Protecting frontline workers during a global pandemic
 

When the spread of the COVID-19 virus escalated to the level of a global pandemic in March 2020, many healthcare facilities and essential service facilities were left without the protective gear they needed to battle this deadly virus.

We collaborated with our value chain partners to launch a new global program, #TyvekTogether, to increase the overall availability of Tyvek® personal protective garments. Thousands of our employees worked day and night to make Tyvek® materials and patterns available to more organizations, working together to protect the healthcare workers who were saving lives and slowing the spread of the virus.

The #TyvekTogether program introduced a new specialized Tyvek® fabric to enable the increased production of an additional 6 million gowns per month for frontline responders. By the end of 2020, we had produced more than 100 million Tyvek®, Tychem® and ProShield® PPE garments for the fight against COVID-19—and we’re not stopping yet.
