" FedEx Paks "

"This Pak is made of Dupont Tyvek(R) with 25% post-consumer recycled content
( from milk and water jugs )."

FedEx uses only non-toxic inks, varnishes, and adhesives.

If you happen to read the back of the FedEx mail pouch it is quite interesting to find the " Tyvek " lining which gives the pouch some water repellant properties is made from "recycled milk cartons." Dupont is now utilizing the plastic pellets from the Plastic Lumber plant in Waltham, Mass. Dupont Chemical has become very aware of recycled products in their product mix and has developed these Tyvek lined pouches with the cooperation of ECPL.

~~ very interesting ~~~
