Consumer applications for Kevlar®

The widespread adoption of DuPont™ Kevlar® across multiple industries has inspired consumer goods manufacturers to offer products that feature Kevlar® in their designs. Signature Kevlar® performance benefits such as exceptional strength, cut resistance, and light weight appeal to consumers looking for longer-lasting products that are easier to use, carry and store. The strength-to-weight advantage that Kevlar® has over many other materials means that product designs that use Kevlar® are often not only lighter than their non-Kevlar® equivalents, but less bulky as well.
