mesh count, eyelet spacing and colour reference verified.
Sample rolls are dispatched within days for buyers who need to confirm hand feel, colour and fabrication behaviour before releasing the bulk order.
Documentation & Verification
- Material spec sheet stating HDPE mesh count, LDPE coating weight and colour reference for each roll batch
- Pre-shipment inspection record confirming GSM, eyelet spacing and sheet dimensions against the purchase order
- Roll packing list with roll count, net weight and container loading plan for 20GP or 40HQ
- Colour reference card included with the shipment for incoming quality comparison at destination
- Certificate of origin and customs documentation prepared for cross-border clearance
- ISO and CE certificates available at company level to support import registration
Fabrication, Handling & Storage
- Heat-seal the LDPE-coated surface at moderate temperature to avoid burning through the HDPE base yarn
- Punch eyelets through the PP rope hem and black plastic corner triangle to distribute tie-down load
- Store rolls horizontally on a flat pallet to prevent edge creasing that weakens the woven structure
- Unroll sheets flat before cutting to release tension and achieve accurate finished dimensions
- Clean with mild detergent and soft brush to protect the LDPE coating surface from scratches
- Keep UV-treated rolls wrapped until deployment to preserve the stabiliser layer before installation
What to Include in Your Inquiry
Provide the GSM grade, mesh count preference and colour reference you need for your target market. Specify whether you require roll stock at 100 m lengths or cut-to-size sheets, and indicate the target container type — 20GP or 40HQ — so the loading plan can be prepared with your order. Confirm whether eyelet spacing, printed branding or custom packaging labels are part of the requirement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What roll widths and lengths are available for stock orders?
A: PE tarpaulin rolls are produced at standard widths suited to truck, scaffold and general-purpose covers, with a default roll length of 100 m. Custom widths and lengths can be arranged for container-load orders. Confirm the exact dimensions needed so the production team can check current stock or schedule a dedicated run that matches your container loading plan.
Q: How many rolls fit in a 20GP or 40HQ container?
A: The roll count depends on the GSM grade, roll diameter and whether the order includes sheet bales alongside rolls. A detailed loading plan listing roll count, net weight and cubic utilisation is prepared before shipment so buyers can verify freight efficiency. Mixed-grade orders are consolidated in one container to reduce per-unit shipping cost.
Q: Can different GSM grades be mixed in one container?
A: Yes, wholesale buyers commonly combine light-duty and heavy-duty rolls in a single container to stock multiple price points. Each grade is packed and labelled separately with its own specification card. The packing list itemises every roll by grade, colour and dimensions so that receiving staff can sort inventory quickly on arrival.
Q: How is colour consistency maintained across rolls in the same shipment?
A: Pigment masterbatch is dosed by weight for every extrusion run, and LDPE coating temperature is held within a controlled band. Rolls from the same production batch are grouped together in the container. A colour reference card is included in the shipment documentation so the buyer can verify consistency during incoming inspection at the destination warehouse.
Q: What documentation is provided with a bulk wholesale order?
A: Each shipment includes a material specification sheet, pre-shipment inspection record, roll packing list with weight and count breakdown, colour reference card and certificate of origin. ISO and CE certificates are available at company level. Additional documentation for specific import markets can be arranged before dispatch if the buyer provides the requirements during the inquiry stage.
