DuPont Tyvek Hood is a specially designed single use hood for use with the Tyvek range of limited life apparel. DuPont’s range of Tyvek accessories offer a superb balance of protection, durability and comfort. They provide an extra layer of protection for exposed body parts, which helps to prevent exposure to hazardous materials.
Tyvek garments and accessories are made from flash spun, high density polyethylene with ultra low linting. Both sides of the hood are anti-statically treated to EN 1149-1 standard. The hood features a flange with elasticated face and neck openings for a secure and comfortable fit. It is permeable to both air and water vapour, but still effectively repels water based liquids and aerosols. It also gives excellent protection against a wide range of environmental hazards. This includes dust, fine particles and fibres down to 1 micron in size.
The Tyvek hood is suitable for use in a wide range of health care and industrial roles. For example food processing, chemical protection, lead and asbestos removal, general repairs or maintenance work, spray painting, cleaning and more. Tyvek limited life products are currently being used around the world in health care centres during the COVID-19 pandemic.
