What is DuPont™ Tychem®?
DuPont™ Tychem® is a specialized protective fabric designed to guard against chemical and biological hazards. It combines multiple barrier layers laminated to DuPont™ Tyvek® material, creating a lightweight yet highly effective protective solution.
DuPont™ Tychem® garments are used across industries where exposure to hazardous substances is a concern, from industrial chemicals to toxic gases and infectious materials.
How DuPont™ Tychem® Protects You
When it comes to chemical hazards, details are everything.
The trusted performance of DuPont™ Tychem® garments begins with our unique chemical barrier fabrics, which undergo testing by third-party labs. We have compiled a comprehensive database of chemical permeation results to support that Tychem® fabrics will stand up to hundreds of chemicals, ranging from toxic liquids and vapors to sarin and chlorine gas.
Garment construction is crucial as well. Secure seams and zippers; proper sizing; the fit and design of hoods and accessories; and even garment colors all play a critical role in helping keep workers protected on the job. DuPont offers a wide variety of garment styles from hoods and shoe covers to aprons, coveralls and fully encapsulated suits.
Fabric: The First Line of Defense
The barrier fabrics and construction methods used in DuPont™ Tychem® garments help prevent penetration and permeation by chemical hazards. As permeation testing is the most sensitive measure, extensive permeation testing assures that every DuPont™ Tychem® garment provides the appropriate level of protection.

How to Choose the Right DuPont™ Tychem® Coverall?
Type of Chemical Exposure
Identify the substances you’re working with—liquids, vapors or gases. Different DuPont™ Tychem® fabrics provide different levels of resistance depending on the chemical.
Liquid vs. Vapor Protection
Light splashes → Lower-level protection (e.g., Tychem® 2000)
Hazardous liquids or vapors → Higher-level protection (e.g., Tychem® 6000 or 10000)
Exposure Duration
Longer exposure times require higher barrier performance and more durable garment construction.
Fit & Garment Design
Proper fit ensures full coverage and compatibility with other PPE such as gloves, respirators and boots.
