DuPont : What floorutions for protecting the people and securing the processes in the laboratory?

A global leader in advanced materials, DuPont equips laboratories and cleanrooms with solutions that protect people and safeguard processes. Its Tyvek and Tychem ranges meet the demands of research, quality control and pharmaceutical manufacturing: cleanroom apparel, chemical protective coveralls, accessories and sterile packaging. Traceability, manufacturing consistency and international compliance underpin every product for critical environments, from R&D through to clinical batches.

Pioneering since 1802

Founded in 1802 in Wilmington, Delaware (United States), DuPont moved from gunpowder to materials science with one enduring focus: harnessing innovation to deliver safety and performance. Decades of R&D have produced hallmark materials such as Tyvek (HDPE nonwoven) and the multilayer Tychem barriers, now standards across industry and laboratories. Following the group's reshaping in the late 2010s, DuPont has focused its activities on Electronics & Industrial and Water & Protection, stepping up investment in personal protection, water management and controlled environments. Present in Europe through DuPont de Nemours, the brand today serves the pharmaceutical/biotech, chemical and microelectronics sectors.

Expertise and areas of specialisation

In the lab, DuPont stands out with solutions that combine barrier performance, breathability and cleanroom-grade cleanliness.

- Tyvek IsoClean: garments and accessories for controlled environments, available in sterile (gamma-irradiated) or non-sterile versions. Low particle shedding, double bagging, lot-by-lot traceability and supporting documentation streamline workflows in ISO Class 5 to 8 for aseptics, bioprocessing and microbiology.

- Tyvek 500/600: CE Category III coveralls, types 5/6, combining particle barrier with splash protection. Ideal for powder handling, maintenance and cleaning in classified areas.

- Tychem (e.g., C, F): advanced chemical protection (types 3/4/5/6) against a wide range of acids, bases and solvents. Designed for high-risk tasks, decontamination and HSE interventions.

- Tyvek-based packaging solutions: sterilisation substrates for components and consumables, compatible with common methods (EtO, irradiation). Feature clean peel and excellent gas permeability.

Known for consistent material quality and compliance testing, DuPont safeguards operations from R&D through to pilot scale. Users value reliable sizing, process-compatible features (sealed zips and seams, antistatic options depending on reference) and an active CSR approach, including Tyvek recycling programmes where available. With Dutscher, key references are available and tracked for a simple, traceable and sustainable supply.

Frequently asked questions about DuPont

What is the difference in use between Tyvek IsoClean and Tyvek 500/600 for a pharma lab: aseptic cleanrooms with stringent cleanliness requirements versus general protection against dust and splashes?
IsoClean is for cleanrooms: low particle shedding, gamma-sterilised options, double bagging and traceability. Tyvek 500/600 protects in non-aseptic areas (Cat. III, Types 5/6).

Which certifications and protection types do DuPont coveralls provide for use in R&D, QC or production?
Tyvek 500/600: CE PPE Category III, Types 5/6. Tychem (C, F): Category III, Types 3/4/5/6 for chemical hazards. Compliant with Regulation (EU) 2016/425, with Declarations of Conformity.

Are DuPont garments suitable for cleanrooms and the sterilisation processes used in pharma/biotech?
Tyvek IsoClean is available gamma-sterilised with certificates; supplied double-bagged.

Is Tyvek recyclable and what sustainability policy does DuPont apply to reduce environmental footprint?
Tyvek is a recyclable HDPE (subject to local streams). DuPont 2030 goals cover climate, resources and circularity, and Tyvek take-back programmes run in some countries.

How do you choose the right size and ensure integration with masks, goggles or filtering respirators?
Sizing is consistent and the cuts favour ergonomics. Some models provide antistatic properties and sealed/taped seams. Check PPE compatibility and the size guide on the product page.
