PVC tarpaulin hallPVC halls are flexible, cost-effective and versatile solutions for temporary or permanent storage needs. They are widely used in industry, agriculture, as sports facilities and at events, for example.

Structure and materials of a PVC tarpaulin hall

M&T Laihorinne Oy's manufactured PVC tarpaulin halls and canopies consist of a galvanized steel frame over which a durable PVC-fabric tarpaulin is stretched. The tarpaulins are UV- and fire-protected and, in thickness, 900g/m2 which withstands wear and weather well. Halls are often modular, meaning their size and shape can be adapted to suit the intended use.

PVC material offers several advantages:

• Waterproofness

  The tarpaulin is fully waterproof, protecting the goods inside from moisture.

• UV protection

  PVC fabrics have UV protection that prevents fading and brittleness caused by sunlight.

• Chemical resistance

  PVC withstands many chemicals, oils and solvents well, making it excellent for industrial use.

• Thermal insulation

  PVC materials provide good thermal insulation and reduce temperature fluctuations inside the hall.

Possible uses for a PVC hall

M&T Laihorinne Oy's manufactured PVC tarpaulin halls and canopies are highly versatile and suit many different needs:

• Storage spaces

  PVC tarpaulin halls work excellently as temporary or permanent storage. They are fast to install and dismantle, and are used for industrial or logistics storage needs, for example.

• Agriculture

  In agriculture, PVC halls are used as storage for machinery, feed and grain, for example. They are especially popular as weather shelters for tractors and other large machines. In dairy production, PVC tarpaulin halls work excellently as loose-housing barns for dry cows, heifers and calves.

• Tevents and sports

  As an event tent, a PVC hall provides shelter for large numbers of people. They can also serve as sports halls, such as tennis halls or riding arenas.

• Construction sites

  On construction sites, PVC tarpaulin halls provide protection for building materials and tools. They can also serve as a workspace sheltered from the weather.

Advantages and benefits of a PVC tarpaulin hall

• Cost-effectiveness

  PVC halls are considerably more affordable than traditional buildings, which makes them an attractive solution for both temporary and permanent needs.

• Fast installation

  The halls are designed for fast installation. For example, the installation time for an approximately 500 m² PVC tarpaulin hall on a prepared base is about 7 working days.

• Mobility

  A PVC hall can be dismantled and relocated to different sites multiple times. This makes them an excellent solution when operational flexibility is needed.

• Customizability

  The halls are modular, so their size can be increased or reduced as needed. Additional equipment such as heating, lighting and air conditioning can also be installed afterwards.

• Durability

  The high-quality PVC tarpaulin halls manufactured by M&T Laihorinne Oy withstand arctic weather conditions. They are also long-lasting, as the tarpaulin and frame are designed to last several decades.

Installation and maintenance of a PVC tarpaulin hall and canopy

Installing a PVC tarpaulin hall is fast. Installation requires a level base (an asphalt area) and possibly foundations, depending on the hall's size and intended use.

Maintenance needs are minimal, but regular inspections are recommended. The PVC material is easy to clean and can be patched if necessary.

PVC hall ventilation

• Temperature fluctuations

When designing a PVC hall, ventilation must be taken into account. Ventilation can be implemented as natural or mechanical.

• Condensation

Depending on the material being stored, ventilation design plays a major role in reducing condensation.

Summary

M&T Laihorinne Oy manufactured PVC tarpaulin halls are an excellent option for many uses that require a flexible, quick-to-erect and cost-effective space solution. Their durable structure and easy customisability make them popular in both industry and agriculture.
