Description
DuPont™ Tyvek® 500 Xpert BioCircle™ CHF5 Hooded Coveralls provide the same trusted protection as Tyvek® 500 Xpert, but with a significantly lower climate impact. A third party life cycle assessment commissioned by DuPont™ identified an opportunity to reduce the climate change impact of their Tyvek® coveralls by using more sustainable raw materials. An independent cradle-to-gate life cycle analysis (including biogenic carbon) shows at least 58% lower climate change impact compared to the Tyvek® 500 Xpert Coveralls in standard packaging. Attributed to 100% bio-circular HDPE through an ISCC-certified mass balance approach.
Robust yet lightweight (under 180g per garment), the Tyvek® 500 CHF5 overalls offer reliable Type 5 and Type 6 protection. The garments feature an innovative 3-piece hood which gives an optimal fit, even when using respiratory protection. Elasticated face, wrists and ankles as well as glued-in waist elastic ensures a comfortable and secure fit. The overalls offer ample freedom of movement and are easy to don and doff with a large, easy-to-grasp auto-lock Tyvek® zipper.
Tyvek® garments are made from flash spun, high density polyethylene, which gives a superb balance of comfort, durability and protection. Tyvek® material is permeable to both air and water vapour, yet repels water-based liquids and aerosols. It provides an excellent barrier against fine particles and fibres down to 1 micron in size. It is also ultra-low-linting and anti-statically treated. Silicon non-added.
Tyvek® 500 garments provide superior Type 5 and Type 6 protection, so they are ideal for use in a number of roles. They have applications in medical care, chemical processing, the oil and gas industry, general cleaning and spray painting. Tyvek® limited life products were used around the world in health care centres in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. They also meet the requirement for EN 1073-2 protection against contaminated radioactive particles. For further details, please see the DuPont™ Technical Bulletin – Nuclear Risks.
