Tyvek HomeWrap in Australia on 12/07/2008 03:39:24 MST Print View

Hey MYOGers

I'm looking to buy some Tyvek HomeWrap in Australia. I have priced 3m x 30m rolls @ about $155.00. Will also use Tyvek Tape instead of sewing, if I can find it here.

Am wondering if anyone has any available for sale? Looking for about 10m. Otherwise, is there anyone in Australia that wants to buy half a roll?

PM me

Hi Tegyn
Sorry I cannot help you with sourcing the material here, but you may want to check out the different kinds of Tyvek before you buy a large quantity of it. HomeWrap could be good as a grounsheet but for a bivy 1422R is more suitable and for tents or a more water resistant (less breathable...) bivy you may want 1443R, known as Tyvek Soft Structure or Tyvek fabric.

Ignore this if you already have done your own research...
