What is that fabric called

The stuff that is plastic on one side and kind of nylon-ish on the other side. It's usually checked or bright patterns. John Lewis sells it. I think it's used for table cloths so they wipe clean. I have no idea what it's called. Any ideas?

mine was labelled pvc tablecover

oilcloth?

Alternatively if you want to make your own oilcloth from a fabric you already have then you can buy Vilene Fusible Fabric Laminate
