PALMDALE, CA, February 10, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- When the 2011 Hurricane forecast was announced, the people in the gulf states were not too happy. The leading U.S. tarps supplier is trying to lessen the blow with preparedness. The tarps company has increased if poly tarps inventory by 20% and anticipates another re-stock of the high demand poly tarp cover.
The natural disasters that are often associated with unusual weather changes are happening all too often these days. Families are left devastated as they lose their homes and sometimes their entire families to these tragic occurrences. Hurricanes cause oil spills and this causes the oil price to escalate to absurd levels. These events have, motivated certain philanthropic minded companies to donate poly tarps to these desecrated areas.
A spokes person for Tarps Plus stated, "The country depends on us when it comes to poly tarps and canvas tarps and we can not let them down".
The poly tarp coverings, which are made to be waterproof and extremely durable, are used for a variety of reasons in these areas. Firstly and most importantly they provide much needed covering for the assistance of any medical emergencies. Most often people get hurt in these disasters and require some kind of medical attention.
As there is much mud, dirt and muck about, the environment is less than conducive to performing any medical work out in the open. The poly tarps can be used to make makeshift emergency treatment centers where doctors and medical personnel are able to administer medical aid to injured people. This helps to prevent the spreading of germs and disease any further.
At scenes of natural disasters due to sewerage systems being disrupted, mud, dirt and disease is able to spread very quickly. People may be injured and cut and can easily become infected with disease as a result of all the filth that is in the vicinity. Therefore the tarps are of much value in keeping things as sterile as possible.
It does not however offer an environment that is ideal for medical work, however it improves the situation quite a lot. People will need shelter to be protected until they can more to more permanent dwellings. Household goods will also need protection and this is provided for by the poly tarps.
While this can be the worse time in these victims lives they should be thankful for the help. Medical staff volunteer their time to help. Other people also help in a variety of ways by providing food, money, shelter and comfort.
Tarps Plus is a global leader of tarps, poly tarps, canvas tarps & multi purpose covers.
