Is Fungi Perfecti Newsletter envelope made of Tyvek ?

Just received Fungi Perfecti Newsletter for the first time and I am sure like me most of you would have subscribed for the same way back and you guys would have already received many volumes. Tyvek is rare here in our part of the world as nobody uses it. I have been reading about this fabric (tyvek suit and envelopes) for long on this forum. Upon receiving the envelope first thing that came to my mind was, Is it made of Tyvek? and if it is made of Tyvek can I use it for filters?
Please help.

I don't know the specific answer to your question but have you looked for synthetic filter discs in your country? I don't know how common they would be but at least someone in the whole country has to be doing some cultivation or lab work involving fungi.

actually here in India even large scale spawn producers use autoclavable bags with PP rings and cotton plugs, I purchase spawn from govt. laboratory and I don't suppose anybody would be using filter discs etc here.

If you're just searching for a filter, there are many sources. What about online? Is that not an option? Ive seen some people use polyfill for filters, what about that? There's lots of filters out there, some, obviously better than others.

Then just use that, drill a hole in the lid and pull a tight wad of filling through. Polyfill , polyester pillow stuffing

Yup, polyfill is always an option. Just wanted to know if that envelope is Tyvek. Because if it is Tyvek, I can use it in many ways for my myco works.. Thank you friends ..
