Durable, weatherproof, and virtually indestructible. This 5-sheet pack of Inkjet Tyvek is engineered for projects that need to survive rain, wind, and rugged handling. It is the ultimate solution for high-stakes printing where standard paper would fail.
Genuine Inkjet Tyvek Sheets (8.5 x 11, 5 Sheet Pack)
Bring professional-grade durability to your home printer. Unlike standard paper, Tyvek is a flash-spun high-density polyethylene (HDPE) material that combines the best properties of paper, film, and fabric. It is incredibly lightweight and flexible, yet it resists tearing and water damage, making it the gold standard for outdoor signage, field maps, and racing bibs.
Why Choose Inkjet Tyvek?
Tyvek offers a unique set of benefits for makers and professionals alike:
- Weatherproof Performance: Naturally resists water, wind, and UV exposure. It is ideal for long-term outdoor placement without degrading.
- Unmatched Strength: Tyvek will not rip or crumple by hand. It maintains its structural integrity even when soaking wet.
- Inkjet Optimized: The specially treated surface ensures that dye or pigment-based inks bond quickly for smudge-free, high-resolution results.
- Lightweight & Sewable: Although it feeds easily through standard printers, it is durable enough to be folded, sewn, or grommeted for gear and apparel.
Rugged Applications
- Outdoor Signage: Create weatherproof notices, trail markers, and garden labels that last.
- Field Use: Print your own waterproof maps, blueprints, and emergency survival guides.
- Athletic Events: The industry standard for tear-proof race bibs, wristbands, and event badges.
- DIY Makers: Create ultralight wallets, pouches, and virtually indestructible shipping labels.
⚠️ Critical Printer Warning
Do not use this in a Laser printer. Tyvek is a synthetic material with a lower melting point than paper. It is designed strictly for Inkjet printers. Using it in a Laser printer or copier can cause the material to melt and may result in serious damage to your equipment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it really 100% waterproof?
The Tyvek material itself is completely waterproof. While most modern inkjet inks are highly water-resistant on this surface, we recommend a clear fixative spray if the print will be submerged or exposed to heavy friction.
Can I write on it by hand?
Yes! In addition to printing, you can use permanent markers (like Sharpies) or standard ballpoint pens to add notes or signatures to your Tyvek sheets.
Can I recycle Tyvek?
Yes. Tyvek is made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and can be recycled at facilities that accept #2 plastics.
