The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority is restoring the Windscale nuclear site in Cumbria, to brownfield status. By 2015, it plans to have all remaining nuclear facilities in a passively safe regime.

When looking to improve the safety and protection of protective garments worn in the Post Irradiation Examination Facilities, and demonstrate compliance with stringent EN 1073 requirements for protection against radioactive dusts, UKAEA chose to work with DuPont Personal Protection.

The DuPont(TM) TYVEK® Classic Plus with socks and thumb loops was designed and new dressing and undressing procedures were developed and introduced. TYVEK was selected due to its high level of barrier protection in addition to being tough, tear and abrasion resistant and comfortable to wear.

It is non-linting, antistatic, chemical splash resistant up to 0.12 bar, repellent to inorganic liquids and its smooth surface discourages solid particles from adhering.
