Description
Tyvek® Soft Structure - The soft feel of fabric, the tear-resistance of Tyvek®.
DuPont™ Tyvek® Soft Structure is a lightly bonded product with an embossed pattern, providing a softer, flexible substrate with the "hand", or feel of fabric.
Soft and fabric-like, Tyvek style 1443R prints beautifully to achieve incredibly strong graphics. Printable with offset or screen techniques, it is lightweight, water resistant, breathable, tear resistant, flexible and easy to sew. It's often used to make promotional clothing, windsocks/decoys, camping accessories and much more. It's also ideal as an interlining between double sided signs, flags, and banners.
It is a high opacity material with excellent whiteness and good surface stability that can be glued, sewn, and, to a limited extent, ultrasonically seamed and heat-sealed in fabrication. It can be printed with offset or screen techniques, although it is more demanding than hard structures.
Tyvek®1443R meets all the requirements of the USA Flammable Fabrics Act, CA-191-53, for wearing apparel.
Popular for many applications serving the arts, crafts and industry!
