DuPont announces winners of third annual Tyvek(R) Sustainable Healthcare Packaging Awards. Awards recognize continued excellence in healthcare packaging initiatives that utilize Tyvek(R) material to help drive and promote sustainable innovation WILMINGTON, Del., Oct. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - DuPont (NYSE: DD) announced the winners of its global awards program, the Tyvek(R) Sustainable Healthcare Packaging Awards, during the Medical Packaging Conference (MPC) hosted by DuPont September 30 - October 2, 2026, in Boston. Now in its third year, this awards program recognizes leaders across the healthcare industry who are embracing and driving sustainability throughout the packaging lifecycle. The three 2026 winners, who utilize healthcare packaging made with DuPont(TM) Tyvek(R) material and whose efforts show a significant focus on sustainability in the three award categories, are: Packaging (re)Design: Plastic Ingenuity Plastic Ingenuity developed a new ready-to-use (RTU) tub and lid platform made from recycled PuraForm(TM) 134 polyester, offering an alternative to injection-molded polystyrene. Paired with Tyvek(R), the design cuts plastic use by 15 percent and avoids 217 metric tons of CO2e per 1 million units, while staying recyclable. This helps manufacturers implement a solution made from materials that generate fewer particulates while providing a more sustainable solution. Operational Efficiencies: Coligroup Spa Coligroup redesigned traditional suture packaging to eliminate an entire layer of material while preserving full sterility. Relying solely on an aluminum inner pouch fitted with a strip made of Tyvek(R), the solution lets sterilizing gas fully penetrate the package, removing the need for a second outer layer. This cuts material, labor and sterilization costs by up to 35 percent. Sustainability In-Use: Nelipak Healthcare Packaging Nelipak Healthcare Packaging developed Ecovate(TM) headerbags, an all-polyethylene laminate combining mono-axially oriented PE (MOPE) with Tyvek(R) with Renewable Attribution, replacing the mixed-material laminates common across the ready-to-fill/use (RTF/U) market. The mono-material structure is certified recyclable by Institut Cyclos-HTP and could lower the product's greenhouse gas footprint up to 40 percent when including end of life recycling, helping the growing RTF/U market advance packaging circularity. "This year's winners demonstrate that sustainable healthcare packaging progress is happening through practical design choices, operational improvements and scalable material innovations," said Lesley Aulick, global business director, DuPont(TM) Tyvek(R) Roll Goods. "We are honored Tyvek(R) has a role in these initiatives and are committed to continued advancement of circularity, reducing environmental impact and supporting sustainability goals - all while protecting products and helping to ensure patient safety."

Attorney General Todd Rokita leads multistate coalition to stop DuPont shell game, hold companies accountable for PFAS contamination. Office of the Attorney General Todd Rokita. Attorney General Todd Rokita today led a bipartisan coalition of 16 states and territories in a lawsuit against Indiana-based EIDP, Inc., the chemical company historically known as DuPont; its parent, Corteva; and a newly created entity, Vylor. The suit seeks to unwind a coordinated transfer that moved DuPont's most valuable business assets into Vylor and left the PFAS liabilities behind, out of reach of the states and other plaintiffs. On October 1, 2026, DuPont and Corteva transferred the Pioneer seeds business - a major corn and soybean operation - to Vylor. That business was about three-quarters of the value still in the companies. The transfer sends it out of reach of the states and other PFAS plaintiffs, and it was structured so Vylor took the assets and none of the liabilities. Those stayed with DuPont, which kept the lawsuits and gave away most of what plaintiffs could have reached if they win a judgment. The states are asking a Marion County court for a temporary restraining order freezing the assets. The proposed order would stop DuPont and Corteva from using remaining funds for dividends and stock buybacks and stop Vylor from selling or pledging the seeds assets it just received. "Many families have been hurt, and are still being hurt, by these micro chemicals that several companies knew were dangerous, and we will not sit by and let them game the system by moving their most valuable assets out of reach and leaving the PFAS liabilities they created behind," Attorney General Rokita said. "They spent years setting up this transfer to avoid paying for actions that have harmed so many, and this lawsuit is how we stop them from getting away with it." Attorney General Rokita is already in court with these companies. In April 2024, his office sued 22 PFAS manufacturers - including DuPont, EIDP, Corteva, Chemours, and 3M - in Shelby County, alleging they kept selling these chemicals after they knew the risks and hid that knowledge from the public. That case rests on a long record. For decades, DuPont concealed from state regulators, the public, and consumers its growing knowledge of the risks these chemicals posed to human health and the environment, failed to warn, and hid the dangerous nature of the products. Thousands of firefighters and others have made the same claim: DuPont knew or should have known the dangers when it made or sold products containing PFAS. Earlier restructurings, including the Chemours spinoff, already moved value away from those liabilities and were designed to shield assets from judgment. The Vylor transaction continues that pattern, and it is aimed at creditors already in court - including Indiana. If the transfer stands, state taxpayers will be left with the bill: tens of billions of dollars to remove PFAS from drinking water, clean up sources, and compensate the public for the costs and impacts of that chemistry.

15 state attorneys renew lawsuit on breaking up Corteva. | Published on: Oct 2, 2026 By Dietrich Knauth, Reuters NEW YORK, NY - Fifteen US states sued agrichemicals company Corteva (CTVA.N), opens new tab on Thursday, alleging â???that the spinoff of its seed and genetics business into Vylor (VYLR.N), opens new tab was designed â???to shield the company's best assets from tens of billions of dollars in potential liabilities tied to PFAS "forever chemicals" that have polluted the environment. Corteva completed the Vylor spinoff into a separate publicly traded company on Thursday. The â???lawsuit, filed in Indiana state court by a bipartisan group of state attorneys general â???and the territory of Guam, alleges that Vylor received the "crown jewels" of â Corteva's business without assuming any responsibility for perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination. Corteva, which was formed â???from a corporate merger of Dow Chemical and DuPont, has been named in thousands of â???lawsuits over DuPont's decades-long production and sale of PFAS-containing chemicals. The lawsuits allege that PFAS have polluted the environment and exposed millions of Americans to potential health risks. Corteva said in September that the states' PFAS â???claims are "speculative and unproven," adding that Corteva itself never made or sold PFAS products. When Corteva â???was spun off as an independent company from DuPont, it inherited some responsibility for DuPont's PFAS liabilities. The states â???allege â that the Vylor spinoff transferred one of Corteva's most profitable businesses to a new company while leaving PFAS liabilities behind, amounting to an effort to defraud creditors pursuing claims against former DuPont entities. "Companies cannot simply move valuable assets out of reach and leave states, communities and â???taxpayers to deal with â???the liabilities left behind," â New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella said Thursday.
