FAQ about canvas and netting for construction sites

To help you choose the right fabric or net for your job, here are answers to the most frequently asked questions about safety, compliance and materials used on construction sites. Our solutions are designed to meet the demands of the construction industry, while offering durability and performance.

Orange insulating fabrics are widely used in the construction industry to protect materials, structures and workers from harsh weather conditions.

Here are their main applications:

  • They help retain heat in work areas, enabling work to continue even at
    cold temperatures.
  • Protecting materials and equipment
  • Preventing freezing of soil or fresh concrete
  • They prevent over-cooling, ensuring optimum concrete hardening even in cold weather.
  • Their highly visible orange color improves safety on the
    site by demarcating work zones.

These robust, reusable tarpaulins are essential for maintaining efficiency, safety and quality of workmanship, especially in cold regions like Quebec.

For safe installation, simply secure the fabric to the scaffolding using the recommended fasteners, ensuring
that it is well tensioned and that as little air as possible can enter the space.
Uniform tensioning and complete fastening around the structure will ensure its performance and durability.

M-Scaff fabrics are designed to facilitate stable installation: they are made of high-density polyethylene, treated with UV and fire retardants, and resistant to site conditions.

Fireproofing is necessary for spaces that will be heated afterwards. The treatment prevents the spread of flames
in the event of an incident. A good fabric ensures worker safety.

The use of debris netting on a construction site helps to secure the work area by preventing materials, dust and scrap from falling around scaffolding and overhead areas. Megatex nets, made from high-density polyethylene with reinforced buttonhole strips, UV treatment and FR fireproofing, are designed to offer reliable protection while withstanding the demanding conditions of worksites.
They also help maintain a cleaner environment in line with good safety practice.

The lifespan of a fencing net depends on its quality, the intensity of use on site, and the way the nets are handled during installation and removal. Made from high-density polyethylene, the models offered by Megatex are designed to offer excellent durability even in demanding environments and when exposed to sunlight. They feature eyelets for easy installation and removal from jobsites to ensure reusability.

A key advantage of these nets is that they won’t mildew or rot, considerably prolonging their performance, even when exposed to moisture or used on long-term projects. With proper installation, correct tensioning and careful handling, they can be used effectively for several construction seasons. Light periodic inspections of fasteners and edges are usually all that’s needed to maintain their effectiveness. They can be easily installed using tyrap, which we can also supply.
