Tyvek® garments are composed of flash spun high density polyethylene
which creates a unique, nonwoven material available only from DuPont.
Tyvek® provides an ideal balance of protection, durability and comfort
of any limited use fabric technology. Tyvek® fabric offers an inherent
barrier against particles (down to 1.0 micron in size). Protection is
built into the fabric itself; there are no films or laminates to abrade
or wear away. Tyvek® fabric's durability advantage over microporous
film fabrics delivers consistently better barrier, even after wear and
abrasion. Applications include: lead and asbestos
abatement/remediation, general maintenance/operations, spray painting,
general clean-up.
- Comfort fit design based on extensive wearer
input to provide our most comfortable garment design that: enables a
greater range of movement while stretching and bending, provides a more
tailored fit, offers reinforcement in high stress areas for fewer
blowouts, utilizes a longer zipper for easier donning and doffing and an
elastic waist to better position the garment.
- Attached respirator-fit hood with elastic around
face opening, designed to cover neck and chin and fit around respirator
face mask
- Longer zipper extends to chin for complete coverage of neck area
- Elastic opening for tighter fit at wrist
- Attached Tyvek® FC boots have special coating to provide added skid-resistance
