Modern Arts and DuPont Partner on Tyvek Shopping Bags Project
by ModernArts on Aug.27, 2009, under Green Shopping Bags, Tyvek
Only now are we realizing the tremendous advantages of using Tyvek for shopping bags. Tyvek is considerably stronger than non-woven base material so it is much more “reusable” and has a much longer usable life. And Tyvek is washable in a way that non-wovens aren’t.
Tyvek can be printed in sophisticated designs and a full spectrum of colors.
So we at Modern Arts are teaming up with our partners at DuPont, and our colleagues at a manufacturing plant south of the border, to experiment with making Tyvek shopping bags in exciting shapes, new sizes and vibrant colors.
We’ll keep you posted on how it works out.
