What is Polythene Sheeting?
Polythene sheeting is for general-purpose use, including dustproofing, lightproofing, and short-term weather protection. Use it to cover surfaces, protect materials, or create a cover using our Dust-Lock Barrier System Kit. It’s waterproof, easy to handle, and reusable.
KEY FEATURES
Material: The sheet is made of strong polythene that gives solid coverage and protection for a wide range of jobs.
Waterproof: Its non-porous surface blocks water and moisture, keeping areas underneath dry and protected from spills or rain.
Good for:
General dust protection and short-term weather protection
Customised dust containment barrier secured with spring poles
BENEFITS
Quick surface coverage: You can place polythene sheeting over any surface with little effort, and it stays in position while you work.
Lasts through multiple use: Polythene sheeting can be used several times as long as it stays in good condition, which means fewer replacements and less waste.
OTHER GENERAL NAMES
Polyethylene sheets, poly sheeting, plastic film, or poly film.

FAQ
Can you paint over polythene sheeting?
No, paint does not stick properly to its smooth surface, but you can use the sheeting as a cover to protect floors or furniture while painting.
Does it stick to surfaces on its own?
No. Polythene sheeting needs to be taped, clamped, or weighed down to stay in place, especially on smooth or vertical surfaces.
Can polythene sheeting stop dust from spreading?
Yes, it helps limit dust from reaching nearby areas and keeps most of it contained while work is in progress.
