Paving Covers
Midwest Leader in Paving Covers
Paving covers are made from our new 10 ounce burlap fabric. These covers are used for concrete curing, particularly in the Midwest United States. When the cover is placed over fresh concrete, it helps to maintain hydration and temperature throughout the curing process. Paving covers can also be used to pull behind a paver, which provides a textured look to concrete. Since they're made from all-natural, durable burlap fabric, these paving covers withstand even the toughest conditions and last longer than many synthetic fabric covers.
Commercial Supply Co. manufactures burlap paving covers in our Des Moines, Iowa warehouse. They can be customized to your exact specifications and used on a variety of concrete projects. Since we cut and sew our concrete paving covers from bulk roles of premium grade burlap, we can manufacture them to serve even the largest of projects. Thanks to our Midwest location, shipping time to any location is fast.

Burlap Paving Covers
Why is Commercial Supply Co the best option for sourcing burlap?
The Des Moines-based company has been providing burlap to contractors for decades and is the Midwest-expert for sourcing burlap, especially for concrete curing. The company works with respected sources in Asia to bring in burlap bales that are then measured and sewn into concrete paving covers (also called concrete blankets) by a skilled team onsite. This allows the company to ensure quality, manufacture custom sizes and offer competitive pricing.
Commercial Supply Co. started out in the textile business, creating covers, bags and other items for a variety of industries ranging from concrete to agriculture. The team STILL does this work with fabrics that include burlap, cotton, and canvas.
How does the Commercial Supply Co create burlap concrete paving covers?
First, we understand the customer needs dependent on project size and application. The team breaks down a burlap bale and measures the burlap to the specific length and width. The burlap is carefully measured and cut. Then the blanket is created by sewing two pieces of measured burlap together to create a durable cover. These finished covers are typically bundled in bales of 25 and palletized 100 to a pallet to optimize freight costs.
Why is burlap a good material to cure concrete?
Burlap is made from jute fibers and is a go-to material for many applications due to its durability and breathability. Burlap is an excellent material to use for curing concrete as it helps to retain moisture, promotes uniform hydration, and also controls temperature fluctuations during the curing process. This insulation helps to avoid cracking or other surface defects.
Can burlap paving covers be used again?
Burlap can be used multiple times. When the material is properly cleaned and stored it can last through several concrete curing cycles, allowing it to be a cost-effective option for companies.
