HOW TO RECYCLE TYVEK ENVELOPES
DuPont, the manufacturer of Tyvek, manages a nationwide
recycling program that collects used Tyvek Envelopes and recycles them
into useful materials that provide an alternative to wood.
Follow these easy directions to recycle all your used
Tyvek envelopes.
For Small Quantities (less
than 25 envelopes/month)
Turn any Tyvek(r) envelope inside out, so the unprinted white surface
shows on the outside. Stuff the inside-out Tyvek(r) envelope with other
used Tyvek(r) envelopes for recycling.
Address and mail the envelope to:
Dave Welch - Tyvek Recycling Specialist
CRP-Bldg. 705
974 Centre Road
Wilmington, DE 19805-0705
For Medium Quantities (more
than 25 but less than 500 envelopes/month)
Call 1-866-33-Tyvek(r) and ask about our pouch program for recycling
Tyvek(r) envelopes. Each pouch holds approximately 200 used Tyvek(r)
envelopes. Collect your envelopes in the pouch and then forward them to
a regional recycler - address label provided.
For Larger Quantities
(more than 500 envelopes/month)
Contact Terry Fife, Tyvek(r) Recycling Specialist, at 1-800-222-5676 or
1-866-33-TYVEK(r) to have a custom program set up for you that works
with local recyclers in your region.
