Tempo fabric: built for Canadian winters, proven to last

At Tempo, a fabric isn’t just a coated tarp it’s the result of decades of engineering, rigorous testing, and constant improvement. While others use generic materials, Tempo fabrics are designed specifically for harsh Canadian winters, with the strength and flexibility needed to withstand snow, ice, and wind.

Premium technical design for maximum performance

Every Detail Counts

  • 100% virgin high-density polyethylene (HDPE): No recycled content. Our fabric resists cracking, tearing, and cold-weather stress far better than mixed or recycled materials.
  • High thread density: A tighter weave reduces water infiltration and increases mechanical strength.
  • Reinforced cross-woven ripstop structure: Our double-weave pattern boosts tear resistance while allowing the cover to flex with the frame.
  • Double-sided UV stabilization: Applied on both sides of the fabric to prevent yellowing, cracking, and degradation lasting up to 3x longer than untreated covers.

Independently tested. Scientifically proven

Unlike others who just make claims, we prove our quality.

Every fabric is tested at the Centre des technologies textiles (CTT) in Saint-Hyacinthe, Québec an accredited, independent lab.

Tempo fabric is tested for:

  • Tensile strength (warp and weft)
  • Tear resistance
  • UV degradation and accelerated aging
  • Freeze/thaw durability

Result: Tempo fabrics consistently outperform industry standards.

A reputation forged in Québec, trusted across Canada

For over five decades, Tempo has set the benchmark for winter shelter covers in Canada. We don’t just follow the trends, we set them. With a vertically integrated supply chain, in-house expertise, and a commitment to excellence, we deliver quality that importers and resellers simply can’t replicate
