Some tarp uses require special tarp characteristics that are not usually needed. These include fire retardant tarps, insulated tarps, and mesh tarps.
Fire Retardant Tarps
Tarps that are to be used around high heat, or where the danger of fire is
high, may require fire retardant coatings. Fire retardant tarps that meet
the CPIA-84 fire and flame retardant specifications will not catch fire and burn quickly like an ordinary tarp may do, so these are used for applications demanding fire retardent characteristics.

Insulated sleeping pads or camping pads provide a layer of insulation and padding between you and the ground, making for a better night's sleep and a well-rested camper or hiker in the morning.
Insulated tarps are typically used to protect things and keep them warm, but can also be used to help keep things cool. An insulated tarp is just a "tarp sandwich" formed by using two layers of regular poly or canvas tarp with some kind of filler in between the layers. To keep the filling from migrating into one spot, insulated tarps are quilted, forming little pockets of polyfill or cotton insulation.
The amount of insulation will determine the efficiency of the tarp in terms of the "R" value, just like with home insulation products. R1, for example, denotes a standard insulating tarp. R3 would be an extra thick, heavy duty insulated tarp. An R1 insulating tarp will suit most consumer or light commercial needs.
