 Hi Peter, about 10 years ago a butcher friend  of mine got me a large sheet from master butchers in Canningvale, I imagine that they would still sell it, they are also a good place to get vac bags.

1/4 the price, sheets of poly from plastral

The material used is called UHMWPE

 UHMWPE which stands for Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene. It also it used in the mining industry to line chutes of fines due to its high abrasive resistance. May help track down a little easier.
