Versatile and Trusted
Made of high-density polyethylene fibres (HDPE), Tyvek® is 100% recyclable*. It forms a tough printing substrate that offers high durability and tear resistance and can withstand repeated folding and flexing without tearing. Tyvek® can also be glued, laminated, sewn, stapled, and fixed. Its unique qualities mean Tyvek® repels water, has excellent rot and mildew resistance, and resists soiling and staining so your message remains perfectly intact, even outdoors. This resistance to damage further reduces environmental impacts because there is no need to apply additional protective coatings, and Tyvek® based products have trusted durability. Since 2022, Tyvek® is also made with renewable electricity***. DuPont achieved this milestone by purchasing renewable energy credits (RECs) and guarantees of origin (GOs) to match the energy consumed in its operations and is committed to additional purchases annually. This underscores the company’s commitment to Acting on Climate.

To meet growing demand for Tyvek®, DuPont is making a significant investment in a new manufacturing facility in Luxemburg that will ensure it has the capacity to support customers well into the future. This new Tyvek® line will feature the premier, leading-edge flash spinning technology practiced only by DuPont, that allows Tyvek® to be produced to the highest quality.
