missiles and rockets on the launch pad or
during construction, says Karl Deardorff,
SLO owner. The tarps are made from antistatic fabric, a critical requirement in an
environment where a rocket booster might
be sitting on 100,000 pounds of rocket fuel.
Some jobs might need specific qualities, such
as polyester, carbon or conductive threads.
"The point is to protect people and
equipment from FOD-foreign object
debris," Deardorff says. "A rocket that's
230 feet high can have six to eight levels
of scaffolding, and if something falls,
that's a problem. An anti-FOD tarp may
only be 6 to 9 inches wide, but that is
enough to avert damage or loss."
Between NASA's short and longrange goals, a new space race between

deep-pocketed private companies, and
the advantages of high-tech textiles in
space exploration, the aerospace market
presents great potential for specialty fabric
suppliers, designers and manufacturers
that are looking to make their mark in
extreme applications.
"This is a growing area with lots of
opportunity," Deardorff says. "There is a lot
of work for us all. We enjoy working closely
with our customers on these unique projects,
and we enjoy the excitement of designing for
an industry with such big ambitions."
