How to Avoid Waste on Construction Sites with Cover Tarps
Protect your materials, reduce costs by up to 10% and increase site safety with CIKALA tarps
The Waste That Eats Your Profit
In civil construction, material waste is one of the biggest villains of profitability. When exposed to the elements, materials like cement, sand, wood and bricks suffer irreparable damage:
Moistened cement: Loses its properties and hardens
Sand and gravel: Contaminated by impurities
Wood: Warps and rots with moisture
Mortar: Dries out and loses quality
It's estimated that a construction site without adequate protection can lose up to 10% of the budget in damaged materials. The solution? Quality cover tarps.
