Professional containment and protection sheeting for demanding job sites

Complete Containment & Protection Solutions

Professional plastic sheeting is essential for containment barriers, surface protection, moisture barriers, and job site safety across abatement, construction, painting, and industrial applications. The right thickness, reinforcement, and fire rating ensures your containment meets project specifications while providing reliable protection throughout the job.

We stock a comprehensive range of plastic sheeting in multiple thicknesses, colors, and configurations—from standard polyethylene for everyday protection to string-reinforced and flame-retardant options for specialized applications. All available in professional roll sizes for efficient coverage on projects of any scale.

Professional Plastic Sheeting Options

Clear & Black Standard Plastic Sheeting

General-purpose polyethylene sheeting for everyday containment, surface protection, and moisture barriers. Available in clear for light transmission or black for light blocking. Multiple thickness options allow you to match material strength to application requirements.

Available Thicknesses & Applications

2 mil

Light-duty protection, drop cloths, temporary surface covering, general job site use

3 mil

Standard protection, painting containment, light moisture barriers, everyday applications

4 mil

Medium-duty containment, concrete curing, vapor barriers, general construction use

6 mil

Heavy-duty containment, abatement barriers, crawl space liners, durable protection

10 mil

Extra heavy-duty applications, long-term installations, maximum puncture resistance

Available Colors:

Clear (transparent) • Black (opaque)

Standard Roll Sizes:

10' × 100' • 20' × 100' • 40' × 100'

Common Applications:

Surface protection, painting containment, moisture barriers, temporary enclosures, concrete curing, general construction protection

String Reinforced Plastic Sheeting

Reinforced polyethylene with embedded string scrim for enhanced tear and puncture resistance. The reinforcement grid provides superior strength for applications requiring durable, long-term containment or protection in high-traffic or demanding environments.

Available Thicknesses & Applications

6 mil

Reinforced containment barriers, temporary walls, abatement enclosures, enhanced tear resistance

10 mil

Maximum strength applications, long-term installations, heavy-traffic areas, superior puncture protection

Available Colors:

Clear/Translucent (allows light transmission while maintaining privacy)

Standard Roll Sizes:

10' × 100' • 20' × 100' • 40' × 100'

Reinforcement Benefits:

Enhanced tear resistance, superior puncture protection, increased tensile strength, longer service life, maintains integrity in high-traffic areas

Common Applications:

Abatement containment barriers, temporary partition walls, high-traffic protection zones, long-term installations, demanding construction environments

Flame Retardant Plastic Sheeting

Fire-rated polyethylene sheeting meeting NFPA 701 standards for flame resistance. Essential for projects requiring fire safety compliance, occupied buildings, or applications where open flames or welding may be present. Provides the same protection as standard sheeting with added fire safety.

Available Thicknesses & Applications

4 mil

Standard flame-retardant protection, temporary barriers in occupied spaces, light containment applications

6 mil

Heavy-duty fire-rated containment, abatement in occupied buildings, welding area protection

10 mil

Maximum protection with fire rating, long-term installations requiring fire safety compliance

Available Colors:

Clear/White (translucent) • Black (opaque)

Standard Roll Sizes:

10' × 100' • 20' × 100' • 40' × 100'

Fire Rating:

Meets NFPA 701 standards for flame resistance. Self-extinguishing properties reduce fire spread risk in compliance-required applications.

Common Applications:

Occupied building containment, welding/hot work protection, healthcare facility renovations, educational institution projects, fire safety compliance applications

Selecting the Right Plastic Sheeting

Consider Thickness

2-3mil for light-duty, 4-6mil for standard containment and protection, 10mil for maximum durability and long-term installations.

Reinforcement Needs

Standard sheeting for general use, string-reinforced for high-traffic areas or applications requiring enhanced tear and puncture resistance.

Fire Rating Requirements

Use flame-retardant sheeting for occupied buildings, areas with open flames or welding, or projects requiring NFPA 701 compliance.

Color Selection

Clear for light transmission and visibility, black for light blocking and privacy, white/translucent for diffused light with flame rating.
