Tyvek Material for Ground Cloth or Shelter. Buy by the Linear Foot (9' roll).

Tyvek is not just for houses these days. It's very popular in the outdoor world as well - very light, tough, waterproof - and washable. Use it for a superlight but strong footprint for your rental tent or create your own lightweight shelter of any shape or size. Use a leftover piece as a gear mat in front of any tent you might rent from us, or a back-country seat cover or table mat. We sell a lot of it for every imaginable use. Tip - throw it in your washer without detergent to make it more pliable and quieter - won't hurt its effectiveness.

Our Tyvek is on a 9 foot long roll, so one linear foot off of this roll gets you a piece 1' x 9', which is nine square feet (one sq. yard), weighing in at only 1.9 ounces. That said, a 1' wide piece isn't going to be of much use. You will most likley want a piece at least 3 feet wide.  We sell it for $3 per linear foot - if you want a 3'x9' piece for example, just update the quantity to '3' in your shopping cart - that would be about right as a base to cut down further for a 1-man tent.

Sure, it's cheaper at Home Depot . . . . as long as you are willing to buy a minimum 150 feet of it. So we're the better deal.
