Construction Advantages

The side and top panels are covered with galvanized steel panels and trimmed with aluminum angle for a clean, durable finish. Both upper corners of the shelter have overlapping wear pleats for added protection from trailer impacts and tearing. The top panel is peaked to drain water.

  • A foam bead is sewn into the leading edge of the vertical front panels and top panel
  • Vertical panels are double layered fabric at the leading edge of the impact area
  • The fabric is double stitched with high strength polyester thread that has been UV treated for improved durability
  • Fiberglass stays are encased in multi-layer pockets and provide the vertical panels with strength (Top stays are “Z” style to keep the curtain straight)

Fabric Advantages

  • Made of fire resistant fabric and available in multiple weights including a premium 40 oz fabric that has six times more abrasion resistance than standard fabric
  • For the most punishing applications, optional premium plus fabric is recommended.
  • It is similar to the belts used on heavy duty, industrial conveyors. It provides elevated resistance to UV, fire, abrasion, tearing, rot, stains, salts, and oils
  • All fabrics are treated with UV protection to help reduce fading
