What Is Inflatable Tarp?
Inflatable tarp refers to PVC or TPU coated airtight fabrics designed to withstand internal pressure for inflatable products such as boats, tents, SUP boards, gym mats, water toys, airbags, and rescue products. The fabric is specially engineered for:
- High airtightness — no air leakage under long-term inflation
- High pressure resistance — suitable for drop stitch and high-pressure air chambers
- Strong tensile & tear resistance — safe and durable
- Excellent welding compatibility — hot air, HF, or TPU heat bonding
- UV & weather protection — long outdoor lifespan


DERFLEX inflatable tarp is engineered for superior performance in both PVC inflatable systems and TPU high-pressure applications, covering consumer, commercial, and industrial-grade inflatable products.
