Reinforced hypalon sheet is custom manufactured in the UK by White Cross Rubber Products Ltd. Hypalon rubber or Chlorosulpanated polyethelene (CSM) is a commonly used sythetic organic elastomer suitable for a range of applications.
Hypalon material's outstanding property is it's suitability for bright colour pigmentation, maintaining colour stability in extended exposure to the environment (rubber properties table). For this reason hypalon is often used for ridgid inflatable boat (RIB) material.
Reinforced hypalon sheeting, hypalon insertion sheeting and supported hypalon sheeting are all names that are used inter-changeably; some industries also refer to engineered hypalon fabrics or textiles.
