Chloroprene, of which the best known is Neoprene manufactured by Dupont, is a chlorinated synthetic rubber used for its resistance to weathering and for a certain degree of chemical resistance. Chloroprene rubber coatings can be compounded to give a variety of physical characteristics when coated onto fabric.

Other uses for Chloroprene coated fabrics include tarpaulins, car covers, protective workwear, etc. Chloroprene solution can be provided in a variety of colours, filled with additives to impart different physical characteristics, such as handle and abrasion resistance, at many different viscosities and solids levels.
