ICC Standard Weatherproof Ground Tarpaulins and Mobile Dome Covers Engineered for Dry Play
We manufacture and install premium cricket pitch covers and field tarpaulins. Utilizing high-tensile reinforced PVC/PE fabrics, heat-sealed waterproof seams, and mobile steel/aluminum dome frames, we protect playing wickets from severe storms.
Cricket pitch covers are essential for preventing rainwater from soaking the clay playing surfaces, ensuring dry wickets and allowing matches to resume quickly.
Elite International Sports designs, manufactures, and installs premium, ICC-compliant pitch covers. Standard PE tarps tear easily under wind shear, leak through pinhole seams, and suffocate the turf grass underneath. We supply high-tensile reinforced PVC fabrics, heat-sealed seams, and mobile dome covers, ensuring complete storm protection.
Our pitch covers utilize 100% waterproof polyester mesh substrates coated in UV-resistant PVC resins. The fabrics integrate breathability parameters to prevent condensation and greenhouse heat buildup under the cover, keeping turf grass healthy.
Whether supplying ground covers for international test arenas, school yards, sports clubs, or national academies, we deliver lightweight handles, custom wheels, and weather-resistant warranties.
High-tensile PVC coated tarpaulins stretched over field wickets.
Explore the technical design details, structural engineering components, and calibration procedures that define our premium pitch covers.
The engineering of our pitch covers starts with frame mechanics. We design the steel frames using specialized design tools, calculating wind load parameters based on local weather records. Foundation design features reinforced concrete pedestal footings anchor-bolted with high-tensile fasteners to secure the main steel columns.
The primary columns and rafters are built-up steel sections fabricated in our quality-controlled factory. Once transported to the site, they are bolted together using high-strength fasteners. This avoids field welding, reducing structural defects. The wall cladding utilizes single or double-skin color-coated galvanized steel sheets.
We test the spring tension levels on hurdles using weight sensors to ensure they fall over easily when struck, avoiding trippings and protecting athletes from high-speed falls.
Fabrics rated to resist high water pressure heads without moisture seepage through surfaces.
Woven high-density polyester core threads preventing wind-tear propagation during heavy storms.
Pre-assembled structural steel arches on swivel casters, supporting rapid wicket covering.
Reflective white or green top layers blocking UV rays and preventing greenhouse grass burn.
Heavy-duty webbing grab loops stitched at 2-meter spacing intervals, assisting fast manual pulls.
Specialized micro-mesh vents preventing condensation dampness from settling on clay pitches.
Large flat sheets (e.g. 100ft x 100ft) covering the square and bowlers' run-ups. Features reinforced edges and carry handles.
Elevated metal frames covered in PVC, rolling on casters. Arched designs allow gutters to direct water away from pitches.
Heavy PVC tubes inflated using electric blower fans. Raises sheets off pitches, preventing direct contact with damp grass.
We work with the client to determine sheet dimensions, fabric weights, frame needs, and printing requirements.
We verify wicket square dimensions, wind speeds, and drainage gutters before manufacturing.
We model dome truss structures, wheel mounts, and canvas layouts in 3D CAD views.
We select certified high-tensile PVC fabrics, aluminum frame extrusions, swivel casters, and welding materials.
We weld fabric joints, roll aluminum tube arches, and fit corner supports in our factory.
We print team logos, apply UV reflective white finishes, and powder coat steel joints.
We test seam weld waterproofness, check frame load limits, and verify wheel swivel actions.
We roll covers on cores and wrap frame sections in protective bubble wrap before shipping to the site.
We assemble frame arches, connect dome panels, attach caster wheels, and stretch PVC covers.
We run rolling test trials on the outfield, check wind-lock anchors, and verify water drainage.
We hand over the pitch covers, along with strap anchors and cleaning instruction guides.
550g/m² high-tensile core mesh coated with UV-resistant PVC layers. Prevents wind tear damage.
Structural grade 6063-T6 aluminum tubes. Lightweight, highly rigid, and rust-free in outdoor stadiums.
Cast iron wheels covered in polyurethane. Prevents field turf denting during heavy roll movements.
Polypropylene breathable mesh strips stitched inside vents, allowing air flow to prevent mold grass rot.
Solid brass grommets pressed at 1-meter intervals along seams, preventing eyelet tears under rope pulls.
Titanium dioxide white topcoat finishes. Reflects solar heat and prevents color fading under hot sun.
