China suspends antitrust investigation into DuPont's Tyvek business

- DuPont DD.N said on Wednesday that Chinese regulators have suspended an antitrust investigation into its Tyvek business, months after launching it amid a flare-up in trade tensions with the U.S.

The chemical company did not disclose why the probe was halted.

China's State Administration for Market Regulation launched the probe on April 4 for alleged violation of the anti-monopoly law.

It came against the backdrop of a broader wave of retaliatory measures by Beijing after the U.S. imposed steep new tariffs on Chinese goods.

Tyvek is a sterile packaging material widely used in the healthcare industry for its durability and compatibility with multiple sterilization methods.

DuPont said Tyvek sales to China totalled about $90 million in 2024, or less than 1% of its total revenue during the period.
