What is Tyvek?
DuPont Tyvek is a unique nonwoven material only from DuPont. Tyvek is made of 100% high density polyethylene fibres randomly laid and compressed to form a remarkably tough printing substrate that is ideal for applications where durability and tear resistance is of prime importance. Tyvek can resist repeated folding and flexing without tearing, and can also be glued, laminated, sewn, stapled and fixed.
What Are the Benefits of Tyvek?
Tyvek combines the performance of paper, film and fabric and thus makes it ideal for a wide range of applications, meaning it also has a number of unique benefits when being used as a material for protective clothing:
- Breathability, since it allows water vapour to escape (keeping you cool all day long)
- Water resistance since it sheds rain, snow and pills
- Tear resistance, since it resists punctures, tears and abrasion
- Light-weighted material keeps clothing non-bulky for comfortable wear
- Paper-like material looks as light as a feather but is considerably stronger
- Eco-friendly design is fully recyclable and made out of HDPE
