Frequently Asked Questions About Double Kissan Tarpaulins

Laminated woven high-density polyethylene. HDPE is extruded into thin tapes, stretched to orient the polymer, woven into fabric on looms and then laminated to give a water-shedding surface.

HDPE is woven and laminated — lighter, cheaper and easier to handle at large sizes. PVC is a coated fabric — heavier, more flexible, longer-lived and weldable. Neither is better in the abstract; they suit different jobs.

The sheets are laminated woven HDPE, and lamination is what gives the surface its water-shedding behaviour. The formal waterproof classification by GSM, and the test method behind it, will be published once the factory has confirmed them.

We confirm the UV specification with our factory before publishing it — we do not publish a UV claim without the number behind it.

Service life depends on exposure, tension, abrasion, how the cover is secured and how it is stored between uses — enough variables that a single expected-lifetime number would mislead more than it helps.

Grams per square metre — the mass of material in one square metre of finished sheet, including the woven fabric and its lamination. A 160 GSM sheet contains roughly 160 grams of material per square metre.

Answer four questions in order: how long the cover stays in place, how often it is handled, what it rests against, and how it will be secured. Long-duration, low-handling uses justify heavier sheets; frequently handled covers usually do not.

No. More material means more weight, more folded bulk and higher cost. Construction quality, lamination and edge finishing affect real-world performance as much as GSM does.

160 GSM carries approximately 33% more material per square metre — the largest single step in the Double Kissan range. Ask us for measured strength figures specific to these two options.

Because GSM is measured on a physical sample, every production run varies around its nominal figure. The Double Kissan tolerance is confirmed at enquiry.

Standard retail sizes are listed on our Amazon and Flipkart pages, which stay current in a way a static page cannot. Custom dimensions are manufactured to order.

Take the footprint of what you are covering, add twice the drop you need on each side, then add at least half a metre all round for anchoring. Height is consumed on both sides, so the answer is usually larger than expected.

Blue, yellow and transparent as standard across the range. Custom colours can be produced on made-to-order runs subject to minimum quantity.

Yes, within the limits of our loom and lamination equipment and subject to a minimum order quantity. Send the finished size you need and it will be checked before quotation.

Retail sizes are sold through our official Amazon store and on Flipkart. Bulk quantities, custom sizes and export orders are supplied directly from the factory.

For quantity requirements, buying direct is usually the better route and is the only way to get a custom size. For one or two sheets, the marketplace listings are simpler and faster.

Retail returns are handled under the marketplace's own policy, since the transaction takes place there. Check the return terms on the listing before ordering.

It depends on GSM, size and whether the specification is standard or custom, and is confirmed at quotation against your specific requirement.

GSM, finished size, colour, quantity, where the sheets will be used and when you need them — plus eyelet arrangement and packing configuration if you have a preference.

Lead time depends on quantity, specification and the current production schedule, and is confirmed in writing at quotation.

Yes. Once a specification is agreed, subsequent orders are produced against the same one — which is the main practical reason businesses buy direct from the manufacturer.

Yes, to established trade businesses that already reach the relevant buyers. It is a trade supply arrangement — we do not publish margin figures or income projections and do not present it as an employment opportunity.

We do not publish margin figures. They depend on your buying quantity, your market and how you price, and any supplier quoting a guaranteed margin before seeing your business is guessing.

Export enquiries are welcome. Product range, packing configuration, documentation and OEM or private-label capability are confirmed against a specific enquiry.

Current export destinations are confirmed at enquiry. We do not publish a country list until it reflects real, current shipments.

Ashoka Poly Laminators Pvt. Ltd., at its own facility in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, India. Double Kissan is the brand; Ashoka Poly Laminators is the manufacturing company.

No. The name reflects the brand's origins, but the product is general-purpose waterproof covering used across transport, construction, industry, warehousing, household and outdoor applications as well as agriculture.
