BANGKOK, June 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DuPont (NYSE:DD) today announced it has launched Tyvek^® APX™ in the ASEAN market at Thailand Safe@Work 2026 in Bangkok. Through the culmination of scientific research and customer collaboration, Tyvek^® APX™ fabric is the most advanced form of Tyvek^® material to date and provides outstanding levels of breathability without compromising protection or durability.

"With the launch of Tyvek^® APX™, we've created a new and revolutionary form of Tyvek^® material that addresses one of the most significant health and safety challenges – making garments more breathable without sacrificing performance or durability," said Dave Kee, Global Business Director, DuPont Personal Protection. "Tyvek^® APX™ fabric offers an outstanding combination of protection and comfort, helping workers to perform at their best, especially in physically demanding environments."

Worker well-being and comfort have become increasingly important in recent years, as companies across sectors—from pharmaceuticals and utilities to heavy manufacturing and chemical processing—have placed greater emphasis on safety. The ability to efficiently dissipate body heat while wearing protective coveralls is becoming an increasingly important factor in worker comfort and the prevention of overheating.

Tyvek^® APX™ protective coveralls provide an ultimate balance of comfort and protection. It represents a breakthrough in breathability, allowing moisture to escape and air to circulate, keeping workers more comfortable. The properties being claimed for Tyvek^® APX™ garments are scientifically validated. An independent physiological study, conducted by Empa, has demonstrated the enhanced breathability credentials of Tyvek^® APX™ fabric. It measured the physiological changes in workers wearing traditional protective garments and Tyvek^® APX™ coveralls under different environmental conditions while performing different levels of activity.

"DuPont also conducted customer wear trials globally to gauge whether wearers could feel the difference in performance. Almost 300 people took part across different regions and applications. The garments were tested in extremes of temperature and humidity, and from low work intensity to high levels of activity. Overall, the preference for high-breathability Tyvek^® APX™ fabric was clear.

For over 50 years, the DuPont™ Tyvek^® brand is recognized in defining the category of protective clothing. It's synonymous with safety and trusted innovation," said Kee. "Now, we're taking that legacy to a new level with Tyvek^® APX™, redefining what it means to feel safe and protected."
