DuPont is the sole producer of Tyvek®, a sheet material made from spun-bonded polyolefin fibers. It is not a paper, but a plastic with long fibers that give it exceptional strength and tear resistance.
- Perfect for bulky mailings – Tyvek’s® combined quality of being lightweight and high strength appeals to organizations that have frequent mailings of bulky materials, often in the insurance, financial or legal industry.
- Lightweight – A Tyvek® envelope weighing half as much as a comparable Kraft envelope will easily handle twice as much material.
- Recyclable – Current Tyvek® material is completely recyclable and contains an average of 10 percent post-industrial content.
